wut do u want an update on lol, theres nothing to update



i dont mean to sound like a dick but its reality, plus it was a holiday week, thus which makes everyone busier, b.c they have 4 days to do 5 days of work i know im still catching from month end, and now i have year end next week, Not to mention the jobs i have ligned up before break up, so give them time, theyll come through like they did last year, and its if u dont wanna wait, the ss hood is already cheap from them

k...trunks are a no go for a 3 mo. period unless we place a special order. right now...no manufacturer has any available... we can place a special order with them...but we were given a wait time of 3 months.

the hoods we have gotten a GB price on and we are still waiting to nail down a shipping price as the price of shipping everywhere is starting to increase due to fuel prices.....
still working on getting you guys a good deal....
wish it wasnt taking this long...but unfortunately its out of our control.
will be in here posting as soon as i find out...

aight thanks donna.. thats what i was wantin to hear.. would there be a 3 month wait for the trunk if i ordered that from somewhere else or is that due to the fact there is a carbon fiber shortage?

o and i have a friend that just got the ss hood from ca and it had two spots on it where the paint or dye didnt get put on it and its just white carbon fiber.. is there anythin he can do bout that?

unless the place you find has them in stock already, you will probably be waiting just as long. and if they do...its probably the only one they have. make sure you ask if its in stock ready to ship...or ready to order but has to be shipped from a manufacturer. if it has to be ordered, it will indefinately be a long wait.
not sure if its the cf shortage or just the lack of sales and no product due to slow sales in the past...I dunno. it could be a number of things.
all we know is no one has enough to stock us for a GB.
there may be 1 or 2 floating around somewhere but no where near what we would need.
good luck finding one.

we now have a manufacturer...need a locked shipping price ...^^^ above post.

there is a process to this before setting one of these up if the items arent pre-stocked...
1. find a manufacturer who is a. willing to go into a group buy with the vendor and offer the pricing which will work all around and b. who can support the demand with the product

2. shipping cost/ bulk cost for the order must be agreed upon...

As with the CF shortage which has been going on for a while... cf hoods, trunks, and anything else made with CF is limited. ive said it like 10-15 times on the forum before.
if no one has it...then filling an order of 10-15 hoods and trunks is impossible.

The trunks as i said...a no go...some companies will have 1 or 2 in stock...but that is it. we can not get them unless people want to wait for them...and since no one wants to wait and i forsee this all turning on us...we cant do the trunks at this time.

what people need to remember is we are working with a very limited product which will continue to be limited...not to mention that now pricing is going up on these products....simple economics ...
the less in circulation, the more the manufacturer will charge,...because...well...they can.
