its because Bic doesnt hold stock of the items they sell. An order comes through and the make that order from scratch. My trackday kit took over a month but ive had other stuff that was avaliable in stock on next day delivery.

I can respect that dude but for example... I would e.mail him monday after a week or so of waiting and he'd say lacquering them today, send them tomorrow and you will have them wednesday. I'll e.mail him again Friday night and he will say they're lacquered, sending them monday lol. The quality of the caps and blank is good just his time keeping let's him down abit imo

apologies if they needed fettling, but sometimes parts do, as not everything can be trial fitted to a vehicle, very unusual with something like this as they are scribed out to a template and then trimmed. I/we work very hard to give great customer service above anything, apologies if delays are sometimes incurred, but please bare in mine i am building Streamline Carbon as a business alongside and above my standard working days of my other businesses, sometimes i wish the 8th days would invent itself, 7 just isnt enough and I do my best to keep people informed, but am sometimes too busy actually completing orders as oppose to sending update emails all the time. I hope the delays you have received havent shuuned any future orders you may make with us, I will be sure to offer you something in addition to your next order to compensate.
thanks
Bic
ps, car looks great, and doorcards look pretty bling too lol

Thanks for taking the time to reply Bic. I can understand you're a busy person, running a business is never easy.
You're e.mails back were actually pretty damn quick. Never known a business to be replying to my e.mail's at 9pm almost in a conversation-like way lol.
The doorcard's are good quality and tbf they were only 5mm or so out, but was just enough to mean i had to move the handle's forwards and upwards slightly.
Again, thanks for taking the time to reply and thanks for the compliment

You know that your car doesnt have to be stripped out to do track days right?

Very true. Same as you don't have to do trackdays to strip your car out. I'm unsure if i will see any track action yet, just making my car how i want it (more fun for me to drive).
Cheers for the compliment's though folks.

Cheers dude. I fitted a new Map sensor yesterday hoping it would cure it's flat spot (didn't though) and new heater knob. Then gave it a quick wash.
Then went to Toyah's swapped plates over (will get pic's of her's soon), fitted her a rear heated screen switch and gave it a quick wash.
Tried to fit her stereo too but the amp is dead i think and none of the speaker's were working. So just going to get rid of the amp i think.

Type Craig's Plates into Google pal. I didn't actually buy these plates, they came off Toyah's. But she's got the same style plate's but with her personal reg and that's where i got them from for her.
