I paid the original $350 or whatever it was but I haven't received anything yet. I think it's still set up to go to my Mom's house and she said she hasn't gotten them yet. I can give you my new address if you want. I'll PM BlueRex.

^Alright wiseguy, that's enough outta you! LOL

Sorry I never made it up to see you Ramy, I had to fix stuff on my house to sell it before I moved out here to CO. But the car is running great, aside from some boost issues but I got a nice single to put on there now. Mmmmmm.

EDIT: payment sent.

^Did you pay the second time, to cover the added costs (of shipping I assume)? That's what I had to do. I thought I had read that only certain people needed to pay again and those people would be IM'd, I was wrong haha. Might wanna check on that.

OK, still haven't gotten mine. However, if you shipped them through USPS that could be the problem. The idiots keep saying my address is vacant even though it's updated in their system online and I've talked to them over the phone and in person now too. Anyway, I hope I get them soon.

speedjunkie, check your door. It says they tried to deliver it today, but no one was home...so they're gonna try again tomorrow. You should find a doortag/delivery attempt notice somewhere at your place.

Also, plz guys...posting that you haven't gotten your parts yet after we've posted that they've shipped won't help them get to you any faster. A little patience please...

Thanks,
~Ramy

Did you guys ship Fedex? I did get a tag on my door today, but I thought it was for something else I ordered that shipped Fedex, maybe it's these.

The main reason I brought this up is because of USPS, I wasn't sure how you shipped it. The last time those boneheads did this to me one of my parts got shipped back and I wanted to let you guys know just in case that happened. Thanks Ramy.

And I hadn't gotten any notification, in this thread or by PM, that my order had shipped anyway.

Yes, we use Fedex for ALL domestic shipments (due to tracking & insurance reasons). And yes, you did indeed get a notification in this thread that your order had shipped. First post at the top of this page

BlueRex will be by to update you guys w/ more specific info shortly.

Actually that's a negative Ramy. Might wanna check out when I paid, it wasn't until after that post, so in fact I DID NOT get notification. Mission and I were the two with questions in the last week and I didn't realize I had to pay until after that post, so how did I get notification that it had shipped? I'm not trying to start **** with you, I'd like to think you and I go back a few years even though we've never met, but please stop trying to make me look like I don't know what I'm talking about when I do. When I said I hadn't gotten it yet, I wasn't trying to start anything with you guys nor was I trying to make you look bad, I was just stating I hadn't received them yet and I wanted to know if that was due to a mixup with shipping or some other reason. Some people talk **** about you or to you, but I have never done that...as a matter of fact, IIRC I've supported you when others have talked bad about you...so please stop being so defensive. Thanks.

Woaaah...slow down dude. I was just messin w/ you. And my bad if you paid after that post. I think you looked a little too much into my comment; it was just a gentle "poke" at you, not an attempt to make you look bad. Sorry if my "e-tone" didn't come off accurately as I would have wanted it to.

I still don't get why people are surprised at this... Do you guys really know how much it costs for a 100% pure CF piece? Which means you'd make a mold of the original piece (a VERY expensive mold), then HAND LAY carbon fiber, layer upon layer, w/ vacuum bags and the whole 9? That would cost a grand EASY...not including any of the fancy add-on parts like an LED, wiring, or a mirror.

firzen, check w/ BlueRex to make sure everything's in order.

FDNewbie, BlueRex,

Just to confirm you gentlemen- did you send me mirrors for the FC or for the FD? I was inspecting the mirrors I received from you a couple weeks back and I noticed that the mirrors have instructions for the FD on them instead of the FC...

I haven't tried fitting them yet but I have taken them out of the package and inspected them and I come across this:



I didn't take a picture of the instruction sheet but it does say it's for the FD.

Is this correct? I remembered I explicitly order mirrors for the FC- what happened? Thanks for clarifying.

Ramy, I'm still here. At least let me know you haven't forgot about this one.

Thanks.
