VS8 - Morr Alloys - Group buy

From the 20 or so pictures on e90post, that is what I could gather. It looks like a killer finish and I'm really torn between it and the signature silver, on a sedona red car. Anyone want to chime in on sig silver vs diamond black on sedona?

On a sedona I think darker wheels will be a killer! Hence between those two, I would go Diamond Black.

What about Alpine White. Anyone?

Do you have this option? You are probably right(due to a misconfiguration), just trying to help.


The majority of e90 folks with Alpine white went with signature black.

It's weird. I can't select the Shipping and Handling at all. Mine says: "MORR Corporation does not ship to this address via Google Checkout".

Is there any Diamond Black pic on a car?

After some PM exchanges, I'm starting this new thread. Post here if you're interested. Our goal is 20 for the group buy, in case you haven't been following new_one's previous thread.

Aus, based on your last post to the other Morr thread, can I count you in?

THE VS8 LIST:
1. edge350
2. e82tt6
3. tjockey, 18's
4. charles1 - 18's, 8.5 or 9
5. adrean8j - 18's staggered
6. WAY - 18's, staggered, 07/01/08
7. jlee
8. 350zpilot, staggered

Sorry. Just noticed your question. I'm waiting for 19's.

Also, you should update the original post to include price, deposit info and how long this will last since this post is getting long.

[jlee]

i just keep getting an error what I click checkout ?

Jeff

[Brian N]

So these are going to be 18's correct? Sorry if I missed it earlier.

[jlee]

Is anyone else getting an error at Google Checkout ?

Maybe its only with Smoked Titanium ?

Jeff

[gizmo]

No error for me, try selecting a different finish. Carlos, mentioned that the finish selection doesn't matter until the final payment.

[jlee]

Apparently it is only an issue with Smoked Titanium as a selection.

Google checkout is being a pain in the ass. They locked out my account and want me to scan and send them my last credit card statement. Anyone else have this problem? I'm unable to do that from my present location, so I'm waiting for an asnwer back from MORR to see if I can make the deposit over the phone. I don't want to hold up the group buy and it's going to be a few more weeks before I'm back in the states.

Whoa, no way I'd send anyone a scanned copy of my cc statement. AMEX & Visa already compile enough information on my purchasing habits as is, now google wants a bite.

Thanks, but no thanks.

Did you speak with someone at google checkout, or was this in an email?

[jlee]

they must be closed today..i couldn't get a hold of anyone to figure out the checkout issue

[320Devil]

Correction to my last statment. Listed below is the exact information that google is looking for. Not too sure why my information didn't go through the first time. Perhaps I mis- typed a number, or included my middle name as it's written on my card. In any event, I'm locked out and can't resolve the issue for another few weeks.

This is for 18's. I'm hoping there will be a 19" GB later.

[WAY]

Yeah I am waiting for someone in Morrs to get back to me. Carlos, if you are reading this, and you can't sort out Google Checkout, then how about Paypal or I am happy to do it over the phone!

Thanks for answering my post man. I am hoping to do the same, wait for some 19's. I am sure if Carlos did a group buy including the e46 forums there would be even more interest since our offset/wheel sizes are very similar. Seal Beach ehh? I know that area well. :thumbup:

[ichiban]

I'm hoping for 19s as well.

[jlee]

I am, since I'm selecting Smoked Titanium that particular option does work and results in an error at the google checkout site.

i called you guys too..is there a number to reach you at ?

Guys, the finish selection is set with the final payment. So please send your deposits with any finish. You`ll have about 6 weeks to make your final selection on finish. So if you are not sure just select anything and we`ll update it later.

We have received several deposits already. Lets conclude all of them so we can start production next week. :biggrin:

In the quote above Carlos mentions that you can make any finish selection at this time. It is the finish you select at final checkout that matters...


Give one of the other selections a try and see if it works.

The sooner we get all the payments the better, I'd like to have my wheels before December!

[jlee]

Carlos, I've sent my deposit

How many are left before we start production ?

Thanks

Jeff

Ok Google Checkout is now fixed for me, and I have paid including my $400 shipping. Diamond black at the moment but would be great if I can some info in the mean time about this colour to make the final decision. Carlos, it this actually black or is it very dark grey?

Here is one of the latest batch of pictures Carlos posted on e90post. These are actual VS8s from the GB on that forum. Not the best picture but you can see what I believe to be Diamond Black in this picture.

I believe the one laying flat is Smoked Ti.
