Default dope tow hooks! front and/or rear

lol ever since i found jdmcarboy i just cant get enough of finding new stuff to buy (dammit debit card, why must you be so easy?!)


but anyway i found these datum1 front and rear tow hooks that come in black, blue, red, green, or silver... havnt seen these bad girls in awhile and felt like it was a good find so heres the link

front tow hook
http://www.jdmcarboy.com/index...=1164

rear tow hook
http://www.jdmcarboy.com/index...=1163


im definitely getting me a red one for my red del sol lol... hmm... i kinda like black tho.. because red colored metals always end up looking pink when i get them in the mail and i go wtf is this?!

IMO if they're not gonna get used, don't waste your money on that ****.

Nice Bennen knockoffs.

I wouldn't buy them, especially not from JDMCarboy ... unless you're picking them up. They have a bad track record of not shipping out products and keeping your money.

thats not what i heard, but **** happens i guess... i mean most the time i goto their site i see like 60 people online (they have like a lil visitors online counter thing) and i couldnt imagine that a business could still be operating and getting customers if that was the scenario... i mean they've been around for how long now?

i dunno, when i picked up my front lip from them the owner seemed very nice and not shady at all... i actually asked him about all the bad stuff i hear and he was more then willing to tell me all about it... it was just some bogus stuff about charge backs and scams, theres alot of other shade-***** you need to look out for! but i'd trust with my money even if i was getting shipped

(shoot, maybe ill even try it with these tow hooks, its not like he knows my full name and address lol) ill let you guys know what happens if everyone is really that scared of getting something shipped from them... i mean they did start offering online ordering recently, id imagine that makes doing business like 200 times easier

you're obviously determined to order from them. do so and report your experience. maybe they have changed their ways. nobody cares. it's your money.

lol ok buddy you're right... i only make web sites for a living and setup forums like this check out http://www.hacktherazr.com -- all me

whatever guys you can talk your **** about them, its all good... ive had no problems so i cant complain, and although it sucks for that guy to have a 'rep like this, obviously theres gotta be alot of happy customers otherwise things like rent would probably become an issue

so lots of peoples opinion on honda-tech hasnt ruined their business, but all i know is for me, i liked their selection, i liked their customer service, and i will definitely be doing business with them again soon....


EDIT: yah ill order some stuff for shipping and ill let you guys know how it went,..

1) the more you speak, the more i believe you have a hand in their business.

2) the creation of websites is your bread and butter, aye?

the website has a horrible layout and a even worse presentation.

forums like this? yeah, they're preset models. same with vbulletin, phpbb, and invision board. simple.

you have a google powered search engine.

your server information
NS.TIORA.NET 209.246.232.131
NS2.TIORA.NET 209.246.232.132

are those your direct servers? come on.

@ you thinking you know about websites.

a "visitor counter" is not accurate at all.. you should know that, Mr. Computer.

id rather buy the bennen ones new since they are cheaper.. people around my area sell them.. or just get those on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWD1V

new and cheaper but uhhhh if u ordered them already u wasted money for nothing.
p.s. i really could dont care if u get scammed or if the guy lags or what not sending ur stuff out, all i know is i would pick my stuff up in person or use ebay where feedback is important.

ive gone on 2 seperate occasions and picked up a carbon fiber hood and a urethane front lip.. no problems, nothing but good customer service...

im gonna order something via their web site now for shipping and see if the negative feedback lives up to the hype

Why not go ask these "heavy weights" if you should spend money on worthless things that will never be used all. Just a thought... IMO.
