Is there any place to complain about vendors sucking ass? or is that not kosher on Azine?

idk even why it bothers me so much, considering i didnt pre-order or anything, but the way HT handled the grill was just...

it was amateur.

^ I am surprised you don't know, seeing how much you frequent this board. We even linked it a couple times in other thread in references to what vendors should NOT do.

looking at c-mods other work though (tsx/tl) the shit we are asking him to make is like wayyyyy different from the stuff he normally makes, it doesnt look even close to something he'd make, so i think it might be waaaay out of his comfort zone

havent heard from him in a while though so maybe hes cooking up something legit from us. RJ is done with grills/bodykits because of his supplier issues, and heeltoe is a fucking joke at this point.

So we're pretty fucked considering the euro grill costs like 300 and then we gotta import that shit too...

even if you got the euro grill youd be doing all the fab work yourself to get it how we made it in the other thread

heres c-mods thread:

https://acurazine.com/forums/2g-tsx-2009-2014-143/c-mod-acura-tsx-2009-2010-sport-mesh-grill-grille-825900/

he is my new favorite vendor, even if he never produces anything, by virtue of the fact that he has replied several times in one thread and responded to customer input

that = mind blowing

also, yall better start liking your stock grill

its still possible that i myself will buy the HT grille because well, there are no fucking options, and if it looks good it looks good, but if i have choices on where to buy things, its definitely not gonna be HT thats for sure

i dont know how many more "coming soon" or "ill be done in 2 weeks" i can stomach

^ And that's really a shame seeing as how most people see the grille and can;t see past the grille to see a truly beautiful car. I new, NICELY done grille is all we need for our cars to get some real attention. The RJ grille, for example, if ever put into production, would make our cars look so much better.

This part is one of the most in demand part, and no one can step up and do it right so far. it's a shame.

yeah lol. ever since this car came out everyones been fucking crying about the beak, yet noone has made us a fucking aftermarket replacement part here

were stuck to fucking vinyling it and doing weird shit to it. the ronjon grill, if it ever came out for us, would be gorgeous, its the best design ive yet to see and makes the 4G tl look fucking nice up front. top 2 posts on his facebook asking for a 2g tsx grill too

http://www.facebook.com/ronjonsportdesign

Oh Well. Maybe ill teach myself fabrication over the summer.

i cant even like stuff... what a fucking asshole. i only ever posted one thing, ironically, a photoshop of the 4g tl grille on a 2G tsx. maybe i hurt rons intellectual property with that one

If heeltoe had a dollar for everytime we bashed on them about an unifinished grille, they might have the resources to complete the aforementioned grille...

step 2. create product
step 3. collect money

ht business practice:

Nah, im not paying for a nonexistant product

you can use that as justification to say i shouldnt be complaining, but regardless of whether or not i paid doesnt really change much about the situation

i am being vocal about it, marcus can correct me anytime he likes

sure, i understand the economics behind us funding the development, its a bit of a trust agreement, we pay up front and ht has some money aside this way he doesnt get stuck with a bunch of grills noone wants all of a sudden

theres also some assumption on the payees part that the work will be done in a timely manner.
