Just waiting on the final part of my order, the front lip.

Heck for all i know they bought a few BMW performance ones and stamped a sticker on them to appease a few of us.

I wouldn't complain if that was the case! a $1350 part for 1/3rd the price!

infinitekidM2C · 02-09-2010, 11:11 AM

lol..yeah those people are good!

My point was that that the diffusers were just a clever cover to gain our trust and the lips like unicorns and four leaf clovers do not exist and its all a fantastical scam...ha

BMW86 · 02-09-2010, 04:40 PM

Every promise ever made has been broken. It's getting onto mid February now... I really would like my lip, and my diffuser, and my mirror caps now

ulrichd · 02-09-2010, 05:38 PM

I am going to give it another week and then I am jumping on another splitter GB. I'll be fair and not post a competitior's GB link (hint it's in the photos and video section). I like the iCarbon version better but this post now has 55 pages, enough said.

infinitekidM2C · 02-09-2010, 06:02 PM

We need a solid timeline to jump ship. This is becoming rediculous and if you read the last long "update" we were not provided any actual update on the lips so we don't know

1) Status of the Lips
2) ETA on the lips

BMW86 · 02-09-2010, 06:09 PM

I think the diffusers and caps are ready to go. I have a feeling lips are still a while away, iCarbon have avoided giving us any concrete dates because when they do, they never meet them.

Same here, although I do prefer the way the iCarbon piece looks.

We need an ETA. These are car parts. We are not asking them to make time travel machines. We have paid and given them months. It's either time to give us the lips or just admit they cant produce.

Chris@iCARBON · 02-09-2010, 07:47 PM

Hey everyone.

We are trying everything in our nature to get everything done for everyone, rest assured. Anything and everything in our power is being done to fulfill your orders. Until everyone is happy and orders are completed, we will not sleep.

We are finalizing new molds so that we can turn these out twice as fast, hopefully that will be in effect shortly.

Fed Ex has been picking stuff up since yesterday, but for anyone who’s tracking number hasn’t moved, it could be a number of things. Fed Ex did not get your package on the truck, it could have not made the shipping cut-off for that day, the driver could have come past the deadline, etc. Make sure to give it a day or two and you should see movement. If you don’t, just email us with your order number and we’ll call our Fed Ex rep and see what’s going on.

Thanks guys.

Also, for any matters regarding your order, please email us directly instead of posting up on the thread – we simply cannot keep a track of everyone who posts up.

Sigh almost 5 months already

How fast is twice as fast as never?

Sorry for your pain guys.

Chris,

Pleese check your e-mail.

ulrichd · 02-09-2010, 09:09 PM

Wait, what? New molds? Is this for future orders or are the revised lips still in the mold stage?

That's what I was thinking... What a subtle way to say... "We're a long way away".

Bullitt · 02-09-2010, 09:36 PM

Sounds to me these new molds are only additional ones to multiply the production output and subsequently speed up the entire process.

That is exactly what we meant. More Molds = Pumping more units out in less time.
