VT's G35S Sedan, just a tip. Take a LOT of pictures of the final product. Sets expectations and the community loves pictures.

Thanks

I had my doubts at first (expressed earlier in the thread) but don't think this post is fair, given the amount of progress shown.

At most VT jumped the gun in starting the thread, but then again he also used it as a tool to measure interest.

Maybe your impression of how a business like this is established is a bit off?

I'll sit tight for developments in here, and remain grateful that we have someone in our community to commit themselves to an operation like this

Thanks for the not so encouraging message. there are pictures a couple of pages back.

Realize that I am human and I have and had alot on my plate this past year, getting married, new baby girl born, house changing, working on my bachelors, and maintaining my current career as well.

With all that I managed to find the time to take an Idea and make it into reality, slowly and surely. Then after extensive research and planning, IMPORTED a specialty machine to be able to make these, Importing something into the states is not easy and Expensive!
Setting up a European machine to run on US standard power supply is another head ache that is still in the works. Then you have trial and error process that will follow.

So while you are "Endless dreaming" I already invested over $15K into this project. And will continue to invest as the legal papers are not free and so on.
I don't mean to bitch in anyway, just wanted to make sure you all know that this is happening and not just an IDEA.

The lips will be made out of plastic and that means if you will want to keep your mud guards, your will be able to cut the lips to shape around the mud guards. Easy and I could probably make a DIY when these will be final.

We all have to understand that this guy started this project in his garage unlike some other big name vendors. He doesnt have the right machine and knowledge base from day 1. So I can imagine he has been walking along side this project filled with trial and error. I really dont see the point to rush him to release the product. I hope he is taking all the time he need to perfecting the final product. Seriously dude, dont rush, dont cut corner, dont release halfa$$ stuff because your customers will speak up and you will lose all that time, money and effort for nothing.

I know some thought this product is of the dead or not going to happen because I parted out my sedan to sell it. No worries I still got a 2013 G37x sedan and most likely will keep my 2008 G35S as a Daily.

I will not make specific Dates on when this will be out for those waiting or having interest in this product.
Just know that I'm doing everything to get this to you guys by the start of the next show season.

Trial and error until I get this done to the point of sell-able product

Hey VT...i just purchased my 2011 G37 Jouney sedan about a month ago and I'm very happy to now be part of the community and culture that is G37. I've read thru your thread from page one and I haven't even looked at a bunch of kits yet...but I'm really digging the pics you showed (looks like mine, color and all...but cooler) of the front lip, side skirts and rear splitters. I'm in on the entire kit when you get it done and quality ready. I appreciate all the time and hard work your putting into releasing top quality craftmanship.
See ya when your done!

VT, I have had my hopes up for some time now that we would hear from you.... its been over a year and half now... I know you have been dealing with issues but seems like your projects dead and without updates for this long I will assume so. Please only respond if you actually have something to show otherwise I'm giving up on your product We have waited well long enough to get a reply or even some images from you of the final product or anything related to skirts for the sedan... please prove me otherwise
