Wow that sucks ass, Let me guess, now you're the one left to pick up the pieces?


That's why making sure your partnership isn't made with a less than reputable provider (just a general statement, as I have no idea whether or not you had done your homework on him before... maybe you did maybe you didn't maybe you did and he fed you some bs, who knows... aside from you anyways.)

In Driveway Labs defense, I know Carl personally, I have done some consulting on his products, and my car wears them proudly...he's a stand up guy. Whenever he's told me something, it happened, but he has had some other issues in his life, that have taken him from the fore front of DWL. Putting things in the hands of others, and counting on partners/suppliers can, and it appears did, bite him. I'd suggest giving him the opportunity to make it right, and he will.

Carl drove 2 hours, each way, to deliver a set of side splitters to me, when they accidentally got shipped to him, instead of me. That's pretty good customer service in my book.

I can absolutely tell you that he did not close up shop. Do you need his physical address?

You wouldn't be the only person I know of that he owes parts to.

Agreed. He is still slinging parts to S2000 guys and they keep waiting and gobbling up his shit. You see quotes like this "Yeah I waited 2 months and then I didn't get any hardware and waited another month and the quality is amazing. Thanks." I can't believe someone isn't making a better product and putting him out of business.

I take responsibilities for the failures that I can. What it means for you guys is that I'll be building dry carbon fiber with my own hands.

Everything ended up being delivered and the product is top notch. Apologies for calling out DWL, honestly this is mostly a WASP issue and I just went on a rant since there were communication issues.

I hope you're able to source your own splitters since I hear many people are being screwed by WASP with ridiculous wait times.

CSG + DWL = <3

Also, maybe we need a mod to help change titles so we don't have misleading info in the title saying that DWL sucks?

Just a thought, since DWL is being really up front and taking care of the issue.
