Have you checked out the grigio estoque? …. nasty.

I have! It is indeed a very sick color. That was on the top of my list too but it's too close to my 370z color.

AMS could do it if you really didn't want to use UR. There is a local guy here with a neon green lambo with the UR tt kit on it and it looks and runs amazingly.

How in the hell will we be on the same level now? You better be saving to send another car (mine) to UGR!

hm....any links you might be able to point me to?

HKYStormFront · 01-15-2012, 11:03 PM

i don't have any off hand as most of the threads have been deleted. they used to be a vendor on the big viper forums but now they have been kicked off due to bad business practices. they may have a few sticky'd as a warning

trust me alex, you've known me for a while now. i can't tell you what to do or not do but be careful and be as involved as possible if you send your car there

Nitrouz · 01-15-2012, 11:10 PM

oh I know and I value your opinion a lot Patrick, which is why I want to know more. I really appreciate the heads up. I'm going to do some more research now...

/\ dude, duct tapes works for EVERYTHING!

Kinda reminds me of that other shop in TX that specializes in vipers that has such a bad rap, can't remember the dude's name of the top of my head.

I guess I'm lucky Heffner is only about an hour and a half away....not that I'll ever have enough money to send to him, but he's the one I plan on taking a Viper to to have it inspected.

yea that would be a good comparison honestly. the shady business practices of hennessy would mirror UR really well. they will do a few really nice jobs on a new model for magazines and new owners to gather interest for their kit then go to 100% profitability mode and cheapen out on everything

The only plus for Hennessy now is that shop has turned around, finally.
They fired about 95% of the staff and Hennessy himself really does not deal with the company anymore (figure head basically) so builds & quality have improved a lot.

yea i don't see that happening at UR. the bothers are making a boat-ton of money, paying their workers pennies on the dollar, and living a care free life. why would they change? plus they privately own it, no one can tell them what to do

Yep, basically it will happen where they finally piss off the wrong customer and sh1t hits the fan.
Then again, a lot of times they just go underground (pun intended) and emerge as a new company behind a curtain.
