I was looking at some Venaci wheels...after checking out the thread which I believe is locked now, I will not be getting them no matter what.

I am not questioning that vendor concerns should be aired. HOWEVER, THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO DO IT.

I asked three times to get on the group buy and I have yet to get a response about it. I wanted it at first but now I don't because UAM doesn't give a crap.
You have been PM'd...

This is why I addressed the concerns and issues in Jakes post. We value our customers and their experience with us. If we make a mistake we own up to it no matter how much we may not like it. Mistakes were made in the timeframe and delivery department.

We are also not as big as some may think... This is a crazy time of the year for us as we have several project cars that have been getting ready for SEMA.

As for the Venaci ordeal you can PM me and I can give you the real rundown on what happened. Many members who came down to Z nats heard the truth and have decided to lay off VIP because of it. Do I agree with how it was handled NO... but thats a conversation for PM's if you are interested.

Mike

Yes I started this thread purely to do a review for Andrew and UAM. I do plan to keep it this way and didn't want it to turn into a replica vs real thing deal because quite frankly I'm on the same page with Andrew K that it has been DISCUSSED AND DISCUSSED thread after thread. I only want to give me two cents with the experience that I had with this particular order. I know mistakes has been made but they were properly address by Mike and Andrew themselves which I have nothing against them now. We all make mistakes, one thing I didn't understand was that I was promised to be contacted last night regarding whether or not I can pick up my spoilers but I never got a call back like I was promised. It's almost like a car dealership saying "hey we'll call you once your car is delivered but when the car is at the lot they never call to tell you to pick it up. Anyways back on topic. Lets let Mike and Andrew do their thing and I can tell you I will do business with them again because the quality and finish product is above and beyond. Just I hope I don't deal through that same channel again. But to answer Andrew K's question. I am going to try my bestest to make it out to the November one. I literally have been so freaking busy. And trips Thanks! I do miss you guys.

The carbon weave is really wavy.

Are you sure those panhead screws you used aren't going to pull through the carbon at speed?
