Ultimate Carbon Fiber Trim GB-ALL 3 series!!!

MikeCCrutchfield · 12-08-2007, 07:56 PM

So the day AFTER I finally receive mine from the GB, and you LOWER the price? I seem to remember you saying the price would go up after the GB, so those of us who paid in full in advance are getting screwed over because you made too many extra?

How can I get screwed, let me count the ways:
1) Price
2) Fitment issues galore (I will be posting a message tomorrow about this - err I guess today...it is 2AM here)
3) I had already ordered the pins after you relented and said you would supply them to those that needed them (I had poplar trim)

1) The price did go up, to $649, but now due to the fact that we have overstock we have to let these items go for under cost, it is not the only item we are letting go this, we have spoilers that we have been letting go as well as other stuff.

2)Looking forward to the fitment issues.

3)Sorry.

Don't take it like you got screwed over, the price you paid is very fair. Screwed over is the people who are paying $800 for the fiberglass foundation interior trim. You have plastic injection. Your kit is worth a lot more than what you bought it for.

Bavdom hasnt even sent out the pins yet. I've been postponing my installation for 2 weeks since his promise of sending out the pins 2 weeks ago

You're lucky that you bought the pins, otherwise the trim would still be sitting in your garage...

Like I said, I received my trim from the first successful group buy the day before you did a clearance. Not a normal time-table for clearance, and I did a LOT of waiting for the CF trim, both in the first and the second GB.

See answer 1 above. Those of us willing to put out cash in advance for your FIRST batch barely got ours before your first clearance....

While I was at the dealership, I had ordered the PINS, the rear-fog headlight switch, and the Happy/Angry robot for the back seat. Took them 3-4 days to get all that in.

Bavdom told me that they were manufacturing their own pins for future GB and that is why it was taking so long.

I already placed an order at my local dealership and I cancelled it because of the promise that Bavdom would send it out for free

Your trim shipped at the exact same time as everyone else. I don't know what type of clearance is needed for you to get it, things like that are out of our hands.

Can you respond to my PMs? I don't like to post like this but none of this would happen if you reply to my PMs

I understand what you are trying to say, but I think you are missing part of my point. Regardless, I don't want to drag that out any farther. If you could go to the other thread and reply to my other comments, that would be more constructive. I will keep my negativity out of this thread now.

I will say that the weave looks great...

It all depends, we are working at full steam to try and get these done before the holidays. My boss informed me today that the shop will be closed for the holidays, so production will halt as well. The only area of BavDom that will be open is me, to answer any of your questions. I'll post tomorrow exactly from when to when the shop will be at halt.

I understand your concerns, if I read that and only that I would be really concerned too. However, there is a side not yet seen. I've posted a reply on the thread, and am resolving the issue. Thank you for being a reasonable person

daheechang · 12-18-2007, 04:23 AM

Bav Dom, i've pm'd you at least 5 times in the past couple days. please, please please respond. If you can't supply me with the kit, then please say so, i would love to give you my business but if you're not interested or are out, please let me know so i can search for alternatives. thank you.

I don't know what's wrong with googlecheckout, maybe it's your email? I've sent you the invoice at least five times. Can we try paypal? Thanks.

daheechang · 12-18-2007, 06:02 PM

pm'd you back, i'd rather do google, and i've recieved google checkout from other vendors numerous times so i'm sure it's not my email address. perhaps one more try and then if not then paypal. and also, any update on teh fitment issues that people have commented on? you said in a previous pm that they are oem fitment, so i'm assuming they fit such as oem would. thanks!
