You guys need to work on your online etiquette. No one has mentioned your company publicly but since you're opening Pandora's box...

For your sake, and since I truly do support American companies, and ultimately want to see you guys succeed and produce a great product, let me suffice to say that i'm giving your company an opportunity to make improvements with my time being spent which btw, i'm not getting any compensation for nor do I expect any. I was hoping to deal with this quickly but it looks like i'm in for the long haul. FUN.. yay for me.............

I challenge you to look back and read my post history and you tell me if any blatant finger pointing has occured. Take a chill pill buddy. Have some pride in representing your company and help make it right to folks who are unhappy after spending ~$2k on your product.

This is not my first rodeo... but I certainly don't enjoy the ride and frankly, don't have extra idle time for it!
It seemed you were trying to make people second guess Eibach in the review thread. Why don't you just speak your mind instead of being passive about it?

Because I want people to be HONEST. For Christ sake is that too much to ask? And asides from what Jackson is implying i'm not trying to publicly bash anyone let alone a California company that helps my local economy. The bigger picture is to build the best possible product available for the $. Who wins by me bashing anything? Probably no one but you guys with good drama to read with lots of popcorn.

But now that it's out there...

Maybe I misinterpreted your response to TAP Auto.

It's not a maybe. You did. I was thinking that if TAP Auto was willing to go out and put their reputation on the line like that then perhaps I should give Eibach the benefit of the doubt.

My honest review? As much as I wanted to forget about this and move on (because some of us don't live our lives on forums all day) you keep dragging this into the mud. It's funny.. normally that's a trait befitting of a consumer not a manufacturer, hell.. you're not even a vendor/distributor which is what I would expect on here.

If you prefer to pull up other threads with other misrepresented quotes trying to paint your version of a picture of me or what you think i'm about then let's do it properly in an Eibach Multi-Pro R1 thread and not monkey up this poor guy's thread that had nothing to do with the Eibach Multi Pro R1s to begin with.

Oh, and for the search engines. Eibach Multi Pro R1.

I do not appreciate what you're doing here Jackson.

So many facepalms it's making my head spin.

For my R2m I am having an issue. Not sure if it's user related or what but Jackson is helping me get in contact with the right people, even if they take a long time to respond. IMO I can understand they aren't some huge corporation so it's expected.

I'm glad you're enjoying your suspension, Captain.

I'm sorry if my review was too fanboi, but I love mine too.
