View Full Version : (CLOSED) CF Dash Pod Cover hamsta 06-01-2005, 03:27 PM is it too late to add me to the raffle list? ranger4277 06-02-2005, 09:17 AM Carlos, what is the status of the last four pods? Wednesday has come and gone. devious12 06-02-2005, 07:06 PM So who won the raffle? Wasn't it today, or am I mistaken? ranger4277 06-03-2005, 03:32 PM Forget the raffle, how about pods to paying individuals? What's going on Carlos? adrian-1 06-03-2005, 04:03 PM Forget the raffle, how about pods to paying individuals? What's going on Carlos? 3) adrian-1 (Paid PayPal 11.4.2004) (Ship Friday) 5) ranger4277 (Paid PayPal 11.7.2004) (Ship Friday) 8) Riccio (Paid PayPal 11.11.2004) (Ship Friday) 11) yanksfan_67 (Paid PayPal 2.25.2005) (Ship Friday) He did say he'd ship ours out on "Friday", doeasn't say which Friday though. :rolleyes: Come to think of it... tommorrow (6/4) will be 7 months since I sent my paypal for it. moRotorMotor 06-03-2005, 04:30 PM Well he sent mine on May 26, so I have waited 8 days already. Since there is a change of hands, (from US Postal Service to Canada Post) Carlos could not provide a tracking number. I don't know what to make of it. devious12 06-03-2005, 05:16 PM Carlos, please respond to the members above who haven't received their pods yet. You've come this far and almost everyone has received one, let's make sure that this group buy is completed. XDEEDUBBX 06-03-2005, 05:47 PM im lost....

So have they gone out today? cortc 06-06-2005, 11:29 AM You recieved your POD and so will everyone else, I would appreciate it if you would now quit with the BS self proclamed deadlines and such...

Thank you, Brian cortc 06-06-2005, 11:34 AM Raffle will be held this week, I had to go out of town on business (It was not scheduled) and when I got back Friday the CEO was unceremoniously let go; so there was not much time to take care of such things... raffle? CGRX8 06-06-2005, 11:36 AM thanks, i'm looking forward to it! any idea which day? cortc 06-06-2005, 11:38 AM This is what you can make of it... I shipped it last week as I said with the others and it looks like mail from here to Canada takes a bit more time... (Everyone paid for US Postal Service not FedEx overnight...) Well he sent mine on May 26, so I have waited 8 days already. Since there is a change of hands, (from US Postal Service to Canada Post) Carlos could not provide a tracking number. I don't know what to make of it. cortc 06-06-2005, 11:44 AM Most probably will do it tonight or tomorrow, then I will anounce the winner... Will ship it out within a week as I have to get some shots of it on the car... There will be a few conditions for the winner such as you can't sell it you can only give it away to another forum member and such and you have to actually put it on your car and enjoy it...:) thanks, i'm looking forward to it! any idea which day? otrovago 06-06-2005, 02:12 PM Raffle? cortc 06-06-2005, 02:32 PM Ok, They have all shipped and everyone should have a PM with your US Postal Service confirmation number...:) cortc 06-06-2005, 02:34 PM Yes, I will be raffling off a silver Dash POD Cover... http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=62607 Raffle? cortc 06-06-2005, 02:35 PM If you want to make your POD shine even more than you can buff it out with some 3M rubbing compound and polish then give it a nice coat of wax... devious12 06-06-2005, 04:57 PM You recieved your POD and so will everyone else, I would appreciate it if you would now quit with the BS self proclamed deadlines and such... Wow Cortc I really think you should back your words up as I was asking nicely and needed to know because your case with the police was never closed as we all know this. So until I have confirmation that everyone has received the pods and then send those confirmations to the detective Ronosso whom you are familiar with, then the case will be closed. So don't tell me about my so called "BS" and "self proclaimed deadlines" they aren't mine they are detective Ronosso's, so you can tell him that if you like. I'm not trying to start trouble, I'm trying to get your case closed and I need everyone not just a few of you to please respond to my P/M's so the case can be closed. Thank you, Brian Nemesis8 06-06-2005, 05:32 PM I responded as soon as you sent me the PM. Maybe you should start a list to see who has not responded yet - just a thought. devious12 06-06-2005, 06:41 PM I responded as soon as you sent me the PM. Maybe you should start a list to see who has not responded yet - just a thought. Your right Nemesis8 good idea: 1) Nemesis8 received confirmation 2) jdoldstein2000 received confirmation 3) Sendo received confirmation 5) rot8ryx need confirmation 6) Hisakata need confirmation 7) ranger4277 need confirmation 8) Colin204 need confirmation 9) xSxxKxxYx need confirmation 10) moRotorMotor need confirmation 11) Riccio need confirmation I understand that some of you have just received your tracking so anyone else who is on this list and has "need confirmation" next to their name, and has their pod please p/m me with confirmation. I would like to close this case as I do not have the time to keep up on it after everyone has received their item. Thank you, Brian cortc 06-06-2005, 08:40 PM You need to get a life, there is no case as there was only your BS flying around here... You got your POD so as far as everything is concerned you are out of it... This is a closed matter and at this point has nothing to do with you, so once again MYOFB... I have spoken to all concerned and at this point it is a closed matter... Wow Cortc I really think you should back your words up as I was asking nicely and needed to know because your case with the police was never closed as we all know this. So until I have confirmation that everyone has received the pods and then send those confirmations to the detective Ronosso whom you are familiar with, then the case will be closed.

Thank you, Brian cortc 06-06-2005, 08:59 PM Once again posting incorrect information... This is a correct list of the individuals that paid, have been shipped a POD and were sent a confirmation via PM... 1) devious12 (Paid PayPal 11.10.2004) (Shipped US Postal 5.26.2005) 2) nemesis8 (Paid PayPal 11.3.2004) (Shipped US Postal 5.25.2005) 3) adrian-1 (Paid PayPal 11.4.2004) (Shipped US Postal 6.6.2005) 4) rot8ryx Paid PayPal 11.15.2004) (Shipped US Postal 5.25.2005) 5) ranger4277 (Paid PayPal 11.7.2004) (Shipped US Postal 6.6.2005) 6) Sendo (Paid PayPal 11.11.2004) (Shipped US Postal 5.25.2005) 7) jgoldstein2000 (Paid PayPal 11.15.2004) (Shipped US Postal 5.25.2005) 8) Riccio (Paid PayPal 11.11.2004) (Shipped US Postal 6.6.2005) 9) moRotorMotor (Paid PayPal 12.4.2004) (Shipped US Postal 5.26.2005) 10) Ryan28A (Paid PayPal 1.6.2005) (Shipped US Postal 5.25.2005) 11) yanksfan_67 (Paid PayPal 2.25.2005) (Shipped US Postal 6.6.2005) 12) GrRx8MaZdan (Paid PayPal 2.25.2005) (Shipped US Postal 5.25.2005) 13) monzter (Paid PayPal) (Shipped US Postal 6.6.2005) These two never paid and when asked said they did not have the money... (Not part of the GB) 6) Hisakata need confirmation 9) xSxxKxxYx need confirmation Now once again stop posting what you do not know is factual... The poor guy who's information you wrongly posted is still on this thread... Your right Nemesis8 good idea: 1) Nemesis8 received confirmation 2) jdoldstein2000 received confirmation 3) Sendo received confirmation 5) rot8ryx need confirmation 6) Hisakata need confirmation 7) ranger4277 need confirmation 8) Colin204 need confirmation 9) xSxxKxxYx need confirmation 10) moRotorMotor need confirmation 11) Riccio need confirmation I understand that some of you have just received your tracking so anyone else who is on this list and has "need confirmation" next to their name, and has their pod please p/m me with confirmation. I would like to close this case as I do not have the time to keep up on it after everyone has received their item. Thank you, Brian Outlaws eXtreme 06-06-2005, 09:39 PM Cortc, why do you come up with so many excuses? Do you tell these excuses to your parents too? Grow up please. Deal with people professionally... or at the very least, a bit more mature. Devious was merely trying to straighten the mess out. The Mess that you've made. *Ya ya, here comes the... "Hey mind your own business, blah blah blah, so that I can waste more people's time" posts.* Ryan28A 06-06-2005, 09:46 PM If I were Carlos, I'd be a bit more empathetic to others that have waited for months and months without any communication. Stop pointing fingers and take the blame for this long GB. cortc 06-06-2005, 09:52 PM Not worthy of much response, but if you do have a few moments why don't you remove the incorrect information you posted, I am sure the innocent will appreciate it... The only mess here is that caused by others who have never contributed to anything... Cortc, why do you come up with so many excuses? Do you tell these excuses to your parents too? Grow up please.

The only mess here is that caused by others who have never contributed to anything... Contributed to nothing? I would rather not contribute anything than to waste other people's time like you have. FACT : It took you about 3 months to finally come back. FACT: You became irrate at the ones that wanted some sort of explaination for your ineptitude. FACT: You went back later on, and changed your post reflecting your more "carebear" image... notice the 5/25 change. Your original words were a bit more harsh to the ones that questioned your motives. FACT: You are doing it again Cortc. Why do you berate the ones that are trying to help you. You're obviously not doing your job, or even trying to remotely be patient with the people that have been VERY patient with you in the last half of the year. FACT: You're still fooling yourself if you think your "free raffle" deal won the hearts of the members here. cortc 06-06-2005, 10:02 PM You are not and I offer none, I have explained my position on the matter and would change nothing... Everyone can take it or leave it... There is one thing for sure, many have asked for me to produce more PODS and my response has been no, I am sorry but you can thank the trouble makers for that... In the end, the selfish self serving actions of a few have impacted many others and taken away from the creative spirit that fueled this project to begin with... This will be my last post on this thread nor will I return to read any further, I will post the results of the winner of the raffle on a new thread... All of the PODS have been shipped, Enjoy... This thread is closed... If I were Carlos, I'd be a bit more empathetic to others that have waited for months and months without any communication. Stop pointing fingers and take the blame for this long GB. Outlaws eXtreme 06-06-2005, 10:03 PM If I were Carlos, I'd be a bit more empathetic to others that have waited for months and months without any communication. Stop pointing fingers and take the blame for this long GB. I highly doubt he'll get his ego out of his butt to realize that people were being patient with him... nor will he ever fully give a genuine apology to all the crap he's done. Free raffle... sure buddy. cortc 06-06-2005, 10:08 PM Read my last post, I have not changed any of my post; just added to them... You seem to have issues that require help I cannot offer you, I hope you can get them resolved... Most of your facts are fabricated... I could give a rats ass what you think, and as I stated before it is easy for those who have never done anything but blow hot air to see nothing but sour grapes... This time I will say it, MYOFB... Contributed to nothing? I would rather not contribute anything than to waste other people's time like you have. FACT : It took you about 3 months to finally come back.

This thread is closed... Carlos, Selfish Self Serving actions? How are my words selfish and self-serving? How do I benefit from posting about your negative attitutde with the people that have trusted you? You really think that many people want your PODS? That you're the ONLY one in the universe to get these? People can make up their own opinions of you Cortc. They do not need my words... they can simply read your's. See, the differences between you and the rest of the members on this board are... 1) We love the rotary community, we help each other, support each other. Are we to just sit here and read that you've wasted people's time (3+ months) with no excuse, then try to turn it around and make yourself the good guy in this? How are you helping the community by wasting everyone's time? 2) We do not think other members are so stupid they can't read the forums and notice that someone called "Cortc" is wasting people's time. Why do you continue and think other members of the message board are so dumb that they can't think for themselves? Outlaws eXtreme 06-06-2005, 10:32 PM Read my last post, I have not changed any of my post; just added to them... You seem to have issues that require help I cannot offer you, I hope you can get them resolved... Most of your facts are fabricated... I could give a rats ass what you think, and as I stated before it is easy for those who have never done anything but blow hot air to see nothing but sour grapes... This time I will say it, MYOFB... Have you really been reading this thread? Are we reading the same thing? Never have I ever said anything that was "fabricated." Merely summarizing the detailed points that you've done. If you want to clarify it... be my guest. If you think I'm BSing the members of the board by implying things about you that isn't true, then correct me. Please Cortc, Correct anything that I've said that was "fabricated." 1) You took a 2-3 month hiatus after you claimed that you were planning to ship out the pods.. (Date 3/31). Then later you posted some more pix of the supposed 12 pods that were going to be shipped out... then you disappeared. TRUE OR FALSE? 2) You return (Date 5/25) and say that you were waiting on the rest of the Pods to be ready to be shipped... uhmm what happened to the first 12 pods that were supposed to be shipped PRE 3/31? Why did people have to wait? Best of the batch right? Reference (POST #370) 3) POST #404. You said you didn't know of any deadlines? Was that your excuse for not shipping the items stated originally on 3/31? So this was your excuse here why they weren't shipped out? (Note: There were no deadlines like you said. But the thing is... you said "Hey guys I'm shipping it out this friday, it will get to you next week friday." When it doesn't happen.. you bitch at the people and say that "There was no deadline." That is the problem here cortc. Why even mention that you plan to ship anything out?) 4) Raffle was suppose to happen on June 2nd for those that entered their names. I noticed that you said some circumstances that prevented that from happening, etc etc... it's June 6 now. How long do you really think it takes to pick a name randomly out of a "pod" and find the winner? 10 minutes? An Hour? Heck, let's say you're a really busy guy... 48 hours? Let's just assume that you were extremely busy saving the world and it's taken up your time for the last few days. So my question is, when do you really plan to fulfill the near false hopes of this raffle? Heck, I just finished doing 4 raffles just now typing this thread, cooking dinner, and managing my Quickbook account for today's invoices. Come on now Cortc, you can do it.. I believe in you. Correct any inaccuracies I have Cortc, I'll shut up now. ;) devious12 06-06-2005, 10:50 PM Tell you guys what to shut Carlos up once and for all and for me to completely MMOB, you can all call Detective Ronosso for yourselves (no offense to the other members but I'm really fed up with the lies from Carlos) and tell him that you have received your items. Since Carlos seems to think that the case was closed. Carlos: I was being nice so you didn't have a case open on you anymore once this was resolved, but you are a true ass, really why would you lie about it I should just not even go out of my way to close the case and let it linger, let you deal with the detective, what the is the matter with you, really, I've never meet someone who has acted as you have on this forum! Detective Ronosso: 305.460.5458 That is the detective who has been on this case since day one and it's his direct line. Your so damn smart aren't you Carlos! And we are the trouble makers that made it so no one else will ever get one of these pods? Are you for real? I'm surprise anyone would ever trust you again on this forum. Who are you to talk, you didn't respond only when Detective Ronosso visited your sister in law and then got your cell phone number, where your new job was and tracked you down. You finally called him back the same night and oh just by chance you happen to post the very next day after the detective told you to contact us, telling us that the pods were going out and that we were being too suspicious? Yeah ok buddy, anyways that's the real story now that everything is out in the open. Your a lier and should never be allowed to conduct business on this forum again, you cannot be trusted and I'm not the only one who feels this way. Almost every member who paid for a pod feels the same way. Outlaws eXtreme 06-07-2005, 12:10 AM I'm not sure how Carlos can dig himself out of this one, but I'd like to read more of his side on this... Ok Carlos, since you claim that you lost $450 on this project, (Even though you decided to raffle one of the supposed Silver PODs, makes no sense right?), The two deaths that happened, the 'CEO' that got fired, other random excuses for all the delays, etc etc... if you can provide some sort of paperwork to the rest of the members here about all these delays, I'll write you a check for $450 to cover that loss. How about that? I'm serious Carlos. To make it worth your time, I'll write a check for $1000 for your "time" since it seems your time is so valuable/limited, and when you are done getting all the paperwork ready. Scan those receipts, show us some paperwork. TR1GGERx1 06-07-2005, 12:56 AM wheres my popcorn. go on with the drama movie!. im very suprised no mods jumped in on this and did something about it. they just chilling and watching the entertainment as i am or wut? misterwilson007 06-07-2005, 11:12 AM this thread is the best ever!! Riccio 06-07-2005, 11:32 AM Well, Cortc is no longer accepting private messages, so I am posting here. I have one of the last four Pods to be shipped. I have a tracking number from Carlos and the package was accepted at the Pompano Beach post office yesterday at 1:56 PM. To say I am relieved is an understatement. I am grateful to those who helped push this forward (especially Devious12, and Detectiver Ronosso) - and honestly, to CortC for his work to create, test, and have the Pods manufactured. What was not handled well was when Carlos literally dropped out of sight for 2 months after posting a pic of the 12 pods with the boxes they were to be shipped in, and sending all of us a request to confirm our shipping addresses. That sure made me think that shipment would be as he stated - within the next day or so. I for one had no idea that he still had (extensive?) finish work to do on them. I appreciate that he cared enough to give us all a truly quality product and followed through on the finish work and I am very anxious to finally receive my pod - I hope by the end of the week - in time for a local club meet. I am truly sorry for the personal family losses (illness and deaths) that Carlos had to deal with during this time - and also apparently a big shake-up at work. But I think any reasonable person who had the faith and money of several people pending in a very public forum would have taken at least five or ten minutes once or twice a week to let us know what was going on. So much (!!!) could have been avoided if he simply would have kept in contact. Onward and upward - I hope all the Group Buy members enjoy their pods, and I wish Carlos a happier year for the rest of 2005, without the terrible family/work upheavals of the recent past. Outlaws eXtreme 06-07-2005, 12:07 PM A Trully honest and diligent man wouldn't have just left and run off. If I did nothing wrong, I would simply explain myself. I wouldn't just start attacking the people. If he felt some of the members of the board was saying negative untrue things about him, he could have simply made us look like fools. Instead he continued on making himself look like the victim, and tried to put the blame on the ones that helped push this POD Group buy forward. Makes no sense right? It doesn't take a PHd to figure out that he did finish this Group Buy... but at his own time. Riccio's more polite way of stating what I've been reiterating is above this post... Ya I could have been more cordual about all this, but why beat around the bush, just go straight forward, enough time has been wasted. :) Riccio 06-07-2005, 01:32 PM Hey Outlaw - NOBODY would ever accuse YOU of "beating around the bush!" :D ranger4277 06-07-2005, 02:36 PM How long does it take USPS to get the shipment info their system? My confirmation # still isn't pulling anything up. And Devious, once I have pod in hand you can be sure I'll let you know.. unless you were serious about us needing to contact the Detective personally. Which is it? Outlaws eXtreme 06-07-2005, 02:48 PM Tracking #'s usually take 18-24 hours before it's registered. If it was shipped today, expect it to be in the computers tomorrow morning. ranger4277 06-07-2005, 03:17 PM Oh, I'm fully aware of the time taken to get into the system. That's why I'm wondering, since it was shipped Monday morning. It will be annoying if they don't update until it has already been delivered.... at which point the tracking # is useless. devious12 06-07-2005, 04:24 PM The tracking number is useless, not saying it isn't legit, but USPS doesn't update their site fast enough. Carlos sent my tracking to me and the pod arrive in two days, I have to say it was very quick shipping after it was finally sent. And if everyone would like to just send me the confirmation who hasn't once they receive the pods I will forward the emails to the Dectective. I just wanted everyone to see that I wasn't just making this stuff up. Pretty good imagination if I did though, here's the detective's email below: "Brian, I got your message this morning. Glad you got the part. I was getting a little worried that he would not send anything, but sometimes these things have a way of working out when you apply just the right kind of persuasion. Yes, please compile the list you were explaining, in that way when I prepare the final report I can include the list. You can respond to this email and send it as an attachment when it is ready. Thanks for the follow up." KR Detective K. Reinoso Economic Crimes Unit Coral Gables Police Department. 305-460-5458 Ryan28A 06-08-2005, 01:55 AM I've been on an ambulance for 48 hours and missed quite a bit. It seems everyone is getting/has gotten their pod covers and I'm very glad for this. I think we all need to accept the fact that Carlos isn't going to be rational about this whole situation, raffle or no raffle. Whatever... There are people like that in this world. Good life lesson to be learned........ I guess moRotorMotor 06-10-2005, 07:48 AM It's been 15 days since Carlos told me he shipped my pod and I have yet to see it. I am not happy and I will be giving the detective a call soon. devious12 06-10-2005, 07:50 AM It's been 15 days since Carlos told me he shipped my pod and I have yet to see it. I am not happy and I will be giving the detective a call soon. Did he provide tracking? moRotorMotor 06-10-2005, 07:56 AM Carlos said that due to the fact that the package change hands (from US postal service to Canada Post), he could not provide the tracking number. Outlaws eXtreme 06-10-2005, 10:38 AM Strange... considering we've shipped plenty of things at work to Canada and we've provided tracking #. The USPS is a bit slow on their system, but 15 days is silly. Perhaps he shipped it out later... (Since he's been doing that... tells you he will ship out Monday, instead it will be Friday, and if you badger him about it, he'll say you're an idiot and that you didn't appreciate it... blah blah blah... etc etc) Oh wells. Good luck on that, wonder if Morgan has received her Free raffle Pod. moRotorMotor 06-10-2005, 11:09 AM I'm confused. Carlos said somewhere about the price of the pods doesn't include being shipped by express. (ie. Fedex, UPS...). I believed he said that he shipped it by the cheapest rate. So are you saying that US Postal Service is suppose to provide tracking numbers on all packages, even to Canada? devious12 06-10-2005, 12:44 PM I'm confused. Carlos said somewhere about the price of the pods doesn't include being shipped by express. (ie. Fedex, UPS...). I believed he said that he shipped it by the cheapest rate. So are you saying that US Postal Service is suppose to provide tracking numbers on all packages, even to Canada? I'm not defending him but I don't think after all of this he would have sent everyone elses and not yours. I just think that if he sent it the cheapest way it will take a while to Canada. I sent a playstation once to Canada and it took almost 3 weeks to get there using the cheapest rate possible. Maybe he'll respond to this thread but after everything who knows if we will see him again on this forum. I'd say give it until Monday and if you don't receive it by then and there's no response from him then you can call the detective on it. Keep us updated Outlaws eXtreme 06-10-2005, 12:48 PM I'm confused. Carlos said somewhere about the price of the pods doesn't include being shipped by express. (ie. Fedex, UPS...). I believed he said that he shipped it by the cheapest rate. So are you saying that US Postal Service is suppose to provide tracking numbers on all packages, even to Canada? I am shipping out my Amber corners right now to another member... did the process over the internet at www.USPS.com... provided me with a tracking #. I asked my secretary whether they provide tracking # for out of the country and she said yes. Took me 3-5 minutes to finish packing, typing the address, and labeling. Makes you wonder why it would take Carlos so long even with 20 Pods, he can at least do about 5-10 a day without it taking too much of his time. I know that FedEX provides a tracking # out of the country, and so does UPS. moRotorMotor 06-10-2005, 01:15 PM Am I the only one left to get my pod? devious12 06-10-2005, 01:24 PM Am I the only one left to get mine? I'm not sure I have confirmation from 7 members including myself and Carlos would make 8, he said that a couple of member had dropped out of the g/b so I"m not even sure how many were due the pods I need to look through the thread. I'll check in a bit I'm at work right now so I don't have time to go through all of the pages unless someone else would like to do it and then I can compare what confirmations I have with them. Thanks Outlaws eXtreme 06-10-2005, 01:37 PM You should still have received a confirmation #... should show when he actually shipped. Riccio 06-10-2005, 07:40 PM MoRotorMotor: I just received the following message for you from CortC - by the way, I received my Pod yesterday. I'm VERY pleased with it! Here is the message I was asked to post for you by Carlos: Can you do me a favor, I am unable to post on the forum as I no longer have access... Can you deliver this message to: moRotorMotor Thanks... Leo, I have sent you several e-mails and have copies of all of them where I asked if you recieved your POD. It was shipped on the day I said, if I said I actually shipped it then it is shipped... When I said I was going to ship them a few months ago I hade every intension to do so; things came up... I do not have access to the forum anymore so cannot post there, when I shipped it priority mail the postal worker said standard confirmations do not work in Canada because they are not the ones scanning the package when it is shipped... You should get your POD soon... Thank you, Carlos Outlaws eXtreme 06-11-2005, 12:15 AM Perhaps standard confirmations may not work... that's strange.. since Tracking # still work. We've shipped to Canada, Mexico, and even to Japan. All of which came with tracking #s and had verification of the person that signed for the package. This was USPS. devious12 06-11-2005, 02:34 PM You should still have received a confirmation #... should show when he actually shipped. Yah your right it should have at least said when it was shipped. moRotorMotor 06-13-2005, 09:46 AM Well, fellow forum members, I have finally received my CF dash POD! Talk about a sigh of relief. It is the most beautiful custom piece made for the RX-8 in my opinion. Even though it have taken 6+months and a lot of frustration, I think I'll call it even and forget all the bad feelings I've had towards Carlos. I still hope to hear everyone recieve their PODs as well if that has still yet to happen. Goodluck to everyone! Riccio 06-13-2005, 12:18 PM Glad to hear you have received your POD - agree with you about the quality - it's an excellent piece of work. Maybe Carlos has been unsubscribed to this forum, he told me (in his forwarded email above) that he no longer has access. I join you in hoping everyone involved will get their pods - Brian (Devious12) - have you heard from everyone now? devious12 06-13-2005, 05:20 PM I have a seven count not including MotorRotor and Cortc of course he has his. I'm sure Motorrotor will respond soon thank you, and I think that's it, not sure though I must read over the thread. This is what I have: 1)Nemesis8: 2)jdoldstein2000: 3)Sendo: 4)devious12: 5)adrian-1: 6)ranger4277: 7)Riccio: All confirmed received pods let me know if I'm missing anyone besides MotorRotor cause I know Cortc was saying that two dropped out of the group by whom I will need to contact and get p/m confirmations that they got the refund also. Thanks to everyone for responding so I can wrap this thing up finally. Morgan 06-14-2005, 01:57 AM i'm waiting for mine:D but i don't really count...i just won mine. lol.

I learn it the hardway :rolleyes: LOL Hey the guys that have installed that CF dash pod cover, do you find there is a bit of reflection from the CF and glare the front windscreen a little? I have the RE Amemiya gauge pod and find it has a little glare - but there is a lot of bling in the pod so I don't care LOL :D moRotorMotor 10-03-2005, 07:39 AM ahmmm..... ebay link is not on adrian... I learn it the hardway :rolleyes: LOL Hey the guys that have installed that CF dash pod cover, do you find there is a bit of reflection from the CF and glare the front windscreen a little? I have the RE Amemiya gauge pod and find it has a little glare - but there is a lot of bling in the pod so I don't care LOL :D There is quite a bit of glare coming off of the pod during bright, sunny days. That is the only thing I don't like about the CF dash pod. But I'm a carbon fiber whore so I can live with it. :D |
