Edit: 2/15 --- Joel said that he can leave off the holes on the tops upon request at no additional charge however the deadline to do this is 2/21 and it also eliminates the groove. If you want this options please add "/no holes" to the end of your order.
Edit 2/16 7:30AM --- At the request of the vendor this GB will end at the end at midnight Feb 28. He will be running a large batch with shipment at the end of March. As we get closer to that time I will send everyone a PM requesting your e-mail/shipping info to put a list together so that individual invoices can be e-mail to you by the seller.
Edit 2/16 2:15pm --- Added rendering of the 4R etching HERE is the link to view it.
Edit 2/16 7:45 --- hit the 20 person mark!! We are ago. Also, in regards to the 4th gen thing: Bad news for 4th gens... The 5th gen knobs won't allow them to select 1. A little too long. I'll make a specific 4th gen shifter, but I need a little time to make it happen. Won't be able to pull it off for this group buy.
Edit 2/18 7AM --- Since we have hit the 20 person make a couple people have asked about payment so instead of continuing to re-type it I I will post it here. At some point this weekend you will receive a PM from me requesting your e-mail address + shipping address and confirming your order. Once i have received everyone's PM's back I will send this list over to Joel and he will be sending you individually the instructions for payment/invoice/ext.
EDIT 2/21 12pm Update from the Vendor.
"Machining of the parts is being started this week. The payment requests will be sent on March 6th or 7th, so if there are late comers I can accept orders until March 4th or 5th as long as it is a standard.
My plan is to prep everything for anodize (glass bead blasting for the matte parts, etc) the week of March 7th to 11th, and submit them for anodize either on the 11th or 14th.
I would expect to have them back and have shipping completed on March 28th.
All packages will go with tracking, and take 4-10 business days to arrive depending on where they are going."
Edit 3/28 --- Shipping update from Joel --- "They are not quite done being anodized and etched as of this afternoon, and are going to take at least a few more days. As soon as I have them back I will get them shipped as fast as I can, and everyone will get an email with the tracking. I'll snap some pictures of them with the etchings as well. I will get you another update by Friday, and I'm hoping to start shipping them this weekend.
Please pass on my apology for the delay. The group buy ended being a bit bigger than I expected, but I'm thankful for the orders and am looking forward to getting these all out and into your rigs."
Edit 4/1 Here is the latest. "The knobs are in the final stages of laser etching today. I am hoping they finish the batch by this afternoon so I can ship them this weekend. The boxes are folded up, the hardware is bagged up, just waiting for the batch to hit the shipping bench and then the tracking numbers will start flying!"
Disclaimers --- I am not associated with Joel/Ellis Precision I just happened to think these are awesome and am going to order a set and figured we may be able to all save a little money this way as several other members expressed interest.
