I have the Source fronts in stock, and ship within the US. if you arrange all shipping, I will ship wherever you want.

I suppose this is off topic but I see a lot of shops changing platforms lately and we are doing the same thing, dont get me wrong I will still race hondas as they are my car of choice but most of these guys are not in it for the long haul so they want cheap stuff.....

Locash customer service ftw I wouldn't risk my money anywhere other than with joe when it comes to front ends because with him there is no risk.

Oh I know there isn't a ton of money in it for a lot of Honda shops, don't get me wrong some do very well. But if one place could make GOOD front ends with reliable service they would make a good bit of money because people are always wanting them and even people who have them will either wreck and damage theirs or change up just because they can.

I personally hardly ever work on Hondas because the market around here is over saturated and I'm not cutting my own throat just to make a sale.

One of our friends probably picked up the phone because we were busy. He was probably unaware that we are new dealers for Franks front ends. We are switching two of our race cars from Exospeed to Franks because they fit much better and it tucks our 10" wide wheels nicely!

We don't have them in stock but we can get one for you. We are in constant communication with Frank. He's a one man operation that's probably why he hasn't responded to your email.

It takes about two weeks to make a fiberglass front and a little over a month for carbon. It's well worth the wait!

I'll check with Frank tomorrow about shipping to Canada.

When you call our shop, ask for me, Rolando.

Thanks!

hey Rolando
i actually spoke with you when i called, you told me you didn't have any in stock and you sent me pic through email of a used one you have laying around.

probably would have taken it but it looks like there where cut outs made for the v-stack and exhaust that wouldn't work with my setup

if your able to get a front end and are willing to ship to Toronto Canada let me know

thanks

he assured me his front ends are not like the rest, there wont be any fitment issues.
him and i are in the process of figuring out the shipping if all goes well i will be buying it today

although i havent seen the parts first hand i feel 100% comfortable buying through him and would recommend anyone else looking, to get in contact with him as well

Franks is on point. They look great and fit great from what I've seen and they have a good rep in both industries. If I ever get another car upo and running and need a front, Franks will be it.

just a update to everyone in ontario looking to buy, i have put my order in with frank, seems like the only option for shipping (that wont cost a arm and a leg) is to get him to ship to buffalo and ill have to pick it up from a drop box across the border

the order is in, so now ill have to wait and see on the turn around time. shouldn't be more then a couple weeks.

im excited to see the final product in person.... i will post pics once its here.

for now tho, im playing the waiting game

Its a good thing you were able to make a decision to your situation.

I will lock it for now and when you have updated information I will then reopen it.
