FedEx Ground will not update until it gets to the next hub. So once it leaves Orlando (our closest hub) it normally falls off the radar for a couple days, then shows up again in your closest major city / hub. It will then get updated a few times until it shows out for delivery.

They won! Now what makes a Florida guy a Tribe fan? Only people from Ohio like Cleveland sports. Go Browns! :hidesfaceinshame:

I don't have time to watch the regular season, but once the playoffs start, if the Indians, Browns, or Dolphins are in it, I tend to get interested pretty quick.

Of course, normally as quick as I am interested they are eliminated, but this year might be the year!!

GO TRIBE!!

(And yeah, I'm originally from the mistake by the lake...) !

Good Choice! Marcello, THANK YOU for the outstanding product w/ the pre-paints!*** I know it's a hassle to demand this level of quality, but man does it increase customer satisfaction.

Guys, learn from my mistakes.

1) Order Prepaints
2) Be Patient - give the guy time to get you a good set
3) Be Patient removing your glass (I actually didn't screw this up, but I had plenty of time since mine's not a DD)
4) Scuff and use an adhesion promotor on the louvers - (and not one for adhering paints to plastic)
5) Be Patient w/ the install.

Keep you windows rolled down when installing, don't close your doors with the windows up, and give them plenty of time to cure.


***I don't know who the new painter is, but mine were flawless. Thanks!

Here's my second set curing today...

LOL, thanks guys!!

Same painter, he's just "on his game" now, and we're also doing a good job of cleanup / final inspection on this end as well. While delivery time for painted is still taking about that long (5 weeks) after the fall show season we should be able to bring that back down to around 3 weeks. But with SEMA, PRI, and other local shows right around the corner, we just know there will be delays in getting everything done for a good set.

Speaking of which, ProCharger, Stillen, a large Shelby dealer, and maybe one or two other cars will be sporting our stuff at SEMA this year, and next year we plan to have our #05 car there as well!

Wow, very nice pictures! (hint hint everyone else - this is how to take a picture that will make it into our ads!) Now all we need to do is send you a Tribe decal for the back window

Seriously, I'm glad you like them, it's good to see that all the work that goes into them is appreciated by so many enthusiasts.

Ok, back to the game - 7-3 Cleveland in the top of the 7th !!

If you look close at this one you will see the Rockies decal. I would love to see a Cleveland and Rockies World Series. Marcello if you need another MG pic let me know and I will send you the pic or you could just take from here I guess.

Well the overhead shot of the Vista louver was so unique that it just "worked" in the ad - I really liked the effect it gave to the image. So thanks go to you for taking it!

As to the Rockies / Indians - it's looking that way, after that inning last night where Boston just fell apart I think Cleveland can really close the deal here tomorrow night...

Yep. Unique & worked. That sun-diamond refelection brings your eye's right too it. The Redfire shot is nice too

Now, about your "Tribe". Talking from a Red Sox Nation Lifetime Member point of view. Looks like your right. Old school baseball is gone. It is the day of the young guns and small ball baseball. We have always relyed upon the big guns. You folks have every member participating. And yeah, that 3 run homer (again) was tough to swallow, but it was your tenacity and speed that has won the games for you and will carry you on the the big showdown.

Just picked up my copy of Mustang Enthusiast today. Very cool to see my car in print. I noticed in there you had the climate control *****, but I don't see them on your site. Are they ready for sale yet? Just like your gas door, I didn't want one until I saw the pic. Now I'm sold on yet another wonderful SHR product.
