Im glad they have pride in their work as to not send out subquality products. Im cool with waiting myself. I'd totally buy engine dress up CF Replacement parts if they were to offer them. HINT HINT

takimbe 08-25-2009 01:16 AM

still no ship date? last checked up on you guys on the 12th...

noodles 08-25-2009 02:25 AM

with the new process will you still be able to do different types of CF?

Guys I talked to John last night... They have a few sets ready for the epoxy dipping process and they are making 3 more sets once the last 3 sets are made they will epoxy dip the products and then they should be ready to ship. I was told to expect the shipment to go out this week.

Again, this is just what I was told.

m4a1mustang 08-25-2009 08:04 AM

Weren't these things supposed to ship a long time ago?

bullitt5897 08-25-2009 08:10 AM

Yep... John seemed to have had a few problems with some of the molds leaking air into the product so they had to fix the molds and start all over again. Plus Infusion bagging is a new process to them so they are making sure that the products are flawless before they send them out. I am with you guys on this except I have alot more at stake with John at the moment...

m4a1mustang 08-25-2009 08:47 AM

Pretty ridiculous.

They obviously jumped into the deep end and found out they hadn't quite learned how to swim.

SpawnAeroJohn 08-25-2009 09:32 AM

Shipping starts this week and all B pillars will be sent out before the end of next week :)

Before we were hand laying them up and vacuum bagging and then we decided to do infusing to offer the best quality so there are no air pockets or anything. It was a last min change to offer superior quality.

takimbe 08-25-2009 10:05 AM

thanks for the update!

:iagree: Have ANY parts been received by customers yet? This has been going on for weeks. Talk about a tease. It's not all too inspiring as a customer either...I suppose that's why most manufacturers do all this behind closed doors and then reveal the working, high quality product once it's ready for the public.

bullitt5897 08-25-2009 01:48 PM

I am the first set when they arrive I will post up a full review, pics, and install procedures.

Mike,

Did you also purchase the front and rear valences by chance?

bullitt5897 08-25-2009 04:54 PM

I am sponsored by John and spawnaero. I should be receiving every part John sells due to our agreement. So to answer ur question yes I did order those parts too.

Mike

2theextreme 08-25-2009 06:12 PM

Cool....me, too! Just wondered if anyone else had, as well. You've not heard any date when you will be receiving them have you? I sent a message to John but I try to not bother him too much. I have a feeling the wait for these will be very much worth it!

bullitt5897 08-25-2009 07:13 PM

The wait will be worth it! I am hoping John will get these B-pillars out this week so I can get them installed.

Mike

bullitt5897 09-01-2009 02:33 PM

Talked to John a few minutes ago. The original orders for B pillars will be going out thursday. The last set should be built today leaving tomorrow for dipping and clear coating. Once they are dry and go through Spawn Aero's quality check process they will be packaged and shipped. John and team are working hard guys and we should have our parts SOON!!! :excited: John has also had other forums and clients sending them parts for work to be done. They are working hard to get these parts out so lets have a lil more patience... I cant wait to get mine :D

takimbe 09-04-2009 09:32 PM

anyone know if these started shipping yesterday as stated above?

m4a1mustang 09-07-2009 08:47 AM

So did this stuff actually ship like promised or are there new excuses?

bullitt5897 09-07-2009 09:20 AM

Mine has already shipped I hope to have them by wed this week :) stay tuned for a full review plus pics and install tips

2theextreme 09-07-2009 10:49 AM

Sounds like I'm in the same boat as bullitt.....got a PM from John that said next week (meaning this week) my B pillars and front valence overlay go out.

takimbe 09-07-2009 11:01 PM

still havent heard anything...wth?

Shunya 09-08-2009 05:16 AM

:(

bullitt5897 09-08-2009 08:02 AM

Srry to hear that Takimbe I know John has several orders being shipped this week... If you dont have his phone number PM me and I will give it to you ;) good luck bro.

Mike

FuszNissan 09-08-2009 09:00 AM

I think we are all waiting.

bullitt5897 09-08-2009 09:07 AM

Yep, i need to check for my parts when i get home tonight :D

2theextreme 09-08-2009 11:16 AM

We need a "crossing fingers" smiley!

nogoodname 09-08-2009 11:23 AM

Can you please PM me his number? thanks!

bullitt5897 09-08-2009 02:31 PM

Sure also know his phone just finally craped out on him. He should have a new one in a day or two. Trust me if he didn't or doesn't answer ur call it's because his phone has been on the fritz.

m4a1mustang 09-08-2009 03:34 PM

Are you in on it? lol...

Ummm...Ok....:shakes head:

Maybe you should stop the shilling and let John speak for himself. His credibility here is slipping by the day....Shame too...looked like he had real potential to develop a following here..

spearfish25 09-08-2009 04:59 PM

mass exodus at this point

In my experience, the 'phone is on the fritz' response is usually the last you hear before they disappear.

Seeing how this has gone, I'm now offering home-made carbon fiber parts. Send me your money and I'll be happy to string you along for three months while I make my move down to Mexico.

takimbe 09-08-2009 05:15 PM

if no ones gotten their orders by this week, i swear im going to file a complaint to get my money back from paypal based on no delivery of goods. I feel that I have been extremely patient, as has everyone else here. I would just get my money back and buy it from 370Z source. at least when they have something in stock, I know id get it!

I hope the mods from this site are seeing this...have they even been paid for sponsoring them?

It really is ridiculous. I know a lot of you may be annoyed with my posts as I have no skin (money) in the game, but it just frustrates me to see situations like this. This is either a scam (looks more and more like it every day) or just a case of two guys who got in WAY over their heads. It's either one or the other... there is nothing else.

nogoodname 09-08-2009 05:31 PM

bit more than they can chew is most probable
