Whats going on with Ben / KARACK

so 4/3 i sent him a pair of front bumper lens so he can put those led lights on them. He got them the next day4/4 and replied that they would be done in a few days and they would be sent out. 3 weeks pass and nothing so i contact him. he replies 4/30 says he has been really busy but they are almost done and will be shipped out shortly. another week passes and nothing, no shipping number, no notice that they are on the way, nothing. I email him again, i let him know that i feel i have waited long enough and if i dont receive them soon i will be forced to post in this section. I let a few days pass and no reply, so here i am. 5 weeks later almost still waiting for my lights that have been paid in full as i need to in oprder for the work to be done. I do not want any cash back, all i want is what i paid for and for him to stop lying to me. if your gonna do something, do it, dont tell me your gonna do something and then not, that is lying. Sorry it had to come this far. hopefully this doesnt become a trend of yours. As i noticed you have a big fan base, so i was expecting this to happen.


also mods, feel free to go through pms to verfiy all im saying, or i can copy and paste. lmk

done and sent, PMed you tracking. sorry for the delays.

i did attempt to get them done in the few extra days since i last PMed you, unfortunately i also have other customers trying to get me to finish their work also. by that i don't appreciate being called a liar and is just another reason why i will be closing this shop this winter. i work my *** off and get paid very little(admittedly by my own doing, i try to do the best i can for as little cost as possible to my customers). i started the business because i enjoyed working on the cars but lately i have stopped enjoying the work due to lack of income/appreciation even working 7 days a week, while my own car sits and rots in the garage as i don't even have time to do the things i want to on it.

i do try to communicate as best i can but i can't always respond in a timely manner.

all that aside, i hope you do enjoy the FTPs.

i'm going to correct this, i could have replied on the status but i figured it would have been better to simply let you know when they were finished rather than to say it would be another day or two.

yes indeed i have received a pm from him stating he has shipped them out this morning. Also I know that no one likes to be called a liar, and if there was a term i could have used that i felt better fit the situation, i would have used it. But when you tell someone more than once that they will be out and they are not, and you do not communicate that there will be delays. What would you expect the person on the other side to think???

Also I am really glad that you did make this mod public for the time you did, as this unique mod is exactly what my ride needs to stand out. Thanks again, and I never meant any disrespect, but i wasn't hearing from you and things seem to happen when they are made public. Sorry to hear your closing down, hope you get a chance to finally work on you ride and make it the way you want. Hopefully this doesnt make for an awkward meeting next week.

Well all's well that ends well and i hope every one has a nice day

it happens, i know my intentions weren't for this modification to take as long as it did but they really are a pain in the *** to do and time consuming which led to other things being put off for other customers who then ride my *** to get updates on their projects.

these days it's easy for little things to take longer than anticipated because it seems everything is working against you on these cars which always need more work than you expect. i do apologize for it taking so long in the end and having to put them off for a bit when i promised it would be more timely than i said it would, sometimes i just have to lube the squeaky wheel until the next one squeaks.

Thank you for not ignoring this thread, Karack. Happens all too often these days.

Issue resolved, thread closed.
