    Luis, his main glass layer or whatever you call him, left just after last year's Black Friday sale, so that's when delays started happening...

    it will just take some time for Tim to get things caught up and flowing again...

    Sucks for him, but that's not a good reason to lie to customers. It took me 2 months of constant calls and 3 two hour drives to get him to do mine after I already paid.

    Same price as regular premolded fenders plus a 15% discount. The reason it got done is because I went through Devin, not an extra money incentive.

    yah... from the stories i heard, it sounded like things were not handled well...

    it's those stories that led me to go with Hanneman bedsides... didn't feel like having to work so hard for the glass...

    Yeah thats part of the reason why I went with Fiberwerx... they dont have the greatest reputation either but I decided to drive down and pick mine up to avoid all the shipping nightmares I hear about the glass companies.

    Also they stopped working on their 6" fenders and bedsides so I wanted the extra space...

    Hey everyone,
    I'm looking for a someone to do some welding this weekend in Vacaville CA. I'm going to be installing my LT suspension and have some gussets I would really like to install while everything is off the truck. If you can help out and bring a welder to my house and weld up some stuff, I can even pay some cash money on top of beer for your work.

    the reason i said that was my dad emailed him after i lost communication with him... the email was titled "custom glass" and he explained that he needed custom glasswork down for his chase truck and stuff and he got a reply within 45 minutes AND a call from him to explain details.. maybe he just doesnt make a bunch of money on the premolded glass? or enjoys custom work more? :notsure:

    edit:

    although when i did get the class it was top notch and needed VERY little work to fit

    Thats whats im thinking cause i would get the front LT which i would spend $4500 on anyways then part the truck out and hopefully end up breaking even with free LT :D i just texted him lets see what he says. Its a bit of a drive from riverside but i have a friend that lives in prescott going to school out there so i could crash with him. What are the chances of any of the lt kit being bent or tweaked from the rollover ???
