They are being sent out on Thursday Morning. You should receive them by Friday. I believe your hood was also next day if it wasnt the issue of the bus not being able to fit the box.

Hang tight!

no worries, I completely understand your position, and everyone else's. ITS BEEN A LONG TIME!!!

I'm quite bothered about it. I can only do so much to hurry this process. I wish I had more control over this project.

Yeah the Inverted style hoods are on my mind aswell. You said the hood was slightly touching the oil cap and that it would be shaved right, will it be enough to compensate for engine tourqe/movement?
$$$$$ How much are they picked up? $$$$

It's done..I should have new pics up next week as it will be raining here for a few days. I'll try to get a close up of the defects in the hood. But will definantly highlight the amazing work the guys at SS Autobody did. All I now need are wheels, and a billit gas cap and my exterior should be DONE! :2thumbsup:

I hope...as does my bank account :werd:

We drilled the holes for the pins in the hood last night...wow that was a scarey process! lol I didn't want to drill such beauty (It's stilla great looking hood) but it HAd to be done!

***Oh and guys a word of caution. BE CAREFUL when you install these pins. They're very soft, and bend easliy. They seem to be made of aluminum. So if you want to keep a flawless showroom look, watch that you don't bend or gouge the pin.

Good Luck!

We've waited soo much time that any other company making us wait that much for a product *we already paid* would have offered us to either refund us, lower the price of the product or offer credit to us on our next purchase as a sign of good willingness. :shrug:

I'll be driving an mx3 all dark grey with a cream hood, ugly! I was hoping the inverted hoods will be done sometime this summer. Newly painted mx3, body kit, with crappy old hood because cf invert's are not done yet. Sucks! Trying to be patient and happy to see some progress is being made with more updates on the group buy forum.
