Hey everyone. I'm at SEMA right now, and I wanted to check up on the thread. I don't think street concept has any hood for the CL because they deal with VIS, they are a couple miles away from the warehouse. If they think they'll be getting hoods, they won't. They are located in CA just like me. The hood above is not anything close to an ACURA CL hood, and the response from streetconcept (EMAIL) was pretty damn ghetto. They won't be having the hood for a couple months. I actually ordered 2 extra hoods, so I have 4 hoods left! They are shipping the hoods as they are made. So once hoods come in, I'll be shipping them out according to whoever placed the orders first. I'll be back in the office on monday! I'll try to check on this thread as often as I can, but i'm being charged .50 cents a minute on this damn email station and its slow!

Exactly. ^^^^^ (Thanks for steppin in man)

You guys.....everyones been asked numorious times to please stop whoring the thread. We can ask again...but for some reason, i fear it will still happen. If you guys want to risk getting this thread shut down, and not being allowed to make a 4th thread...then be my guest. Its great the hoods are starting to arrive....yahoo...but killing this thread, make more work for the mods, and causing more hardships isnt going to make anything easier.

Honestly, I fear some of you are just excited to see the first hood had arived and fit....thats great and all, but realise the other 19 are NOT just going to show up next week....we still have a long road ahead of us with getting the rest of the hoods here, and also trying to strive for compensation.

I understand some of you prob dont realise how much work it takes to go through all these threads and clean them out because they've been whored so much. Its just added complications Klepto and the other MODS have to do, to keep this message board clean.

Im trying to gather up all the info/posts/dates/etc. from ALL 3 Threads so I can present our case to an auto attorny I know. Everyone whoring the boards isnt helping me try to clean out all the crap so we can look perfessional when I show all this info to the attorny. Im using my time and effort to gather up all the info so hopefully we can get some kind of compensation....the added time its taking to clean out all the whoring and crap posts isnt helping. If you all want to continue to whore the threads....thats fine....but dont expect anything in the form of compensation from VIS because im sure an attorny isnt going to want to read through numorious pages of pointless posts between members...and im not going to continue to clean everything out, trying to help everyone out, if it continues to happen.

Please guys, im not trying to be an A$$ Hole....but all this whoring is creating a lot of extra work for me and Klepto and the other mods for sure. Im trying to help everyone out so we can get our case looked at by an attorny to see what type of compensation we can get...So please do you part and dont whore the threads...you'll be helping me and Klepto out very much!
Thanks! -CJ
