Everyone with a CF order went out and has tracking. Ramy is harassing NRG with the details of how we're going to return the order they gave us for a correct order. Sorry about the delays, I'll keep you guys in the loop.

They sent dampers for stock hoods. 7 of the 8 chrome dampers we ordered were for aftermarket. I'm holding on to all of them incase they want the whole chrome order back.

People, please be patient. These large orders take time. GBs are by no means an easy thing to coordinate. So we'd appreciate your continued patience until we have information to update you with.

Thanks,

I'll have to take you up on that...that's right at the intersection of Glebe and Wilson or Fairfax Dr I believe? Right near Ballston mall, correct? Isn't the shop on both sides of the street though? One on the mall side of Glebe, and one on the other? Should I just look for an FD?

Yes sir, right next to Ballston Mall. It's actually off of N. Glebe, we have the Body Shop and Pre-Owned on one side of Glebe and up one streetlight is Service and The New Car Showroom. Me and the FD are in service in the Main Shop, just look for the Big Mercedes star emblem and the parking lot with rows of blue parking lifts, and a BB FD!!

Paul, if there's enough interest I can run another GB. Otherwise, you can always order them through me directly via placing an order on my website... www.FDNewbieImports.com. Of course, it will be at the standard price, not the reduced GB price.

Ramy,

Speaking of reduced price what about the refunds for the people who paid $150 for the original RE group buy?

Hey Juiceh, the overall quality is pretty good, the brackets are solid, the aluminum extensions got a lil loose on me when I was test fitting, but some loc-tite does the job. It opens smooth and closes smooth, overall I am pleased with it. Woulda loved to check out the RE kit though.

Rammy, since you guys have been talking with NRG do you think it is possible for you guys to maybe convince NRG to develop a set for FCs? NO ONE makes any for the FC. There is a GB interest thread in the GB Interest section and there are many interested. It may actually happen with this other company but you know how these things can fall apart sometimes. I'd post the link but it has links to other venders in it etc. and thats not cool to post in a paid vendors section.

I MAY be able to (or maybe even make my own! hehe). I'll look into it once I finally close up a few of these GBs (which should happen in a few days hopefully). After those few days, feel free to post a thread in my section so I can remember.

CF guys you will be receiving your refunds in a matter of minutes. Chrome guys, we've got some info from NRG, I just need to talk with Ramy first, but I think he's in the middle of an emergency.

EDIT: Or he's posting online and forgot about me...
