Ahh! All is now clear!  I had't realised that you were the vendor. The group buys are usually one of the members setting something up with a third party! Do you anticipate getting more? TDV6 SE 09MY

Whilst it is correct to say that I'm the 'vendor', I am simply a disco3 member who has run a few group buys for the benefit of other members with zero financial gain. I saw these pipes on another thread and decided I wanted them myself, then a few others said that they wanted them too. Since I have been known to organise the odd group-buy here and there, I met peoples expectations again 
I don't do this for a living and I don't want to do it again. 
If you really want them asap, call Trillogy (01280 822865) and ask for a pair of B144s. I think they are about £86 pair  Otherwise, do what I did and spend about £800 of your own money to get the price down and then hope that you can get people (who have said they will pay) to do just that.  The older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom

My tubes have arrived via City Link this morning (many thanks once again JMC). Only downside was that my wife happened to be in my office this morning (1st time in months) & signed for the parcel when the delivery driver came to reception! I now have to think of another imaginative excuse for throwing money into the money pit known as the "Disco 3"
I appreciate that they are not everybodies cup of tea - but i think they look sweet

S'what happens when you spread the word Al.
But how many D3's have you seen with Disco3 stickers?
Bet you'll see 10 times less with twin pipes.
But you can always claim, you were first.
Thanks Al for sharing that with us. slowly re-building my gallery after the wipe out !!!!

Not a prob Ron. I know there's others (Spotter for one) that run 19" RRS alloys, but in over 12months I havnt seen one (and when I met up with Spotter, his were in being refurbed), and I've never seen a disco3 sticker other than my own, so theres plenty of space for us all.
Hope your pipes look OK.

Nick
looks like you've left yours slightly lower than I have mine (unless its the light and angle of pic). I only have about a 8mm gap between pipe and bumper. No issues with vibration.
