I know there is a way to compress stuff with winrar but it still says file size is 58.2 mb even when I make it a zip or rar file??
Looks like your pictures are the problem, should be .jpeg's not bitmaps or similar unless you rewrote "War and Peace' in all the known languages.

PS. As a soap opera this sucks, it has no sex, even though quite a few got screwed real good.

I converted it to a 2MB pdf and emailed it back to Johnny, he should be able to email it to anyone from here on out.

Completely off subject, but when I was a kid my brother was sent to walk me home so I would get there safely. He and a friend did this to me, I broke my arm, spent many weeks in a cast over it. Should have walked home by myself-jerks.

OK back to the subject at hand.......................................

Dave will let you know how they look by the end of the weekend.

Just ordered $300 in brackets to be made up by friday maybe even tomorrow. We have all the shipping supplys from uline necessary to ship 10 sets as soon as we recieve the brackets. These sets do not require the needed modifications, and will be full insured. Pictures will be taken to document that they are perfect when they leave the shop.

Dan has informed us that he has 10-15 sets on reserve to replace broken sets. These sets will be opened tomorrow to determine which can ship and which can not. In the case they can be shipped they will be shipped asap insured from Cali. with our brackets to follow.

Someone is coming out to see if it was duraflexes falut that these are broken or the shipping company themselves. Once there assestment is done the good sets will go out the door.

Regradless all the sets should and will be covered so the fixing we were going to do may not be required.

Hold tight for more information tomorrow. Sorry for the spelling errors and Iphone post

I am not in the group buy, but would be interested in a copy of the instructions you guys are talking about.

Can someone email them to me if allowed!

James1549(at)current.net.

Thanks.

Sorry they are only for group buy members at this time. Not trying to be sour, but you are holding on to a good set that should be headed towards a member who funded this endvor, or had been sent to us for a replacement.

There is just something wrong about someone able to install these before the people who paid to have these made get to install them.

It blows me away people are still buying these from Dan after all said and done 21k views later.

I'm 100% sure that James1549 does not and has not gotten a set of these from anyone.
I know James personally and he has made no mention of this.

Valk, with all due respect, I suspect Jonny misspoke. Never the less, the document needs to stay within those that were in the group buy.

That is correct I did assume I apologize James. Valk I accidentally sent you a set in my contacts, the brackets cost us just a little under $300. The reason they were so cheap is we ordered 60 30 L and 30 R. They will not be that cheap buying say 20 sets. I would have no problem selling brackets and instructions to help offset the costs for those who do buy from Dan once every GB member is satisfied.

Just so everyone knows we opted out against making all of the brackets for fear of them being nonuniform, and rusting over time. The new bracket is adjustable as well as made out of a coated metal that will not rust. I would post the CAD drawings lol but I have a feeling someone I know would be selling a very similar bracket.

Guys, no problem about the document, I understand. I am anxious to see them on some Crossfires at Woodward before I make a decision. And if I do decide, I will try to get them here first before anywhere else. I think Gary can back me on this, and thanks for taking up for me.

Good luck guys, I hope this really works out for everyone involved. My problem is if I get a pair of side skirts, then an SRT6 front bumper WILL be required! More cash...

Johnny, I want to make sure the skirts I get already have the bracket and the proper attachments already on it Including any fixes you deem necessary. Basically I want to take them to paint once they are here. Not being a jerk, just its what I was expecting when I placed this order and I don't want any confusion. Thanks again for all your efforts!!!

Like I said in the instructions the skirts are as close as they can be for paint, there will me some minor and I mean minor sanding in the door well depending on how **** you want to get. Some trimming in the door crease just for proper alignment where the bottom back half of the door meets its about 1/16th (i would do it myself but every skirt will be different), and there may also be a pin hole or two most of which a painter will probably cover with a thicker primer.

Last but not least I want there to be no misconception about this bracket. NOTHING IS ATTACHING TO THE SKIRT WHAT SO EVER. The skirt attaches to the bracket, there was some confusion early on.
