Default US-distributor for raceparts wanted !

I know there are some dealers and dealers friends/employees on this board...Maybe this message goes out to the right one...

The owner of the german company "Idol-Motorsport" is a very good friend of mine. I am a satisfied customer, driver and member of the inner circle there too...

We develop high quality race-suspensions with support from Eibach (aluminium or steel) and high-grade steel exhaust systems for our beloved Hondas... DC2, EP3, NSX......civics, crx...etc. Further throttle-bodies, cf-parts, intakes and some other stuff...

Some of our racecars run terrific laptimes with Idol-suspension work and a few people from US asked for ways to purchase our parts...
Our tracks are famous and scary... Nürburgring, Hockenheim, Spa... Those are the test tracks for our work.

The best way, so we think, is to find a distributor who is interested to send us one of their suspension (or whatever) in exchange to one of ours, so we can see if we can help each other to make good money and happy customers...

This is not a project to be pulled through within the next days or weeks... But I would be happy to begin to talk to interested people and see what`s possible.

----

Mods: I think this is R related, because the main idea is to ship over suspension parts to US or other locations to be purchased by R drivers...members of this board. Please don`t close or erase this post. Thanks

Got any pics of just a few things Idol has developed? I'm sure some of us here would like to see. A list of products would not hurt either.

There is a new website coming up.. It`s already upped but not complete at all..

Please click on the main-page on "Information"... There you`ll find some thumbs.
Look out for the english flag for translations behind the thums..

You find more pics and prices in the "Online Shop"..

We are building up this website in the next weeks until it`s complete.

Hope, this helps

I don't know much about coil-overs, but those pieces look like quality!

It is.. Every coilover is a single-production.. The customer has to order and parts are made for him

the suspension looks nice, but i think for me anyway the big problem would be the servicing of the suspension...are they rebuildable?? where would i send them...back to germany?? would any spring manf. fit on the perches? are the rates customizable on the springs?
