    One built, one just hit the paint booth, got 4 engines in my shop to build, just finished a cage and turbo kit on a 67 buick, building a TH400, need to freshen my 727... very busy. Don’t post much. More activity on Facebook with the group I race with.

    Where Are All The Pre 2010 Members

    Traffic on these web boards seems to be dying. I remember the height of it in the early 2000s with Yellowbullet and other web boards. B bodies site seems to be dwindling. I think I joined this one later but don’t post much.

    Your thoughts on the 5.7 hemi tick

    It’s absolutely insane. I decided to find a nice old 1st gen 12valve. No ECU, no BCM, No DEF, no emissions at all. Just need one with no rust lol.

    When you pay $1200 for an AAR hood, you expect more from Stinger Fiberglass

    I’ve ordered fiberglass from VFN, Unlimited and Glasstek. The Glasstek is really nice fiberglass. The VFN is easily a close second. The Unlimited stuff was cheap, flimsy, race type fiberglass. Very crude in fit and finish. It has a “rubbery” feel to it compared to the others. Here’s a picture of...

    When you pay $1200 for an AAR hood, you expect more from Stinger Fiberglass

    I get that and agree. All of my posts are based on your post #3. If I understood that post correctly, the owner flat refuses to work with you abd said fix it. I’m not saying you should be ok with that. All of my post are from the perspective of “where do we go from here”.

    When you pay $1200 for an AAR hood, you expect more from Stinger Fiberglass

    I don’t see voicing an opinion as digging a hole, but everyone sees things differently. I’m not defending the manufacturer, I’m just pointing out what I see as the logical path forward. You’re welcome to disagree.

    When you pay $1200 for an AAR hood, you expect more from Stinger Fiberglass

    I never accused anyone of throwing a tantrum. It’s a general statement as I deal with it frequently for my day job. You have been very level headed, however, society’s attitude today is generally very entitled and childish towards problem resolution. Pointing out the individual costs just...

    He may be a dick, but charge back without return of the hood is outright theft.

    When you pay $1200 for an AAR hood, you expect more from Stinger Fiberglass

    Completely different scenarios. The hood is unpainted and requires more work to complete. In your situation, it’s a negotiation on a depreciating asset and you’re standing there in person.

    When you pay $1200 for an AAR hood, you expect more from Stinger Fiberglass

    I agree with that as well. In this case, he has to with any direction he chooses. It’s a matter of how much of either. Some people are willing to spend boat loads of both for a matter of principle. I pick those battles carefully. We’re where we are in customer service because morals, ethics...

    When you pay $1200 for an AAR hood, you expect more from Stinger Fiberglass

    He paid $800 ish, some tax and the rest was freight. That should have all been broken down to make things clearer. I’m not dismissing your point, but in reality it’s an easy fix for anyone doing the prep, paint and bodywork on the hood which has to be done regardless. If he can’t do it himself...

    When you pay $1200 for an AAR hood, you expect more from Stinger Fiberglass

    In my mind, the manufacturer should offer to cover a reasonable repair cost. You’re talking a couple of hours of labor and under $20 worth of resin and mat. One would of thought that the manufacturer would have filed a claim against the shipper for $150 or so and then refunded $250 back to the...

    When you pay $1200 for an AAR hood, you expect more from Stinger Fiberglass

    I understand both sides of the argument here, but if you remove emotion and apply logic, returning it for a refund will most likely cost more than repairing, which would be negligible given the prep work required to paint the hood anyway. Then comes the question of who pays that freight bill...

    When you pay $1200 for an AAR hood, you expect more from Stinger Fiberglass

    They’ll most likely recommend a proper fiberglass repair with resin and mat. It’s not hard to do.

    When you pay $1200 for an AAR hood, you expect more from Stinger Fiberglass

    This sums it up in my mind. Should it have been packaged better? Yes. Should the trucking company have handled it more carefully? Yes. Should the owner of Stinger be punished for the mishandling? Maybe if you’re a vengeful child like some replies want you to be. I agree he should’ve at least...

    Getting rid of the TV altogether.....

    Anyone gone down this road? With the lack of anything worthwhile on the tube, I’ve been thinking of just getting rid of cable and using the TV for streaming off my phone. Anyone gone this direction?

    Human nature, unfortunately. Our minds want to generalize, group, sort and categorize.

    Nice grouping on the target above! The only people who ever respond to my ads are those that want something for nothing and have zero posts on this site. They'll probably want to send me more money so I can have cash waiting for their courier to pick up the item. I don't even waste the time on...
