    Reading up on all these clipnut issues.
    Would a rivnut be a better option?
    Cause I have a lot left over.

    I sent a priority package from Scranton to Newark, NJ. 3 weeks and went through Connecticut where it sat for weeks. Ugh.

    Sorry, I was off TW a while and catching up on the sagas. Didn't read the entire post.
    Looks like it came from factory. I've got to say KT did a good job.

    It is alright. The bolt covers look cheap and don't fit well.

    IMHO, it is worth $100, max. Not an OEM equivalent quality kit or value.

    Ah. The guy that skips to the end and wonders why Malvolio is bent out of shape.

    Texture is only skin deep, bud. Don’t marry for looks alone. You’ll get stood up at the thirteen-month altar.

    That's exactly what KTJO4x4 did also.

    Step 1: Dangle a Handle
    Step 2: Pre-Order Heaven (crowdsourcing without the benes)
    Step 3: ??
    Step 4: Profit!

    I have a delivery notice that mine have finally arrived in mailbox. Of course I’m at work so I don’t know if I got correct covers or not but you might want to start a color option on swap also instead of just 2 upper or 2 lower. If I remember correctly some have black handles and some of us (like me) ordered grey handles. If this was added, sorry cause I didn’t see it.

    Mine finally arrived today. Add me to the list of M8 instead of M6 clip nut
    Everything else looks fine at the moment. :annoyed: I’ll just get one locally and get it installed.

    I was somewhere in like the first 50 pre-orders and mine didn't even ship until December 28, Departed Seattle on December 30 and hasn't been seen or heard from since. USPS still says scheduled delivery tomorrow. I'm not holding my breath. I've had my own sagas with USPS the last month. I have some trigger upgrade springs that were shipped December 2nd that have yet to arrive. And some hot sauces that were shipped Dec 18, didnt' arrive until yesterday and the package was mangled. 3 out of 8 bottles smashed and all the labels ruined.
