Now for the bad news, everything worked and looked great so we started measuring the rest of the sets and checking for damage. This is where it went wrong. Almost every set we opened had minor to pretty extensive damage. The damage that was on each set had to have happened during shipping because it was fresh not painted black. In other words they were not shipped out like this or they would have had the primmer on them. Some of the skirts can be fixed with some minor body work, some will cost more to fix then the skirts themselves are worth. A shop would probably fix this with the same 3m adhesive they use to fix cracked bumpers, the stuff works and it would be an excellent fix, but why put the extra money into a process that should not have been needed in the first place.

From what JRI stated above, looks like most of us are not going to get undamaged skirts. I wonder what JRI plans are for the rest of us.

I don't understand why JRI doesn't get undamaged replacements from Dan. Or am I missing something here? Then when you get the undamaged replacements give them to us. Dan obviously cherry picked the undamaged ones and should forward those to us.

Sorry guys the size of the DOC is 52.5 MB we were going to create a link for members and then send out pms, but I have no way to get it to Rudy untill I see him tomorrow. IF anyone can think of a way to send something so large I am all ears. I tried to do it with filesanywhere.com but there max is 10 mb.

I know there is a way to compress stuff with winrar but it still says file size is 58.2 mb even when I make it a zip or rar file??

Did you compress it? What file format is it?


PM me, I could upload to a public folder. I have .mac and hotmail. Skydrive would work.

Anyone with a hotmail account gets a 25 GB Skydrive.


With public and password protected folders. Just create a hotmail account if need be.

secondly how are we going to get non damaged skirts? I thought they were all damaged and Dan isn't taking them back? Or am I mistaken.

Either way Since I came up with this entire thing with my photoshop and proposal I should get the first non damaged pair.

C'mon bhays and borian, lets fight. LOL
Would the sand in the eyes and kick to the shin trick be considered cheating? LOL

I got the email but it's also asking me for a password - maybe I just don't see it in the email? Kinda late here - if it's there I blame it on the late hour

DAMN I hope this doesn't only work for people with hotmail accounts.

I think that is the case, You will have to make an account, then go into your email click the link, when your login appears use your account info you just created and read the instructions.

If this is too much work,,,, which it is,,,, wait till tomorrow we will create a link

Or try something like this 4shared.com - free file sharing and storage

I waited a couple of months - so I will probably survive another night
