Actually I will be honoring the same discount for the people who take the G5 trunk, everyone on the list has waited long enough, if your willing to work with me, I don't see why I wouldn't hook you up a little more.

It's partially true, we do have factories overseas in China. We do hire individuals to make the parts for us. As far as pay is concerned I have no idea, but we treat all of our employees with respect. We pay what the market pays any employee for labor. Its actually customary for the employees overseas to typically get 1 day off a week.. funny thing is we complain about only have 2 days off a week, if we're lucky.

It's only for people on the list, they've spent money on a product they don't even have yet, so it's only fair we take care of them.

And the other option is that they sit on 20+ "whoops" trunks for a loooonngg time? At least a little further incentive for taking what would technically be considered a mistake. They'll be able to sell a few extra Cobalt Tjin trunks easier than they will 20+ G5 ones I can promise that.

I've decided I'm going to take the G5 Tjin trunk pending your fitment test tomorrow (which I'm sure it will fit). I'll PM you as well in case you glance over this post.

God Bless America. Where suing someone for something that is your own fault is becoming solid source of income for people

No, there were two seperate molds. The Duraflex trunks came out with the taillight cutouts.

Great, it won't be tomorrow since we're closed on the weekend, but it should be Monday or Tuesday.

Mods: I need access to editing my first post around, I don't know why I got locked out of my own thread/OP. I need to start adjusting based on who wants the G5 trunk and so on and so forth. Thanks.

as far as I know there's no way for us to give you access to the OP, I think it's too old. My suggestion is to try PMing an administrator first, or maybe making a new thread if that fails.

It's only illegal if you get caught.. if you get pulled over tell the cop you were reversing in neutral, Flinstone style.

That is a great comment! But I think the lack of white lenses would be a dead giveaway.

I do that a lot actually, get the car rolling in reverse than throw it in neutral and let it roll. Probably not a good habit but meh...

If you'd like some information added to the op or something updated, I can do that, just send it to me in a PM. Might be easier if you keep the list yourself though
