All will be anodize purple.

Even if you have straight bars, they are not "tension and bracing" like these do. The OEM's were to cut down vibration.

These actually reduce subframe sway and flex, reducing wheel hop.

Well, just looked at the site and saw this:

"Attending family emergency, will be back mid jan, to ship all items. Our appologies."

So I guess everyone including myself will be getting them sometime soon. Now to wait patiently and look at the sweet purple color when they come in. I apologize for sounding like an a** and being impatient in my last post. Best regards, Chris.

I'm pretty sure john has sold other parts personally than the stuff from RPSport.

Hey!

Sorry I had to leave, drama, and not your guys problem.

I have to go pick up from the anodizer tomorrow, and get the laser done, and then will be shipping.

Hoping to be all caught up before the end of the month on braces.

VSHT's? Thats a different story.

Thank you all for your patience.

John

I'm sorry but this is a perfect example of poor business execution. Yes things do happen, but you should be able to remotely be on top of the situation. Having a step-by-step update on how the product is doing over this long of a period is ridiculous. Every time I read this thread now I feel more sorry for the people buying these products. Was looking forward to the S14 version, but now I retract my statement.
