Patiently waiting... These look fantastic and my car is still down AWP, so it'll be that much better when they come in.

All done!

[florante rea]

I'm excited:)

[dudermagee]

I want one

[revat619]

Any side shots showing how well it flows with the side skirts?

ummmmm :ugh:

[Chigga]

Been waiting for these and side skirts !

[Salem240]

So close to getting my shit in the paint booth!! Yessss!!:naughtyd:

[erict90]

Any pictures of it on a s14?

[s0fa king]

so how can i get my hands on one??

[sw20>>s14]

Finished product looks BADASS!!!

Great job!

[240sxvaj]

not bad, still like the Original look better, subtle and flows better with Navan sides

[FRpilot]

not bad, still like the Original look better, subtle and flows better with Navan sides

it looks almost like the greddy lip now that it is extended that low.

[Salem240]

not bad, still like the Original look better, subtle and flows better with Navan sides

How does it flow better when this is the same shape, just a 1/2" lower to be on the same plane as the sides? Please explain....

it looks almost like the greddy lip now that it is extended that low.

Yeah!! LOL!! Go buy a greddy and see how long it lasts...

[FRpilot]

it looks almost like the greddy lip now that it is extended that low.

Yeah!! LOL!! Go buy a greddy and see how long it lasts...

I’ll pass since I already have 2 oem lips, but I would think the greddy lip would last quite a while since it is made from urethane.

I’m just saying even though it's probably not as low as the greddy lip, it kind of resembles it.

[spooled240]

nah the greddy lip cracks easily; other members on this forum as well as myself have experienced this

lip looks good, but I really wanna see a side shot with the navan sides! :D

[gunmetalr32]

My whole car is getting repainted with the lip should have some good shoots soon

[dudermagee]

Sooooo when are you going to be able to sell these to non gb cats?

[s13 loverr]

^^it is not even available for gb members yet; or at least I haven't got word of it.

[gunmetalr32]

I'm actually in the process of making custom boxes for the lip once that's done I'm going to contact everyone on the group buy and take care of them first. After everyone is taken care of then I'll sell them to the public

[Salem240]

Need a lot of cardboard for my boxes, lol

[blueshark123]

Hey if shipping is to much i might combine shipping with florante rea

[spooled240]

I might be coming up to the bay area in a week, i would really like to pick one of these up on the way to save shipping/gas

[s13Kurt]

Since there's a few people that backed out are there any spots open?

I believe he's going to make the ones for the group buy first at a discounted rate then make more for others at a different price and most likely keep some in stock for future orders. Those who gave a deposit helped him fund the molding and production so they deserve a lower cost, others who waited should pay more since they did not invest and waited to pay till they saw the finished product.

I can respect that...not trying to unfairly benefit.

Hopefully I can get a piece from batch 2.

This would make sense IF everybody from the original pre-order actually stayed on, but considering this took WAY longer than expected and several of the original pre-order folks have backed out, it doesn't. So how do you propose changing the price on the people who just filled those recently vacated pre-order spots? Did they directly contribute to the molding cost? No. The money has been spent. But they should pay less because their name is now on a list? By your logic, no. You see what i'm getting at?

And just an fyi, i'll front my money on things when i know they'll be completed. I knew this thing wasn't gonna be made on time from the get go. That coupled with shoddy communication was reason enough FOR ME to hold on to my cash. Why blindly throw my money out there when i have no clue when or if i'll get a return on my investment?

That being said, the product is ready now and upon completion it's definitely something i would spend my money on.

[spooled240]

that's what he was saying, the people like myself who payed him the 100 bucks back in dec will only get the discount

[Marcus]

that's what he was saying, the people like myself who payed him the 100 bucks back in dec will only get the discount

ok cool. the discount on what? we were never given a solid price.

still seems quite subjective at this point. I am dissatisfied with the communication of the seller.

I wont back out as Revat is right, the money has already been spent. I do, however, expect a status update on where my money went and when it will come back.

I have a few questions and requests.



Is the pictured lip the final design?
Will the final price be lower than the project estimate of $250?
What is the cycle time for production?
What is the production material?

REQUEST:

Please update the List for those members who have paid.
I am listed as unpaid and that is incorrect.

[spooled240]

hopefully a generous discount since it has been a while.

I'm not on the list either

[superdorifto]

Ill pipe up, I paid for his kouki valence reps, and theyre beautiful and fit great...I have no doubt this lip will too

I cant speak to the overall project time however.

The group buy price is only for the people that placed a deposit in december once I fill the group buy they will be avaliable for everyone else.

sorry i have not posted much on here do to the fact that i didn't want everyone to freak out on the unfinished design. we tried to use all the angles and lines of the oem lip. when we lowered the lip and tried to used all the oem angles and lines the lip looked like shit (everyone would of wanted there money back and that would of been the end of that)

1st lip (not the finished product!!!)

the oem angle and lines on the right and left side look like shit.

so we fixed it we ended up using the angle of the navan sides and valances and it worked perfect!

this is the final design.

everyone will get a pm on the group pricing.

the material we used is the same as the navan sides and valances.

whole piece M.A.T fiberglass ( not bits and pieces and or scraps) the front part is reinforced with 5 layers. the rounded area has been reinforced with cloth fiberglass and it was also used on the upper mounting tabs

-THIS IS THE FIBERGLASS WE WILL BE WORKING WITH

[D.Jones]

Please PM me asap when you have one available!

[blueshark123]

So when are we going to be seeing them shipped i really dont wanna wait any longer if not ill be happy with a refund or someone can take my spot

[k0uki]

any shots with kouki sides? im really debating on this lip, or whether i should just keep hunting for a oem one.

[gunmetalr32]

I just got the custom made boxes today.

[Marcus]

Cool. What is the time frame?
also, what is the balance?

[N3cronomicon]

you never pm'd me back on pricing and availability bro (lip and valences)

[holdupswolledup]

Hey bro, I am interested in buying a s14 kouki front lip. I tried to pm you but your inbox is full. Please pm me back with pricing and availability or feel free to text/call me at 954.678.7557. I am a serious buyer. Thanks

[s0fa king]

another month gone.

[sw20>>s14]

Wonder if the nearly 11 month wait would have been worth it. Still a great piece though.

[s0fa king]

:love::love::love:

[revat619]

My god...

You're running a business bro. I can understand being busy, but your communication is absolute shit. Get it together man, seriously. At the very least do it for the sake and credibility of your business. :rolleyes:

What's the deal with this thing?

[chuki.s13.coupe.]

He's to busy going to Medieval times and shit. LoL

[Marcus]

status? thanks

[blueshark123]

SO whats the status?

[k0uki]

Has anyone got a response? I tried calling and pming him and have yet to get a answer back.

[k0uki]

So has anyone actually recieved their lip or a response yet? I still have yet to get a response back on getting a refund.

[Salem240]

So has anyone actually recieve.d their lip or a response yet? I still have yet to get a response back on getting a refund.
I recieved mine a few weeks ago and have talked to him since then. As far as what he told me he is making them and shipping out as they are done. I don't know about the refund though.

[Marcus]

oh nice. so how much was the balance?

[Salem240]

I'm not sure Marcus, I settled up with him on combined shipping for it and several other items from West Covina Nissan. He said he'd pm each member as the lips are done with the final cost and I have no idea when that is.

[k0uki]

Yeah, I got a pm to call him. Called, pmed, and emailed him and never got a response back.

[revat619]

What a joke...

and I'd actually buy one of the damn things too...

[inferno s14]

Whats up with this..i want a lip too

[florante rea]

I can't wait to get mine.

[k0uki]

I can't wait to get mine.

I can't wait to get a response back.....

[Marcus]

Ok, who has left the deposit for the lip who was not moved to the "PAID" list?

Who has received their lip?
What was the full amount?

Gunmetalr32, I am respectfully requesting an update now
I want to know where my money went. I want to know that YOU KNOW you have my money.
Thanks

[spooled240]

I paid and I'm not on the list. I contacted him in sept through text message and he was ok with me picking up the lip but it's pretty far for me and my car is not in dire need of the lip so I didn't pick it up yet. But he knows I paid.

If you paid through paypal, there should be a record of him recieving the payment, I wouldn't sweat it.

[florante rea]

Mine should be here tomorrow, combined shipping with Brian aka blueshark's.

[spooled240]

^nice

who in the LA area would like to combine shipping with mine? :D

[tacotacotaco]

im in the sd area but i was gonna see who was down to just have me pick up a truckload and have all the so cal people meet up to pick theirs up.

[Marcus]

^^Im down for that, however would it be worth it?

I mean, I will pitch in for your gas, but not more than shipping would cost me. ya know?



Thank you gunmetal for the reply. I will be in contact with you tomorrow.

[spooled240]

im in the sd area but i was gonna see who was down to just have me pick up a truckload and have all the so cal people meet up to pick theirs up.

I'm down for that also, should work out nicely if we get some more ppl

[Chigga]

I would love a update PM...

[Garcia's14koukils1]

Do you still have an oem jdm style kouki lip if yes pm me the price nd ur paypal shipped to 60402 thanks

[k0uki]

So has anyone gotten their lips? Im still waiting for my refund.

[florante rea]

Blueshark's and i recieved our lips 2 weeks ago.

[revat619]

whats up with these? How much? Can i buy one? Is this guy still alive?

[spooled240]

im in the sd area but i was gonna see who was down to just have me pick up a truckload and have all the so cal people meet up to pick theirs up.

were you still planning on picking them up?

[sw20>>s14]

My magic crystal ball tells me there probably won't be many more GBs in the near future.

[Salem240]

Finally got mine out of paint!!! The lip, sideskirts and rear valences are all from Gunmetalr32, I was tired and running late so all I have for the moment are cell pics. This has been a long, year long, project for this lip but I believe it has been well worth the wait! Thanks Adrian, you're fuckin awesome!

That blows. Looked like it was the best JDM rep on the market.
Maybe one of the rep companies should buy all the molds and what not off of him.

hey. i still have a deposit for one. got busy at work and left the world for a bit.

does your buddy still drive down to sd every couple weeks? your pm box is full. get back to me dude!

[spooled240]

i still need to pick mine up as well

[k0uki]

I am still waiting for my damn refund.

[1993fdrx7]

is it common for this guy to do this? (just disappear)
I am willing to wait but this is getting ridiculous.

[Marcus]

hey dude....whats going on

[bussitcustoms]

Been watching this thread for well over a year without posting. Would have put money down on one of these long ago if the OP's communication wasnt so bad. While Im still drooling over that lip... Im so glad I never made a deposit. OP, get it together man!

[sw20>>s14]

I've seen him pop up randomly in other FS threads. It's evident that he is very much aware of this thread and your inquiries, but just flat out doesn't give a shit.

Another case of someone that is obviously very talented at his craft, but severely lacks business acumen.

C'mon Adrian, don't leave these guys hanging.... it's a damn fine product and a great option for Navan aero, atleast let someone buy the molds and produce them.

As useless as it may seem for me to say, but I've hit 2 racoons and 1 squirrel so far and the lip didn't even budge, it's a lot more durable than greddy.

[spooled240]

If you guys have his number just hit him up. I texted him yesterday and drove out to Oxnard to pick it up 4 hours later..done. Needless to say he should be updating this thread, but apparently he is having some difficulties with his vendor account.

The lip is very nice. It took a while but I'm glad I waited. The quality is there as well as the aggressiveness and style that matches up with our OEM skirts.

[florante rea]

^^^^im running his lip, valances n navan sides. All were tight and very well made parts. U guys can see all his aero kit on The Kouki Thread. I posted some pics.Adrian was there with me, kept me updated on my parts.

Can't wait to see it all finished, love the color. Fuk, I need Ganadors..

[florante rea]

^^ his aero parts are legit. Yeah i can't wait to put her back together.

[black'N'proud]

Will some one post pics of their car with what ever areo you've bought from gunmetalr32. I'd like to see his work.

Oh just looked one page back.. never mind.

Yeah, mine and florante rea's car are the only ones that are running all his aero and are complete that I know of. This aero is top notch, tougher than OEM stuff and great fitment. Check the Kouki s14 thread also for other pics of mine and the pics of florante's.

[1993fdrx7]

i wish this guy wouldve replied to me, I tried like hell. I ended up settling for forcewerkz

[florante rea]

I can text pics of the lip, sides and lastly valances. Text me at 6109375052.

Why haven't mods stepped in yet? The OP is clearly still here, just avoiding this thread.

[pink godzila]

So did he ever refund the money back to people that didnt get the lip?

For full production, material and labor cost will not make much profit and there already bunch of replica lip out there.

[bussitcustoms]

This thread should just be moved here.

Nope, still waiting on my refund. Tried making a claim with Paypal, but since it is past the 45 days, they can't do anything.

If you link your Paypal and send payment via CC (like you should already), the CC company should be able to get your back.

[Marcus]

Hey man, whats going on?

i dont mind waiting if you're still making them, just keep me posted. if they're done, im sure you want the rest of your money.

please reply. thanks

[s0fa king]

Hopefully someone will step up. I sent a report to a mod. This is quite pathetic.

[98_240_KA]

I need my refund too. I called him and he said he's "working on refunding money". That was January...

sounds like he used all the deposit money to build a mold but ran out of money to pay the shop to produce the pieces for customers except for a few, like the people who let him borrow the oem pieces to make replicas from to keep good faith.

[Marcus]

as far as i know, that is not true.

apparently, the lips are finished. i havent gotten mine because i keep getting busy.

[spooled240]

I didn't let him borrow anything and I got my lip. I called him up and picked it up the same day.

[bornslippy73]

^ Take pictures of your lip to show proof. Adrian's exiting and potential customers need to be reassured. I didn't provide any deposit either and I stayed on top of sending payment when the time came and Adrian fulfilled his end as well.

I purchased his S14 Navan side skirts last year and his communication with me was consistent. The transaction was smooth without any issues.

[spooled240]

I don't have any pics...just trust me i picked it up lol

[98_240_KA]

I got my rear valances. But due to the time it took I have no need for the front lip. I know someone else will buy it. I just want my money back.

[Marcus]

got my lip. fits great. thanks dude!

[k0uki]

got my lip. fits great. thanks dude!

Any chance you can contact him, and ask him what is going on with refunds? Since he isn't replying back to the people who want a refund.

[Marcus]

i dont want to get involved with anyone else's transactions. if i do speak to him, i'll mention it but i wont require him to answer to me about it. although i'm sure he's heard it from others.

I'm a bit disappointed in the level of conduct here. The lips were made with deposit money. now that the lips are finished, what is the incentive for him to refund the money? by common courtesy, everyone who committed to him should pay the full balance.

i will defend the product as it has lived up to my expectations. fitment is great, looks great (subjective), price is great. however, i agree with most and i think i speak for most, in saying communication could have been better.

(i've said multiple times that i wouldnt ask for the refund due to my original commitment. even when my patience wore thin)

[98_240_KA]

Well it took almost a year first off... Secondly I sold my car... lastly I know someone else would love to have it... It would have been awesome to have a little more communication too.

[k0uki]

Anyone have shots of it with kouki sides.

[Marcus]

Yes it did, i trimmed it with a dremel and then hit it with a belt sander.

Thanks jay. I dont have any others, but ill get some soon

[sw20>>s14]

Anyone wants to sell theirs?

Very well put together kouki, props, makes me excited to get my lip.

[BlewByYou]

Im interested in buying one Pm me!!

[s13 loverr]

Does anyone know how I can get ahold of him? I have tried PMing, emailing, and even calling his own cellphone with voicemails and I received a reply back in January, but after that communication has been none on his side.

[bornslippy73]

That lip really looks and fits great. This sucks that Adrian isn't following up on any communication. Even on his side skirts thread it's still the same story. I bought his side skirts and I only did one test fit and it's a perfect fit.

Adrian should endorse his two "business projects" to someone that can personally oversee each transaction of all the current and potential customers.

I talked to him a while back in 2012 and he was on point with my transaction even attempting to meet me since he was swinging by the SF/Bay Area. He accommodated me very well as a first time customer.

.....contact me Adrian and I'll see if I can help you out. I won't put you on blast, but rather would want to get this done. I rather be involved in the solution instead of adding to the problem...of course I'm not disregarding how much your current customers are out-right fed-up to say the least.

[BlackZenkiS14]

Subscribing. I'd be interested in one if this dude is still alive and cares to sell anymore lol

[s0fa king]

welcome to the club. :wtc:

[cen805cal]

op could you get in contact with me thanks

[DriftEmperor88]

Damn hella nice lip. I would be down to buy a lip if this dude is alive.... Seems to me like bad customer service so its hard to want to put money down as well. Business 101, bad customer service = bad publicity.

[s13 loverr]

I have called, emailed, and PM'ed since January and still have yet to receive my lip....

[s0fa king]

this guy took money & ran. actually hes still active. Mods are too worried about the 2 bump limit, a legitimate issue and they're no where to be found...

[k0uki]

I pmed a mod about this a while back. Never got a response back.

[Drftr915]

Does anyone have Adrian's contact info, I made a down payment on the group buy and am trying to follow up. If someone can pm me his info I'd really appreciate it.

[sw20>>s14]

Does he still owe people money and/or parts? That's just sad...

[crewchief05]

anyone have this lip and want to sell it? or has he started responding?

[blueshark123]

i got one of the lips i would sell for the right price still new unpainted

[s0fa king]

I bought a real one instead. Fuck scammers.

[Silentalero]

Shame this thread went the way it did. If anybody wants to sell lemme know.

[tacotacotaco]

i have one of his lips im willing to sell

[revat619]

I know this thread is old, but if anybody is still willing to sell their lip, i'm interested.
