Bottom line, I agree with everyone in here. Fransis needs to take care of this. Even if that means taking them back for a full refund. He could easily fix these in an hour and resell them. I'm not trying to offend anyone...except baltbitch who was being a *****.

Keep the thread alive? I dont care if it gets locked

My point is he facked up. I'm a biych, and Greg is a very nice person. Who has been completely taken advantage of.

I'll keep speaking my mind. I am worked up. My good friends are everything to me, and this is complete bullshit.

Francis is flat out ignoring him. I know that for a fact because when another member sent him a text this evening he responded. When My Greg here did... guess who didn't answer?

You gotta realize, these aren't MiniH1s that take 30 seconds to install. Realistically I think 750+shipping is a fair price(IF THEY WERE DONE RIGHT).

my whole point is your bitching and moaning isnt going to get ANYTHING accomplished. you have spoken your mind more then once. im not going to sit here and say your a bitch because i think your bitching is justified BUT francis will suffer the consequences sooner or later.

You guys realize that "big" retrofitters charge like $850-1000 for just the same shitty housings these guys use and a TRS MH1 Stage3 kit right? No custom harnesses, no upgraded projectors, no halos, nothing.

It's sad really. Companies like Lightwerks really overcharge imo for some of the simple work they do. I'd much rather pay somebody like you the same amount who does far better work.

because companies like that WILL back their work if its justified.

maven will back his work and im sure buyhids will aswell but look at this ******* street racin azian.... where the **** is he? no where to be found. robbed a member of 1000 bucks.... you wont get that from the larger companies or maven.

that's a valid point, plus charging that much is really the only way you could turn a large enough profit to cover the cost of a building/employees.

Found out earlier that Nate's lights came out of the box looking just like StrutinSouls (i.e. Detached shroud and loose projector) They are headed back to Francis (blamed on shipping). We'll see...

Never mind.. it's not as bad as I thought it was and I misunderstood what you were saying. But what makes someone a bitch? She's speaking her mind and trying to stand up for something she believes in. It's called not being a sell out and hiding in the crowd. If something upsets her she'll say it and that's respectable.

Same thing as the above statement.. not blowing things out of proportions.. saying "oh that's easy to fix... your going overboard with a full refund" is really not helping the situation and that's what she's trying to get across. Her posts add more value to this thread then a post saying "your going overboard" or "your getting over worked"

Can we please shut the Front door about this already? It's not about the price, it's about the product. So what I have the money to spend a $1000 on cobalt headlights, is that really your concern? I'll just take this comment as jealousy.

Yeah.. but Francises headlights don't have custom harnesses either.. hand on, I'll get the picture I took of his "wiring".

exactly. they have overhead, employees, website and all that jazz....bottom line is if you cant double your profit things arent worth being made half of the time. francis is a complete idiot and a coward for not atleast stepping in here to save himself....not that he can...but he hasent even attempted.
