because of some fartknocker before me I dont have the Porsche luggage set.
No biggie I dont go on trips with it, so nah.
But I kinda need the center counsel bag and the two hidden door bags. I dont care about the 2 or 3 special fit suitcase or the garment bag and that stuff BUT you must order the entire set together, for $6800+tax!!!
and I want a three small bags that are the cheap part of the set. Ebay only has and has had 1 complete set, and chance are nobody will want to split one. I found a current owner that is on his second car and still has the center counsel bag and one hidden door bag...and a dust cover for one of the suit cases, blah. Hes asking $750!!! which is outragous, but no other way I can get em
Should I get it? Haggle down some? Just offer to buy the center bag for like $500 and continue to use Crown Royal bags for the 2 hidden door bags??
Im torn between outragous price and my only real option to get the damn bag

I've done custom sewing in the past. We curently have 3 different sewing machines. Backpacks , Ski/mountaineering stuff, Bike Panniers, repairs, made my own patterns, modified others, etc. At one point had more work than I could get too.
My schedule is funky these days. If not in a hurry, mht work for you. Also depends on when & what you are looking for as to whether I can/want to do something. I am missing my former fabric sources, so depends on your flexibility on exact match. Same for closure...zipper, velcro drawstring, etc. I'd have to see it and go through my raw supplies to see if I already have something. If I have close enought to what you want, once I get the time, it goes real fast.

If that's how you feel about it, I withdraw the offer.
BTW, here are a few shots of some bike panniers I made. These are backpacks/saddlebags for bikes that hang on the rear rack of the bike and made to fill with camping gear. I made the patterns and did all the work. Zippers, straps, bungy, hooks, velcro, etc.
Yea, I guess a drawstring on a little bag might be too difficult. LOL!

These are probably the only 4 guys who can make a thread about car luggage into comedic relief...
