I got a call from Alex at AOE this morning. He didn't like the way the clear coat looks since the bumpers get blasted before PC. He is making another and will ship it raw with some rustoleum clear.
I got a new compressor for Christmas, so now I have an excuse to get a die grinder and a ton of roloc discs....
 
I got a call from Alex at AOE this morning. He said my bumper was shipped out today (Friday). He said I should see it in 4 business days. Which this means it will not go under the Christmas tree :( Shipping out on the 9th was a pipe dream!
 
I never really thought it would ship on time. Quite frankly I'm ok with taking a little extra time to ensure a good product rather than rush to vet it shipped.

I am not upset, just seems like anymore a lot of companies are over promising and under delivering. I might be more upset if the product was not so damn good!! Hopefully I am next on the call list.
 
:( sorry guys, I didn't think it would get pushed back this far. I guess I know what to expect now, for these sort of things anyways. When I was helping my dad with his sign fabrication/manufacturing, no matter how tight the deadlines or difficult the jobs, we hauled ass, worked over night, ate quick and never once late for any job. That's the way always done things and I was expecting the same.

powder coating tomorrow.
 
^Ditto!
 
My only concern is how are the welds/workmanship. Did he cut corners/rush to bang them all out. I guess I'll find out soon enough.
 
Before he even got started, I stressed him about the welds especially for the raw orders. I hope the welds are as good as the pictures I posted a few pages back.
 
Anybody get their bumper yet?
 
Alex called me 3 hours ago, he said all bumpers are shipped except the last order from Martyj. Just got home from Fresno, picking up my bumper Monday.
