I think this whole thing has gotten totally out of hand. Group buys are risks for the consumer and the supplier. Sometimes things don't happen. Deal with it.  For once, we actually have someone that was willing to make a nice body kit for a car that doesn't get much aftermarket support. Its okay that some of you are mad, but bringing it to the CEG is not where you should voice your opinion. Call the shop and voice it with them. I don't personally know anyone involved with the kit, but to them I say thanks for at least trying to do something to contribute to the lousy aftermarket support we recieve for our cars. I would rather wait another year to get a body kit than put those crappy kits that they offer right now on my car. I would rather drive bumperless! So, if anyone involved in the body kit reads this, I hope you will still have the blueprints to create these kits. I still would like one. And furthermore, if you still have any left over after this blows past, set one aside for me, because thats the tightest and only kit that I have ever seen and one of the only ones I would stick on my SE.

I agree with maverick. I wasn't involved with this group buy but I was really excited about buying one of these kits after it was done. I hope that Kaotic will still make them so that I can buy one.

At this point i think he just wants to send out the kits he's promised and wash his hands of CEG... cant say i'd blame him either.
Oh sure...mention a link and don't post it 
But I agree with them to a decent extent. They focused a lot of time and effort toward this kit only for people to spit in their face. So no cool.

Well I'm glad Kaotic looks at people like citation as the spokesperson for us all. If him or Nirish had taken one second to look around and see that I, and others, have been defending them throughout this entier ordeal, AND supporting them, maybe they might think again about such an end.

I agree with you too matt. Especially after talking and dealing with nirish. I don't think many people on here understand the volume of PMs and emails he had to deal with, and most of them being questions that have been asked before. We all agree this has taken longer than it should have, but it's coming together and complaining about it doesn't really help.

I agree, we have a few too many people not involved, worried about something they have nothing to lose on. I have talked with Nirish, those that have paid in full and are listed on the website are receiving their kits and that three have been completed. Those that have not paid in full need to contact KI about paying in full for their kit. Those of you wanting the Pre 98 kits, Nirish will resume that topic only after all the 98+ have been shipped and received. So if you are reading this thread because you want a pre-98, PLEASE be patient. Those that are here stiring the pot just to do so.......

Does anyone have any contact info for Nirish?
He was supposed to get back to me 2 weeks ago with a shipping quote, has not done so and he has turned his PMs off.

I guess I'm in line behind the pre 98 ers for a front piece if they do make them.

Wash away wash away. The post was especially cool since you already have a kit and such.
