It should be a stocked item and ready to ship at moments notice for the most part. If inventory gets low then more need to be made to replenish. I understand the cost associated with maintaining back stock, but that is what keeps customers happy and more willing to make an impulse purchase.
agreed. Customer service right? I think the delays are based on how they run their business. It costs $ to keep in on the shelves. Some companies get the orders THEN build it; it helps keep costs down, but it often drives customer satisfaction down as well if they are not upfront and/or well advertised about the time delay.

going to put the car up on jacks tonight and PB blast all the bolts. This way in the morning, (after a few cups of coffee) I am hopeful that this will go without major issues. I always seem to run into issues with my installs. This doesn't reflect on the product, just my lack of experience of working on cars. LOL...I'll keep you all posted.
wish me luck. DIY video and pictures to follow.

Let us know if ya need any help...there is a DIY on here and YouTube by me already, but more the better...you might need some washers in the mid section (so it dosent hit the cross member on the mid pipe) like some others have but other then that you're a good to go. I'm so glad that some others see the great value in the exhaust system. In stock, great price, great communication....WIN WIN

Yeah, having never done this before, it took me all day, but I finally got it dialed in late last night. No matter how I tried to adjust the system, I'm just 1/16 above the cross beam. How did you all adjust this? If you input washers, what bolts did you put them on under x-beam? Cause on mine, there are a tone of bolts.... I took some pictures yesterday during the install and will post later today; I hope. I ran into a few issues, but I'm not sure if that wasn't to be expected. I think if I had the right tools, it would have gone much faster. Anyway, if you could provide me a picture of what bolts you or someone else used washers on, I'd appreciate it a lot....
