"'couple more parts needed on order and finish detail...."

I'm assuming its the grill. I dont see that in the picture.

I'm cool with waiting...I want everything done right so I dont have to worry about things.

Yeah, they painted up to there and are going to blend the rest. I didnt think they were going to paint that far back...good that they did...no complaints here.

They also asked me if I wanted their fabrication guy to make me a new grill since my other one got all bent up. Should I have them do it? I'm not sure what it will look like or how good since I was thinking of buying on from the groupbuy thing I think I remember reading earlier.

what grill groupbuy? Sam's (ST2000)? He's no longer in the business. Smitty's? He can't get in touch with his poc at Grill Tech. Unless I've completely missed something, there is currently no grill groupbuy.
I stand to be corrected.

Well, I just found a more recent thread on the Grill Tech effort that Smitty started. You had seen something more recent than I was aware of, however there seems to be the issue of how long before their ready. There are a couple of posts on the board today. Sorry for the mis-information.
