[StricNyne]

[lilskyline240]

ive heard this from ALOT of ppl now. that it takes REDICULOUSLY long to get the mounts. No idea why tho

[darkstar575]

Good thing I found an r32 x-member...I was close to buying from them...

[StricNyne]

i do not like to air dirty laundry but i also dont like getting ****ed over either...

[tintdude69]

i drove 4 hours to get a motor from him and he had the mounts there. this was over a year ago though. there real nice people there and ive never had any problems so im really not sure whats up with them now. whoever fabs them must be dragging there *** on them

[DriftVaginator]

hey mang. im friends with the owner, and yes hes been going through some sheit has of lately. Though he is a good dude and i can assure you will get your mounts. They are excellent mounts and all i can say is good things come to those who wait. Hopefully youll get them in a timely manner.

[StricNyne]

i am pissed cuz i coulda got the mckinney and had these mounts in 5 days instead i went with him and i am ****ed, i missed nopi cuz of this ****, and i am gunna miss the next englishtown event cuz of this, and like i said he says they r gunna be shipped and i dont hear from him anymore, iam stuck i cant do ANYTHING until i get these mounts, and i still got wait cuz of this... like i said i want my mounts this week or my money back if he knows he cant do it within this week send me my money now, i swear to god i am sooo ****ing fed up with this ****ing motor....

[Coolwhip]

damn bro, I hear ya. My motor is waiting to go to the machine shop but got ****ed over by GTR shop on my collar so no foward moving for me.

I say make the trip.

[StricNyne]

man its just my motor has been down for like 3 years, and i am so close and i got ****ed over soooooo many times man.... sigh i swear this is a money pot...some times i just wanna sell this ****...

[d356bud]

ya I got sick of waiting and had him geive me a refund. I ordered mine from tophat and got them in 2 days.

[jrd450r]

I got my mounts and driveshaft from them. Both took a little bit longer than he initially stated but I was able to get them both. By the way I went to the shop to buy the stuff so it wasnt over the internet. Their not out to d!ck people over I just dont think he has any help as everytime I went there it was just the one guy and a **** load of cars being worked on. He helped me out alot to, most places just give you the stuff and leave you there, he explained everything to me to make sure the swap went smooth as butter. Also his prices are better than anywhere else. McKinny is like 3 times the price.

[Coolwhip]

I feel ya man. Its been over 2 years for mine. And every corner i have been screwed some how. Don't sell it. We must survive. $30 in gas will solve the problem.

[Coolwhip]

as in driving a car, not arson. lol

[StricNyne]

ROFLOL, at this point i feel like being cheap put me in this spot, i feel as though i shoulda spent the xtra money and i would of had my motor in my car and running for at least one month now... i have been flexible with them for a while, but when this guy wont respond to me thats when i have a problem...

[s14_sport]

I can assure you LowLifeKustomz is legit. He has my black kouki in my sig below right now. I have been to the shop and I have seen the mounts in person. They look great! If I knew about them before I purchased my syko mounts I most likely would have gotten their mounts. They are nice people and don't d!ck you around.....but, sometimes other people d!ck them around. Which is the case with the delay in the mounts. Guaranteed you'll get your mounts. Don't let the actions of someone else out of their control cause you to give them a bad name.

[themadscientist]

I am not giving my money to any "company" that would call itself "LowLifeKustomz". Jeez man, it just inspires confidence.

[tintdude69]

not trying to start a war but.....why should a name matter? isnt it suppose to be all about reputation. i mean theres SLOWboy racing right up the road from me so why would you want to take a car there to be made fast because of there name? these people are making a cheap quality mount for people who cant and or dont want to shell out the money for a "NAME" brand mount. i mean coolwhip got shafted by the GTR shop but nobody can rip on them because they have a good name. they do good work and sell some of the best engines and parts. things happen to people and they get behind on stuff and im sure i would be upset too

Because a name is the first thing a person sees. Let's assume for a moment that they are 100% good to go. They will never know how much business they lost because people who are looking see the name, get a bad vibe and don't look any further.If you had a nickname would you start using it in a business setting? I don't sign my financial reports THEMADSCIENTIST. Think of cultivating more customers as an interview process, you have to get their attention and then continue to further their interest. The way you treat customers who give you the benefit of the doubt will net you word of mouth which is of course good but you risk losing cold new customers who may not get the impression that a company who claims to be "lowlife" and unable or unwilling to spell correctly is at all professional. Perception is important and a name like that sounds like two guys in their parents garage with a welder who need to pull up their pants. Are they? I assume not but one could not be blamed for expecting it.The real world is like that, take your peircings out before the interview.

[IronMonkey]

I dont care how legit a business is to other customer, but if they SCREW over just one customer, then they are not legit at all. I say drive out there and get your mounts!

good point, it sounds like the first impressions do stick... If I had a missing tooth, which I do, People look at me differently then when I wear my fake tooth. Its just reality

[darkstar575]

When I called the guy he was nice and straight forward. He told me the mounts where on back order because the company that makes the mounts where waiting for products or something. I'm sure if he had the mounts he'd give them 2 ya.

[themadscientist]

Too many links in that chain, talk about middlemen.

[Coolwhip]

For those that said that, "this or that company has rep, blah blah blah". Rep gets the customer to look at your company. Customer service does sell (so does price, lol). So those who say, hey that 1 bad transaction out of the 20 mounts they sell a month isn't bad. Well, 5% or 50% is still bad business.

As far as GTR shop shafting me. I don't care if it was JUN auto that sold me parts. They received my money, and gave me the run around for 3 months and lied to me saying it was shipped but never showed me any evidence of carrier, tracking, etc. By the 4th month they don't even respond to email.

That 5% is enough for me to say, "your company sucks"

Anyways, Good luck on this, if they respect the customer, they should allow you to receive a refund if they can not hold their end of the deal, hence get the parts you need within the time you were told.

[lilskyline240]

its his fault if his supplier doesnt have a part. he shouldnt accept an order for something he doesnt have

[Coolwhip]

amen.

When the order is place. They should say.."hey here are your options" since of course you don't want to loose business or a sale that already has happen. So thats customer service right there. "you can either wait" or you can request and get a "refund".

He ordered, we waited, now he wants a refund. I think that sounds correct.

[d356bud]

exactly, I got a refund from them because I got sick of waiting, I was told one more week, week after week. Thats bad business, promising something you can't follow through with.

[themadscientist]

OP, I have an R32 member if it will help you out.
