Brown Santa made another visit to me yesterday as well.
Haven't had a chance to open the box and check them out yet.

Worth the wait. Both flares and rockers are top notch in quality and appearance.

We are rubber padding the last hit in the press for the rear flares. Those
will be done late today. Then the rear flares need to flanged at the
bottom and cleaned. This takes two people two days to finish. We should
have them all finished and ready to ship by late Wednesday or Thursday
this week. The rear flares take considerably longer to do than the front
ones. Longer than I expected for sure. I can drop ship some for you
tomorrow if you need. Thanks, Tim.

I can understand this. It seems takes longer that you would think to get production running. You take your best estimates and even pad a little. The key is the product is top notch. I don't mind waiting a bit for quality work.

Cool, maybe my flares and rockers will arrive before I leave for Scotty's. These are going to look so good on my car!

If any of you guys bail on your flares, please sell them to me
I am in MD and was stupid not to get in on this before.
Fail on my part, yes I know

Donald - Sorry there was a mistake on shipping instructions. I made a copy of the letter you sent me but I don't have an address other than the return on the envelope. Hopefully you can call UPS and have them redirect or leave a note authorizing them to leave at house. My apologies. Mark

They have tried to deliver mine twice, once more and they go bye bye. Was going to go pick them up but work during their business hours. Short of a miracle mine will be heading back to AA soon.

I got my flares. i had gotten a set a couple years ago but had to sell do to fund shortage.
The set I just got seem to have more 'ripples' in them. I know a little bit is normal but these seem to me fairly significant. I don't recall my last set have any. Any thoughts on this?

Mine have ripples in them as well. Nothing that can't be fixed but I was expecting them to be smoother from what I had heard. Keep in mind that the factory flares had ripples as well.

They all do. Unfortunately that is a result of the stamping process
So how do you "iron" out or cover up these ripples?

Check with Mia at Auto Atlanta. My flares and rockers came in April. The rockers had a corrected address on them.
