I have been to many allignment shops in my town but they said that the allignment ramp is too high for my car. They are scared that they might scrape my bumper.

Off-road truck places should have the drive over ramp for allignment, right?

Anyway, BUMP for Neal ! I think we should get 20 people by now .

As soon as I placed the order, I was wondering if I changed the scrolldown to the correct card which I placed my card number with. Please let me know if mine was incorrect as well Neal. nasdakboy@gmail.com Thank you,

Bryan

I hear ya man. Personally I think the order should go in the order that people responded. I posted that I'd definitely take one if I have the opportunity to pick it up for the $295, then I get home from class at around 10:45 and realize the spots are almost full. Wasn't expecting that to happen so quickly. I wasn't sure if 20 spots would even get filled but figured I'd get dibs if it did. almost missed out on this one. I have a feeling Neal will be making some more of these puppies. why stop now when there's such demand

I honestly felt terrible writing that letter to those people. Almost like I was writing a letter telling someone there was a death. I really feel terrible, but as you understand, we only have 20. More will possibly be made. But we just cannot afford to keep giving them away at this price even shipping at the price we did we are so close to runing at a loss here. So the pricing for others will probably be back to normal. I don't think I will see another group buy on this.

I personally think you should go with the order on the list. Since we did respond... that's just my opinion.

Damn, unfortunately i got that email!

It would have never have worked. I had this posted in 2 different forums, i would then need to go back and check times of who posted first. Then again i also had 2 or 3 local people purchase it i believe, so then it really would have messed things up and caused a even bigger problem.

well what you should do then is close the group buy and when you get more in stock offer the $295 price to those who placed orders and you had to cancel!!

people ... now dont hate him for that and dont come with suuggestions that are just out of this world, like the one above my post.

life can be cruel and some of you just witnessed it once more. not because he intended it, but because he was just looking to have it run the smoothest without chasing and asking people for the money.

lets hope he's getting a positive feeling from this group buy @ mbworld without any problems like Frank had encountered and hope that he will make another group buy with these ... and even if it some dollars more just so they dont make any losses by doing this.

theres one negative thing though ...now having a CF lip isnt anything special anymore. at least not on this forum

Man, at best you were #24 on the original list. So even if he went in order, you would have still been out.

The way people signed up so quick, something told me to keep an eye on this thread all day. Even still, with me being 1st on the list. I think my actual order was like 15th or so. There is a chance my driveway may not allow for the lip w/o daily scraping. If so, then I'll sell mine for what Neal charged.
