Hey Adrock and Park, Carlos just posted in the other thread if you haven't seen it already. In short, he says we're waiting on the coating facility and the ability to only do one color at a time. He says that 200 wheels are getting coated, but the group buy only has 30 buyers at the most. I'm not happy if we have to wait longer so he can get some stock. He ends the post by saying be patient a few more weeks and we will have the wheels and the wait will be worth it. What do you guys think?

Park2670 · 06-26-2008, 11:47 AM

I am so sick of waiting. I should have just kept my 230s and been happy

nsanbyker · 06-26-2008, 11:53 AM

I hear you. I could've had some nice volks quite awhile ago for near the same price. Oh well, live and learn. From now on, I'm only buying if they have stock or not paying until the order is ready to be shipped.

Thats awesome because in two weeks I will be in Lake Powell....

so they will probably be stolen by the time I get back. Of course after all these delays and all this waiting.. the ONE week I am out of town...

Park you at the office today? I was going to swing by and order some center caps.

If you trust us, maybe we could pick them up and hold them for you? Where do you live?

Park2670 · 06-27-2008, 08:52 AM

I could pick them up for you Adam.

Park2670 · 06-27-2008, 08:52 AM

Id get to post pictures before you.

I guess I will see when we actually will get them.. knowing Carlos it will be 2 months from now.

Park2670 · 06-27-2008, 11:23 AM

The sad thing is that's what I was thinking while I was writing that

I hate to say it, but given Carlos' record, you guys are probably correct. Carlos needs to learn how to balance things

Hey Parker - Do you happen to know if BOM has the little metal tire valve stem caps in stock?

Park2670 · 06-27-2008, 05:03 PM

Metal caps? Such as for non tire pressure sensor stems? We usually do. The tpms ones are hard to come by. Just call Julie or Tony in the parts department

Cool - Thanks much!

Das M · 06-28-2008, 11:35 AM

Good morning my peoples. We went to Tepanyaki last night, drank Sake and Sapporo, and ate way too much, then we watched Wanted. Not too bad. I love Fridays.

SLCGoonski · 06-28-2008, 11:41 AM

I saw Wanted yesterday afternoon. Not bad, but a little bit cheezy. Saw the play "drowsy chaperone" last night at capitol theater. Pretty funny, considering it was a musical play.

that place is nice, but you should try kobe's. I am more fond of it!

Park2670 · 06-29-2008, 01:34 AM

Wow. Another eventful day.

SLCGoonski · 06-29-2008, 01:48 AM

installed some lockdowns for our bikes in the back of the acura today. hit up lowe's for some project supplies...but didn't get to bed bath and beyond...just not enough time.

laidback · 06-29-2008, 02:05 AM

Any Utahn's here going to Mfest this coming August?

Park2670 · 06-29-2008, 08:38 AM

I am planning on heading down for SEMA too! We should plan something fun down there.

TurboFan · 06-29-2008, 06:06 PM

1 week until I leave for UT! Leaving Cincinnati on July 7, arrive SLC late in the evening on July 8th. Two very long days of driving....Driving out in the Titan, pulling the bimmer on a flat bed transport. Going to be a very loooong drive in a truck pulling 12-14mpg with a trailer and $4 gas

Oh well, looking forward to getting to SLC. Truck arrives with all our crap the following week, something like the 15th or 16th. Lots of time to paint and carpet.
