    I was so close to pulling on a front and rear bumper for memorial or labor day, but so glad I waited. I hope it works in your guys favor. Sad to see that these people have been down this road before and are back at it again.

    What a shock! I was their installer for the beginning of their business until about a year and a half ago and I never would have thought this would happen, they have been trying to get me to work at their shop forever and finally hired someone else doe to logistic issues.

    Crazy stuff!

    I totally wanted to if they were closer, they have always been really good to me and I know first hand they busted their ass. I dont know what happened...I wonder if it was just a lack of manpower? I know they were growing really fast and were trying to grow the business to a higher level.
    This is just a bummer for everyone. Sucks to see people on both sides suffer....

    I've got all their armor. I love their product. Bought, waited and installed in beginning of the year. Being local I checked out their shop, met Tyler and was sold. Their customer service, quick to fix issues and genuine family feel made me feel confident. But thats all gone. It sucks because we needed them to succeed. Now I have to deal with shipping, not meeting the vender face to face and seeing the product. First world problems when one can spend 10k on mods on a 35k truck, try to break it and complain when company who can fix it goes bankrupt.

    I will be there. I won’t be able to break away though because I have two trainees with me for the next couple months. I’ll definitely try to break away for a minute to say hi though!
