Sorry it's taken so long but please don't lose the faith just days before you have your sideskirts. I have spoke with the company, not Dan, that these are here, they are in a container and they will be ready by Friday. Yes, it is Dan Root who is the test fitter. I think I speak on behalf of everyone when I say that no one knew it was him, modorators included as the moment it was found out, he was banned. Now I don't know the specifics on why he was banned but I do know that hell or high water, we will make sure everyone gets their sideskirts. We are so close people, don't give up now. This is possibly one of the biggest aftermarket undertakings for this car when it comes to a non-performance related part for this car. I wish I could wave a magic wand and have them on everyone's cars already but I can't so we have to just all be patient. I would hate for those that paid on the group buy to get this far only to ask for a refund days before they ship only to go back to the end of the line and have to wait for more to come in because they see how awesome they make the car look and now want a set. As far as pictures go, I'd post a picture of a shipping container but I won't because I'm so serious about how close we are and I think some would find it offensive. We're waiting for pictures just like anyone else. If you have any questions and want to talk to me personally, you can call me at 952-681-1000 9am until midnight central time. Thank you.

Rudy and Jonny, I have total confidence in you. You may know I have not contributed to any negative comments regarding this project. I know first hand that we are tough customers and not always the most patient customers. Sometime taking a lead in a project here is a thankless job. Having said that, I applaud all who take a lead in a project, and I thank you. I trust you will come through. But, knowing that Dan has a hand in this makes me nervous. He's not the most ethical person. The only reason I didn't give up is because I know JRI is stand-up group.
Thanks for staying in touch with the progress. Team, lets be patient. Jonny and Rudy have a great deal of integrity. I'm sure no one will get ripped off, even if they do. I'm confident they will refund your money from their own pocket if necessary. They will see this deal through, I know. I just think the initial plan was too aggressive. I look forward to having mine soon.

It took a while to get my JRI triple pillar also. But as anyone who has one will attest, they are the highest quality and fit and look like factory parts. I expect that these will be the same.
I have a bigger concern about getting them painted locally and looking as good as the painted stuff I have from JRI.
Jon and Rudy, dont let us impatient folks put you off your great projects. 'If you make it, we will buy it"

The white Crossfire looks really sweet - Those rims really have some fat lips - Nice choice!!
An SRT6 front bumper would really set the car off and perhaps a light tint on the windshield.

Can't tint the front windshield in my State. I lost a bit of money with my 401K. Put a damper on my buying.

Here are pictures of them from the manufacturer. We're getting a car there tomorrow for final fitment and then they're out the door and off to you. Thanks for everyone's patience with this.
Enjoy
