This is a message to gauge how many Ultima owners would be interested in a set of side scoops if we could fabricate them at approximately half the cost of the 778 pound per set ($1400USD) REVERIE items.

Please email me directly for details and information in order not to waste bandwidwidth on this forum.

Mark Koch kindly fabricated a prototype for the Right Hand side of his ULTIMA which can be seen at:

Hi
How do the intakes attach to the bodywork, does it have to be done by a paintshop.

As I understand it they are bonded in from the inside in much the same way as the grills.

it is not only a difference in cost but also in design (see pics below). I have the Reverie scoops, but a bit customised. They are (too) expensive, but fulfill their purpose and do not adversely affect the Ultima design (IMO).

Agreed - the REVERIE scoops are very well designed, however we are exploring more economical alternatives with similar functionality and cosmetics, but above all did not want to infringe copyright, hence the different design.

Those are more expensive while doing the same job, but looking much better then the cheaper ones...
I say, get a discount on those above, and your Ultima looks better and cool(s) better...
