Nope, there's e90 335.

same here.. i'm also beginning to get concerned. Where are the kits tok!? we appreciate the time and extra effort taking into consideration for the best possible kit and fitment to be made, but we've been told certain eta's which have only been set back. Can we get more of a definate answer to when we can be expecting these kits?

+1

I'm also moving out soon and will visit my parents in Korea for summer (probly 15th of june~end of August).

If I can't get it before june 15th, then I will see the kit after end of aug.

What a sad...

canucklion · 05-27-2007, 05:09 PM

you guys should get more discount, seriously, all you early depositers basically financed the operation, without you guys, they would've had to come up with the funds themselves

$1000 USD shipped & painted.

ah-ha~

GTx08 · 05-27-2007, 05:24 PM

I'm also disappointed with these delays. Although it is to be expected with such a fabrication, failure to meet promises is very discouraging. Like the guys above have mentioned, if we receive our kits in mid-june that would of been a 3 1/2 month wait.

As far as discounts go for early depositors (I believe I was #2 or #3?), I would not be opposed to additional discounts, but it appears that we are already receiving an awesome deal. Now if it was discounts for accessories? I am opened to their various interior trims.

uhaulball · 05-27-2007, 05:29 PM

yeah the wait is a bitch. but its to be expected when theyre designing their own designs, and manufacturing them. in the emails theyve shown us their progress so its not like theyre sitting on their asses, we can see the proof of them constantly improving the design and materials.

d3l0n · 05-27-2007, 07:53 PM

Guys if this is the approximate hope date, Know to expect way more updates closer to that date or so. Especially mounted or fitments.

My guess estimate; it will take about 1 week to do the fixes and about 10-12 days to manufacture all 20 kits for everyone in this Group Buy.

Yes, the final product surface will be all white as shown in the pictures.
we are going to have a 2-3 minutes commercial video install on an AW 330i.

I whole heartedly agree with everything you just mentioned. But, when setbacks start to mount, you can’t expect your clientele to be happy. Providing proof of constant improvements and not meeting deadlines are not the same. If you're a project manager and you fail to meet deadlines, chances are you’re out of a job. If you’re a company, it could mean losing investors or even going out of business. Clients/investors only care about the quality of the product and the product meeting its release date.

For those who are unable to bear the wait, ask for your deposit back. It's as simple as that. As for me, I'll continue to patiently wait, because the kit looks spectacular.

P.S - Tokion, where you able to get pictures of the kit mounted on a car yet?

tokion · 05-28-2007, 03:15 AM

hey guys, i know how painful for you to wait for the updates. Not just you, myself get impatient too.

We had some road block last week; we were unable to test the second fitment due the car shortage. But we were able to fixed the first time issues, that 's a big win for us.

The first time we tested bumpers it didn't fit because the material we used were too stiff. That's why we have to came up with a new material.

I don't agree with your comment canucklion.

The deposit only paid for less than 10% of the project.
do you know how much and how many mould we wasted for this kit alone?
do you know know how much time we spend on the designs, R&D and labor?

s4iscool · 05-28-2007, 09:17 AM

Sure let everyone know, Im curious!

canucklion · 05-28-2007, 09:40 AM

^, so am I, let everyone know

daheechang · 05-28-2007, 12:12 PM

I'm sure all of us agree that you guys are putting forth a great effort towards producing a quality product, however we would like to get some more assurance when it comes to when we can expect the kits, and the development of it. From your past success w/ the e92 kits, we know that this kit will be killer so we're all just excited for our turn
