A little ups for Dale @ EVOSport

I just wanted to thank Dale at EVOSport for helping me out over the past month or so. The customer service and followup has been great. Everyone here knows I am pretty picky and usually sit on a project until I am pretty sure (not that it helps), but this deal was just too easy. I got exactly what I wanted with no concerns at all.
I had asked Dale about the Vorsteiner front lip and he gave me a fair quote for painting it black. I then asked for an all CF one and he went back and looked into it. He came back and said they would make one for me, if I really wanted it. I said I did and he was off. Never asked for a deposit or anything. He sent me regular updates on the status and potential cost. Then, last week, he PMs and says it is here and hot to trot. We never had to negotiate or anything. His first price was fair and it was done. Next thing I know, this sweet package shows up with the lip in it.
I've been dying to see what that lip looks like in all black, so now I'll know.

I will post up some pics of the CF today and hopefully pics of it on the car, soon.

Yup, there are a few dyno shops in town. In that area, I'd go to:

I like them, too (or even better). JBA has recently built a new facility and they have done some work on MBs . Also, it is right in the area that the cat was asking about is all. The first time JBA touched the MBs was funny.
