Anyone In socal willing to help me out?

I am in a situation with Boomer from Mastergrade. I had an issue with my MG2 trunk hazing up and he told me to send it in and he will replace it. Well its been several weeks now and he keeps telling me he will get me a tracking number and he never does. All i do is send him emails and he blows me off. Long story short, I have assumed that I wont ever see a trunk again and he has screwed me over like many other people. I am planning a trip out to LA within the coming weeks and wanting to know if anybody is willing to let me stay with them in the mean time to save me some $$$. My main mission is to deal with this tool bag personally and shut this guy down before he screws anyone else over. Anyone willing to help a fellow member out? Im so frustrated and upset right now, nothing like this has ever happened to me but I refuse to chalk it up as lessoned learned, i need justice to be served and it will be. Other than that would love to hang out for a few days as i have never been to LA! Thanks to everyone who is willing to help!

its a shame... Boomer is one of the few composite craftsmen who can build carbon parts the way they're supposed to be. super light and strong.

xxxxhotelscraztyhookerszzxxx - did you clearcoat the trunk when you got it?

Aaron has first hand experience since he was one of the guys that actually went to see him personally on the issue of the sedan trunk.

i know it's too late now.. but that probably would have prevented the "hazing" you described.

if you get another one (or any real carbon part for that matter) have it clearcoated immediately for UV protection.

xXHotelCrazyXx - sorry to hear about the issues with Boomer. I was on the original sedan CF trunk lid GB and it was a nightmare to put it mildly. I literally needed to call and text daily for months and months. He finally did ship (after about 7 or 8 months) but only after much heartache and pain. On the phone - he seems to be a good guy - but his customer service is horrendous. Keep bugging him daily (which I'm sure you're doing). Keep track of paypal if you needed to send him money - to ensure claims are done before it gets too late.

Too bad - b/c as Sammy mentioned the pieces are nice - but I will never deal with him again.

Hope you the best bro!
