Carbon Fiber Trunk for the G coupe!

hello everyone,

it upsets me!! that there is no vendor out there sells carbon fiber duckbill trunks for the G coupe!, i've been in the hunt for one since January!, first i was waiting for the Autokits-X trunk but i contacted them and they said there is no CF version of the trunk!

also the AMS Trunk is not available any more! (the one they have in the website)

finally i contacted Concept Automotive (previously strafe automotive) around April about the AMS trunk and they said he can get it for me in a week!, last month i placed the order from their website and few days later i contacted them and they told me it's under production!? i asked them if it's gonna take long? like months? , they said no, they will let me know when it's done.....it's been now 25 days since i placed the order lol so i don't think they are serious about getting me that trunk!

so anyone knows where the hell i can find the AMS trunk???

Man,

1) Isn't your car overheating and acting up? Stop wasting your money on her until you figure out what is wrong with it and have all the issues fixed.

2) Did you just make an online transaction to an overseas company for a product that they don't even have?

You're honestly just digging yourself a deeper hole.

Another thing about strafe Is they do not make these parts. They only sell them, Do a search over my G35Driver.com about them.

haha it's not overheating, it's just the temperature gauge works only when the car gets warm and it's making the car shakes on start up! , i am trying to figure out what's wrong!! but at the same time i'm buying some treats for her , i'm hoping the Thermostat i ordered will fix the problem.

they did not place any transactions, they gave me an invoice after i placed the order and that's it. they did not charge my credit card yet.

Last time I heard they dropped their vendor account over at driver and disappeared. You might want to look into it if you're dealing with Strafe.
