I havent ordered anything from them in over 10 years, I remember though that all the "drop ship" stuff (airbags arent usually stocked, they just send the order to the airbag maker and they fulfill the order) showed up a good week and a half before the fabbed stuff.
this is just my experience, I hope I am just talking out loud and your stuff is on the way. I dont think they take the money till its ready to build so maybe that is a good sign.

i hope your right, im gonna keep my fingers crossed, want to keep this project moving along.

He's a good dude though maybe try contacting on Instagram

great minds think alike, i did add him on instagram and sent him a message tonight, wait to see if he replys.

I ordered from them 7 or 8 years ago and the parts came in pretty quickly.
