rec'd r_towle's and geniousanthony's payments yesterday
thx.
Sent out payments for everyone else to AA yesterday and called George to let him know we were good for the 30 plus neeeded for the Group Buy. Final group of payments will go out on Monday.
Sorry but those that have not sent their payments in have until Saturday to get them in to me or you are SOL. You'll have to wait for the next buy in 4-5 years, maybe.....

Lets hope george isnt cheaping ut on the steel and U>S or any northa american steel is better than Chinese -you guys should see the crap comming out of China that is exploding when put into a refinery application.
But I though george made them at AA ?
or maybe its gone to someone in Mexico?
Anyway I dont think he would make us shody flares he has too much to lose in the comunity yeah there is allot of car nuts -but it is still a small word

Not AA, but locally. There's a video of the place here somewhere where you can watch them being made (last groupbuy) ...

Anyone else get the receipt from AA? Mine is for flares only and I ordered and paid for flares and rockers. Estimated arrival date is March 1st so I'll wait and see what arrives.

Hi,
Mia at AA has said that Rockers will ship out separately in the next week or so.
Lotsa work on her part so she needs to be thanked big time.
I thought that most would be happy that something was on the way so quick after the payment got in!!!!

Sorry about multiple posts
- I apparently ride the short bus with you know who
when it comes to posting pics.
The only thing I wish is that AA would have packed these nicer. They had a bunch of paper in the box but all the flares were together and the paper was wadded up on top of them. When I repacked them for storage I wrapped each flare and still had enough paper for a bottom box liner and top liner. Box is all sealed up and they should be safe until they are needed.
Of course it would not be proper to install these on my six....
would it?
OH - Sorry about the messy garage, just upgraded an aquarium in my home office and I have stuff all over the garage until the old aquarium goes.

Well Rich yours are going out to you end of next week or??? Not real sure yet as the Money Order you sent me was made out to me when I requested them to be made out to AA. I caught it yesterday when I was getting ready to ship the final set of MO's. So I have to go and get a MO or cashiers check and send it out tomorrow or Monday. AA knows that you have an order waiting so its not their issue at this time.
Others have had their Mo's in for a period of time waiting for us to reach the 30 buyer threshold so please be a little more patient as I take care of this.

Did AA make any extra that are still available for a group buy purchase? Just getting in to this forum as I am picking up my teener March 8th in CA. Flares are something I am looking to do and would love to get in on the action for a full set if I would be so lucky.

Shipment update.....
For those that may not have received their flares yet AA contacted me this weekend and said that remaining shipments of Flares will go out next week as his fabricator completes the order. These will likely be timed with the shipments of rockers for those that also ordered those.
