Hey guys - I'm still waiting for the tracking numbers myself. Just a heads up - I send this to my distributor in California who then sends the order to Eibach. Last time, Eibach shipped directly but didn't give the tracking numbers immediately. My distributor is going to ask them for a status update today.

I checked about a week before Viper ordered, and Eibach claimed they had a few of these kits lying around. I don't think it's a stocking issue, but I'll post when I have more info. Sorry for the delay!

Update
Eibach apparently misunderstood and shipped the kits to our distributor instead of directly to you guys. Viper's kit shipped yesterday (and I had a tracking # e-mailed to you), and I should have a FedEx # for Wolf soon. Once again, sorry for the delays, and I appreciate the patience! Thanks, guys.

Lucky Dog... Mine haven't shown yet, nor has a tracking # been sent either...

Oh well, I spent the day refurbishing and installing a set of used Vader seats I bought on ebay a few weeks ago... At least it was a productive day for the ti anyway...

Oh and Ludicrouspeed... Please find out where my set is...

I really apologize wolf - I'm not sure what's going on with your set. I still haven't gotten a tracking #, but I have been pestering my distributor on a daily basis (matter of fact, just did it again).

The "funny" thing is that I ordered this from the distributor that's closer to Eibach, and the dist was able to get me lower prices than the people I usually use. Gimp was witness to Eibach being *extremely* slow with a set of springs and sways for his brother's car, and I seriously hope that's not going to be the case this time. I will keep hounding them!

Do you still have a front sway bar by itself? G-stock autocross, I can only use the front.

I sold the two front sways I ordered as part of the first GB. I'll check on stock levels to see if Eibach has anymore lying around.

Wolf, apparently, Eibach shipped some sway sets elsewhere so now they're backordered. My distributor is talking to one of their guys to see if they can custom build you a set so you don't have to wait any longer. I will have an update on this progress hopefully by tomorrow. I can't apologize enough, but I can try to make it up to you.

Unhappy Super bummer...

Chookeat

That is very disappointing to hear...

At least Viper got his set, he'd been waiting longer than me. Please keep me posted on their progress, I'll leave it up to you to do what you can to make it up...

Trust me folks, Chookeat is good to his word. He'll keep you updated. This is a problem with eibach and how they do things.

He'll make it good.

Thanks, gimp. Sorry I didn't get back to you yesterday - I had a doc's appointment (we got rear ended awhile ago and I'm still seeing people about it) and was unable to contact my California distributor.

Wolf - Eibach has said the earliest they can get the kit out is 11/30. This upsets me almost as much as it must upset you, because this is the 2nd time this year they've burned me. I leave it up to you as to whether you want to keep the order placed or not. I can either refund your payment, or just ship the bars once they're ready. If you choose to keep the order placed, I'll send some other goodies to you as well (on me).

Chookeat;

Not to worry, I am a patient person, and I know it's not your fault... The price is too good to pass up, so go ahead and ship my order when it's ready and keep me posted... Anything else you toss in will just be icing on the cake!

Thanks!

Ya man, I got it installed 2 days later at school. By far the best suspension upgrade to get!!! When I had the car on the lift and the front bar installed it could pass for a pull up bar for how thick it is and the handling is awesome!!!

Did you get yours yet?
