obviously if they r so busy that they cant answer ur question they dont need u bud. all im asking is that u show a lil bit of courtesy.

 

Courtesy given when it is due. Courtesy would be updating LAS93 on the status of his $300 deposit.....

 

Mine too on the odula sides hehe. But not cancelling it, just wondering if you guys got it haha.

 

any update on the carbon fiber interior group buy?

 

.......if we just plug our ears and pretend to not hear them they will all go away and stop asking quesitons.......

 

Yep. Bought my differential bushings elsewhere after the poor customer service and contact.

Just FYI.

 

anything...

 

twomuchboost4u, maybe you shouldnt have stepped up if you cant get anyone some real answers.

 

The funny thing is Kevin is still very responsive to me through emails. I told him about the lack of comms on here.

He stated that he has been traveling out of country a lot and his internet is sporadic.

Shame cause they delievered a great product to me.

 

hey lt1rx7 can you ask kevin what he plans to do with the rest of us who have sent in their deposits, this has been a almost a 9 month long GB with nothing more than pictures and promise.

 

Laz93 kevin emailed me back and said you had been contected....is that true?

 

with what smoke signals, I got nothing.

 

I sympathize for those who are waiting, but I'd encourage you to cut this vendor some slack. I, too, had to wait many months for the GT wing group buy, but the vendor did eventually come through and delivered a terrific product. They promptly followed it up by very fast delivery of a follow-on diffuser order (delivery one week after order), because they did have the product in stock.

This is not NAPA or Kragen, these are a couple of folks doing highly custom carbon fibre products for which many racing teams pay a princely sum. If you want custom parts for a niche marque that is no longer produced, you've got to learn patience working with vendors. They are not going to be able to recoup costs by building vast production lines for items like this, or they would have to charge great gobs of money if they did, making this unaffordable.

I've been collecting and restoring cars for a while, so I'm used to this.

The vendor's products are used by TAPPED/GOTO Racing and have helped them win new class records for the RX7 in Time Trials at Thunderhill. That's a solid rep. They are subjected to supply line interruptions and a host of other things that Walmart wouldn't blink at, but when it's just a couple of guys.....

I urge patience and understanding, or take your business elsewhere if you cannot stand it. There really isn't a good alternative, and while berating Chris might make you feel better, it probably won't make him work harder or faster....in fact, I'd start giving you poor service myself.

Excusing **** poor customer service is why the aftermarket industry keeps it up, there is no excuse for not telling the customers what is going on. If the product is delayed, fine but tell me it is delayed dont take my money and disappear.

If you except mediocrity, you will receive mediocrity.

Kevin has stated in multiple emails to me that he has "contacted Las93" and that there is plenty of product complete and ready to ship...that means there is no supply line issue.

If you dont know the situation stay the **** out of the discussion.

 

the only message I recieved was over a month ago saying he is ready to ship never recieved any follow up for final price. not to mention I have talked to the other members who sent in their deposit for the GB and it is the same and only message we have recieved. not to mention I still send him constant emails almost daily but getting tired of this, its ridiculous. please let him know this. cuz hes not contacting me or the others.

and i'm behind you 100% LT1 there is NO excuse for this, at least tell your customers theres a delay not just disappear for over 2 months.if I knew this is how kevin runs his company I would have never come to him to start this GB. i've been out $300 for over 9months now with no product.

 

Not to make excuses and sorry for the delay but I spent the last week and a half in the hospital with my son... I have recieved a list from Kevin and it goes as such.... This is what is on hand and available...

Concerning the Odula side skirts production has not started yet... As soon as Kevin gets back in the states we are going to have a sit down and go over all GB and I will try and get you guys as much info as I can as to where things are and how we can make them move quicker... I understand all your frustration as if I was in the same boat believe me I would be just as angry if not more... Please dont kill the messenger... I will do my best to move things along... Please if you have any questions Email me at my Email previously mentioned... Thanks again...

Chris

Wondering if the FD3S FlexFiber SS1 Front Bumper is still in production?..interested in one.. local pick up available?

 

I pity the day LT1RX7 that your require compassion from someone who holds the same viewpoint as you do. In addition, the use of vulgar language does not make you more eloquent. I do hope you get the products you are seeking and find satisfaction in them.

 

Yes I believe they are still in production... I am not sure if we have any ready but i will find out and let you know...

Chris
