I've got a good handful of pictures on my Cardomain page. Check my vBGarage for a link. As of now there wasn't enough interest from the community to do other GA stuff. That doesn't mean I'm not working on stop for everyone it's just that these projects of mine aren't going to be mass produced by Cerious.

your not the only one, she hasnt emailed me back eitehr. but most of the days she is not working or does she not have time to answer phones.

Update: I received another e-mail from Linda that had the following.

"We expect the hoods to be ready soon, hopefully a month or less. But may be up to 2 months."

The timing would be perfect, just in time for spring. Plus I can get some body work done too.

Hope this helps

We simply can't get any(Thanks to the government, military, and aerospace industry getting it all. They have the $$$ for big contracts, which take priority over the smaller companies). So I can't really give you a date, basically whenever our supplier can get some for us. It's really hurting our business, and many others. Most experts in the industry believe it will not get better soon. Maybe some people would be interested in fiberglass instead? Basically, just tell the people to be patient if they can(everyone will get their hoods as soon as it is possible), if not, refunds can be issued. Then when we finally get carbon(and the hoods) in stock they can pay then.

Like I said, they weren't the first company I've gone through that has this problem.

thanks for the update

Bouchie11982 · 02-03-2006, 06:36 PM

hey Darren, *i also replied back to you in the GAOC thread but you might not have seen it* will cerious make a fiberglass one in the SD for the same price i would be paying for the CF??

Grand_Damn · 02-04-2006, 02:27 AM

what would the chances they could make a white CF hood and what would be the price range for that???

it'll look better plus be unique (or now)

Bouchie11982 · 02-04-2006, 06:18 AM

probably slim to none cuz of the demand as well.

Wouldn't just fiberglass be a little cheaper?

honestly i havent a clue...i also emailed Will about it.

GTgoddess · 02-16-2006, 10:51 AM

So whats the deal with this. Does this mean we probably will never get the hood until the middle of the year?

Bouchie11982 · 02-16-2006, 11:57 AM

rickhigginshtbr · 02-16-2006, 07:48 PM
