Back on Track

Okay everyone, I talked to NGP today and they confirmed that the RGM Bumper Covers are available, but not stock items, so there's nothing new here. The person that I talked to said that I needed to call back and talk to the sales manager about the payment and delivery details of the "Group Buy" and I will do that. I will also find out what they meant by "fitment issues" with UK vs. US bumpers in the earlier posts.

Here's where we are...I went through the thread and there are nineteen of us who have expressed interest, and a couple of folks want multiples, so I count 25 pieces if everyone is still in. Here's the list:

one2many - 2005 Passat Wagon
aja8888 - 2005 Passat Wagon
GrampaPete - 2006 Jetta
actualsizeaudio - B5 Wagon, 2010 JSW
gerwazy - 2005 Passat Wagon (5 pieces)
truman - 2005 Passat Wagon
WYTDI - 2004 Passat Wagon
deming - 2005 Passat Wagon
KCMike - 2004 Passat
brawnwgn - 2004 Passat Wagon
sunrg - 2005 Passat Wagon
Lmandrake - 2005 Passat Wagon
sirpuddingfoot - 2005 Passat Wagon
zindude - 2005 Passat Wagon
DeliveryValve - 2005 Passat Wagon
Smokerr - 2005 Passat Wagon
wncav8er - 2004 Passat Wagon
johnboy00 - 2005 Passat Wagon
1854sailor - 2005 Passat Wagon, 2001 Golf

Please let me know if we are all still in this and if the list is correct. GrampaPete, KCMike: Sedan or Wagon? Feel free to PM me.

1854sailor they do not have one that fits the 2001 US Golf bumper cover. Been there and tried it. :( The US bumper protrudes out more than the EU bumper.

The Passat Variant does fit. I don't see any listing for JSW, it will be a gamble on the Golf Variant fitting it.

Im still in. 2004 Passat Wagon. Any chance of getting one for a North american 2001 Jetta Sedan as well. I wonder if it will have the fitment issues that the Euro vs NA golf does, as decribed by mogolf

2004 wagon, not 2005, if it makes any difference. Still in.

Not a problem, I'll add you to the list. I'm still waiting to hear back from NGP on the pricing as well as payment and shipping particulars. If everyone is still in, we've got over 25 pieces, so we might be able to get more favorable pricing.

Okay, here's where we are. NGP did get back to me this afternoon. However, they are putting their shop back together and doing inventory after a show last week and they didn't have time to call RGM. Right now, we are at 17 pieces confirmed with the possibility of another 6. I'll know the price break points tomorrow, but I don't imagine that there will be much of a difference between 17 and 23 covers.

Yeah- they never got back in touch with me either after trying to resurrect this whole order and contacting them on July 1st.

I spoke with them again last week and at that time I had requested 15 covers all for wagons and all black in color. Open to the payment options and wanted to make the individual transactions simple for both parties.

Still waiting on a response to the email contact info that he requested.

:)

Just want to make sure we are ordering the color Black.

Should look really nice. Hope the exhange rate is good.

If I don't hear back from them today, I'll e-mail RGM directly and see if they have any other distributors in the US.

Any Vendors Watching This Thread?

Whatever it takes. I was wondering if maybe one of our established vendor members might want to take this on.
