glad you got your money Tim! And I agree with you, it’s hard to fathom supporting a banned member that has screwed people for so long.

As for those getting their trunks next week - we've been hearing that for weeks/months... we'll see I guess. You guys have waited longer for this trunk than it takes for Volks direct from Japan .

I'm shocked that people will actually do business with someone like that. With cf products there are always issues. Is that the kind of company you guys want to deal with when your trunk is damaged in shipping, has a defect, etc.? Really? Jesus, i need to get in the cf business....

No kidding.... suckers.

Volk could design, manufacturer, and ship wheels on the slow boat from Japan faster than this has taken....

^The trunk lid for the sedan was tabled because of all the interest of the MG one re-appearing.

If there is enough interest, it can still be done. I'll put up a thread to see if there is still a true desire to have lid like this made.

Good to see TTrank got his refund. As for everyone else, I'd take the refund instead of the trunk. Get ready for fitment issues next

^^^ hopefully it does happen... then it can be realized how something like this project should go.

Viet was able to make a bumper and rocker panels and didn’t have anywhere near the trouble this trunk has had... I don’t care that its FG vs CF - CF shouldn’t take 5-6 months... and Viet never stole anyone’s money...

I'm sure Mach III can do it right too... that way the sedan community doesn’t have to be coerced into dealing with shysters.

My main goal for this has always been a nice clean lip on the trunk lid. If you were to make one that could save me some time in making my own I would be all over it. Right now my plan was/is to mold one onto my stock trunk.

we can make the trunk, we just werent sure how it would be with mg releasing their trunk too since we're not offering the same prices. trying not to be step on any toes here also.

as for sedans, we'll be making stuff for 03- up to the 37's. just give us some time. we dont want to overwhelm ourselves with too many projects going on at once.

as for the trunk lip, we wont be making that.
