Has anyone received the FF headers?

I did not get in on the group buy but it seems all the threads I've seen are people selling their place in line. I think there are 3 people currently trying to sell theirs?

The headers look quality, can anyone who has them chime in??

exactly. He did this as a discount and cant expect him to work day/night to get it done in a couple months time. Everyone who bought that it was a great deal, which it is, but expected a month/two turnaround.

This is simple. Did he state it would take X amount of months? If he didn't then he IS at fault. If he did, then people here need to suck it in and stop complaining.

Actually, the group buy organizer told everyone that "worst case" would be two months:

The spots were all filled and confirmed by the group buy organizer on January 11th:

I'm not part of the group buy, so I don't have a dog in this fight - but I've been following this group buy. I can see why some guys are pretty miffed. Another week and and it'll be over two months past due from when some guys were led to believe they'd receive their headers. Nothin' real hard to understand about that. Reminds me of when I was trying to get my product or alternatively, my money back from Vadim. Major PITA.

GLWS, man. I kind of wanted to get a pulley/tune and LTs installed this summer, but I don't think it's going to happen. At least I'll make bigger numbers on the dyno during the cold months.

OMG bro, 6 months??? I would lose it..... So, sorry to hear that chawkins. I hope you get what you need for them. What a shame!

This was a horrible idea to do a group buy for that many people. Why? Because this is not a finished product on the shelf. I mean he's gotta have a jig but, it's too many variables for a one man shop. I'm sure he is a good fabricator but, this amount of orders probably went right over his head.

Only person who came out ahead was the person who started the GB? I haven't read up but, I'm guessing he got his already? It's late and I'm tired so this is just an assumption...
