So far I've had a bad experience with this whole exhaust thing. I should have just ordered it with you guys. I ordered it through my dealer about 2 months ago. TBR promised delivery on May 8th. Then that day came and went and it became May 18th. Then more delays came and they kept adding a week to it each time we called. So today I call my dealer and ask him what they said and he told me it will be another week. So I got pissed and told him that I know several people, all you guys, who ordered a month after me and are getting theirs already. He said that only people who ordered WAY before me are getting it and I said no, there was a group buy end of May and they're getting it already. So I tell him I just want to cancel the order. He says he'll try again. He calls me back and says they had one more left that was allocated for I don't know what and they will ship it to him tomorrow and he'll get it in a couple days or so. WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON???

MNDZA,
That's the reason I have never ordered aftermaket from a dealership. They don't regularly work close enough with manufacturers of aftermarket parts to be in "good standing" with them. For a manufacturer, it's much more trouble to try and get a single unit out to numerous dealerships than it is to send a bunch of systems to a retailer/distributor.
It sucks that you have been jerked around so much. If your dealership falls through, cancel your order and give Nate a call at new enough. Explain to him your situation and see if he would include an order for you at the same group buy price ($825 shipped). I'm sure he would be willing to work something out for you.
Good luck, bro.

So, what was the final price for the group buy? Curious in the event my wife decides on one for her new R. Thanks and GREAT JOB pulling off a group buy on a new product! :steve:
The price given to us was $825 shipped for the carbon fiber cans. That's almost $300 lower than MSRP!
IMPORTANT!!
For those that got in on the group buy, Nate has only heard from half of us. If he does not hear from the others (lifuzz, dgslover and Nautical05), the pipes go into his inventory and it becomes first come first serve. Don't let me down guys! I organized this so we could be the first to roll with this system.
Get on it!!

If so, I will install tomorrow night, and have a vid up that night or sunday, I haven't done a vid online before, so I guess I'll just use Youtube since I have a account.
