As some of you may remember, I believe it was VegasJay who told me about a co. in South Hackensack NJ called JMS Products, Inc. and they made body parts for Mustangs. During the very beginning, they were looking for a car to use for measurements on some parts. This was back in December04/January05. I had enbarked on the hour and 30 min drive to this place because I was interested in parts and they said that any of the parts they made from the measurements, they would send to me free of charge! I said that sounds pretty cool.
Took the trip, met the guy there "Jay", seemed like a cool guy. After 7 hours of being there, he took various measurements on the vehicle and I was on my way back down south jersey. He then called me and thanked me for allowing to borrow the vehicle for measurements and he would be in touch as to when the parts would be made, he said a good 4-5 Months. I said thats no problem! 5 Months later I gave him a buzz to see how things were and he said he's a little behind because they were in the middle of making a "sleeper" turbo-charged system for the 99-04 Mustangs. So he took my information down again and told me he would call me when they are done. It was then August, still had not heard from Jay. I have an account on myspace.com and I happen to come across one of his work buddies who had an account on myspace trying to advertise JMS Products. I shot him a message saying "hey pass this message on to Jay because I'm still waiting on parts he promised me." So I left my info on the message and I got a email from Jay 2 days later. Saying they have made the parts but unfortionately he lost my information again and wasnt able to get a hold of me. Well, to the conclusion, he only made 2 Parts for the 05-06 Mustang! Hood Scoop and a Grille! He then appologized for the inconvenience and losing my information again and said I had my choice of parts! Choice?? I thought I was getting all the parts for free? He said nothing in response to that. So he said, you can have the Hood Scoop which comes unpainted or the Grilled which is honeycomb with the JMS logo in the middle of it. I said just send me the hood scoop, being upset that only 2 parts were made by this guy, I was somewhat dissapointed. Febuary 23, 2 days before my cruise, the scoop arrives. No instrucions, no nothing, comes with a hood scoop and a windshield banner that says JMS Products, Inc., yea right like I'm going to advertise them on my car! So I threw the banner away. And this is the finish product, a screw on hood scoop.
What you guys think? keep it? Throw it away?
I don't know, I'm not fond of screwing it into the hood. But here are the pics of the scoop.

Leave that thing off your car, your car looks awesome as it is, clean with stripes.
So after all this time you got an unfinished hoodscoop [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/banghead.gif[/img]
Maybe you can sell it on ebay at a discounted price? [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif[/img]

I think you need to dump that nancyfied electric blower hanging on the wall and get a gas one. Much more manly.

That scoop looks like $hit, your car looks great without it, to really prove your point you should just send it back, asking why it took 5-6 months to produce such a inadequate product.

looks like a really sloppy job, I'll be that there is a lot of prepwork involved, otherwise it will be wavy.
It wouldn't be worth the negative feedback on ebay. Put it back in the box and return to sender.

How forgetable! Nothing original at all. Looks like something from JC Whitney. Send it back. At least he can't be making much money off of your time and inconvenience. And who would want someone else's initials on their grille? Oh yeah, that'll sell like hotcakes! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

I had an 04 GT before I bought my '06 and I bought a set of their shelby scoops and my body guy said the prep was the worst thing he had ever done and they looked just like you're hood scoop when I got them. I say leave it off. Don't drill into your hood.

Well I must apologize Paul...I contacted Jay about making part's a year ago or more and remember setting that up... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/banghead.gif[/img] The funny thing is there was a post on here a long time ago with some pic's of a bunch of JMS's "05 Stuff" and it was all terrible. I can't find the thread but I'll keep looking. I remember a lot of terrible "Boss" looking parts (that scoop looks familiar) and a spoiler that could have been a bar...So I guess they are liars too. Jay also promised me one of each part as well for "setting" the deal up. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif[/img] He can keep that dog poo scoop or I can tell him what he can do with it...Either way... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/04.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsdown.gif[/img] I guess that's what happens sometimes when you work with someone 2,000 miles away. Again Paul, I'm sorry that it turned out to be a waste of your time.
A grill with their logo in the middle??? You have got to be kidding me... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rollinglaugh.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/puke.gif[/img]
