nah, with my windows as dark as they are, i kind of like how it looks like the front/rear windows are one window, and not split up- [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...n/IMG_2133.jpg[/IMG] |
good point
i see the other vendor lurking |
Holy moly! Let me say this once people. Yes its taking us a long time, and yes we have made quite a blunder. But once you all have your products you'll all be happy! Several orders shipping out in the coming days and Bullitt should be getting his any day now. I'm not surprised to see complaints but I guarantee I'm not going to ditch anybody here. Especially since we had Mike (Bullitt) here with his car (several hundred miles from his home).
We all go through some terrible times and always want others to understand and now this is our time that we are hoping some if not most of you can understand. As you can see we have not been advertising and pushing sales for the past few weeks because wea re just working on getting these orders out so we can have a weekend where we don’t have to worry about past due orders. So like I said if those of you who have ordered can please bear with me a tad longer we will have all these orders out starting with B pillars and front valences (which already have been in progress). Feel free to PM me and by the end of this week I'll have a list in our vendor section with names of those who have ordered organized by date, and those who have had their orders shipped out in the same order. And I'm counting on those who will be getting their orders in the coming days to update and post pictures to end this scare. Thanks everybody you so far have all been great! I wish I could have been better myself to you all but now its just time for us to repair the damage and move on with our new product ideas we want to offer. As soon as we get most of these orders out we will be advertising carbon fiber interior wraps. We'll save that for a different day. |
P.S If you want cheaper parts then by all means. But WE ALL KNOW.. that you really get what you pay for. Again bullit is the first to get his order which he should be gettnig any day now and he will post pictures which will mimic the great quality shown in the pictures I have provided a few weeks ago.

Well said john.
Like I said I will be posting up pics and review and DIY for these when they arrive. UPS did not stop by today so I expect them tomorrow. John and his team are working diligently to get these parts out. I have been calling john like every other day to check on the status lol you can even ask John he has got to be tired of hearing from me! Guys be patient if anyone has the right to be pissed its ME! John knows I have invested alot into this project especially my time and my car to have these parts made for our community. Again, have a lil patience I am not upset because I know he will deliver. On a plus you all can rest assured I know where he sleeps lol jk |
BTW those $70 dollar ones are very cheap!!! I mean very little quality. They are super thin overlays and the weave has imperfections. If thats what you want go for it. These are complete replacements not overlays just FYI.
|
mind showing me where the imperfections are...lol
i understand you helped him out with the test car and getting sponsored... you obviously have to back him up.....and speak up for him so, ur word about other overlays is already on the bias side get what i mean?? |
All very good points.. But the pictures tell all...
Im just showing one picture. If you want to see more search B Pillars. http://www.the370z.com/attachments/e...n-370z-038.jpg You can see on the driver side one where the light fixture up above is distorted across the panel. Meaning that theres a wave. If we see a wave like that. We will wet sand it down like crazy until the clear coat is smooth. And then re clear it. Thats why all of our parts go through a double clear coat process which only a few companies do. A layer of clear, it dries, you wet sand it with a flat block, and the shiny left over parts is the low parts. If we see that, we scuff it up with 2000 grit and reapply another clear coat. We wet sand, buff and polish. And tada! Yes every now and then there will be tiny little waves from orange peel since orange peel in the clear coat even after wet sanding is inevitable and what not, but in that picture. I hate to say bad thigns about competitors work, but has anybody ever went to a carnival and you see those crazy mirrors that distort the image? You get my point. Also even though we have proven to take quite a long time. We offer life time guarantee Ours is not an overlay so its not sticking out any more than it should We use premium quality materials And we do something that I have not seen other companies do with their B pillars. Some may like this some may not but we feel that the carbon fiber weave will fit muuuch better if its angled along with the car. The driver side pillar has the weave angled left to right, and on the passenger side we have the weave angled from right to left. So when you look at the car, you see the stance of the car from the driver side is angled from left to right (for aerodynamical purposes) so we have the weave going with the angle of the car and not contradicting the car. I’ll get pictures to show you guys tomorrow for a set I finished today. I’m not trying to start a debate because we all know how debates go on forums. I’m just trying to state the pros of our B pillars. I would never say anything purpousley for another company to lose out since I dont bask in other peoples missery. I know how that feels, so please dont tie my words to the wrong pole. |
thanks for the clear up.... see, posts like that helps for ur sales pitch
sorry if i offended you, but at least i made you post a good reply like the one above.... +1 |
No offence taken bud. Sometimes you have to walk across the hot sand to get to the nice water :D
Rep back! |

Ha stop giving me a hard time!!! :P I'm working on taking care of things one at a time. As you all have seen Im not posting and bumping my threads as much as before trying to get more sales so that we can take care of what we have on hand so far. Lat this week I plan to start pushing for more sales since I'll have a few more taken care of this week. So stay tuned and have a little more patience with us. Watch this little company make a full 180 turn! |

The pictures I took a few days ago turned out worse than I expected but I have some high res photos that I'll upload tomorrow :)
http://i623.photobucket.com/albums/t...g/SSPX1942.jpg http://i623.photobucket.com/albums/t...g/SSPX1943.jpg http://i623.photobucket.com/albums/t...m/SSPX1944.jpg There are two sets of B pillars but I only took a picture of the 3. I'll have better pics tomorrow like I said. These 3 orders are going out tomorrow too :) |
did the orders go out today? if this works out, id consider the rear valence and interior kit...but this time i might wait until you guys start mass producing them. wasnt too much fun being the guinea pigs haha.
|
Hey guys I will have the DIY up in a few days. I have been testing my 3M mounting points and one side is coming loose so I may turn to my trusty Industrial strength velcro that my shop uses on race bikes... I prefer the stuff over 3M anyway. The 3M doesnt seem to like drastic weather change very much like we have been having in GA as of late.

Sorry it took so long to post pictures!

they look nice!
so are they replacements or do they go over top of the existing ones? |
Those pieces look fantastic.
|
Direct replacements! If you want overlays we can shave the sides down for no extra charge. Overlays are much easier to install. With direct replacements tape needs to be strategically placed in order to hold them properly as they don’t bolt in or have any clip hardware. Clip hardware can be glued on the back though. We made a one of a kind fiberglass B pillars custom for a customer last year and he epoxied auto zone clips to the back of his and then just popped them in. I haven’t spoken to him in like eight months so I suppose his idea worked ha.
