CALMINI Bumpers
« on: June 16, 2004, 04:11:00 AM »
Has anyone ordered the Calmini Bumpers ? I wanted to know just how many are still waiting for them. I have been bugging them and each time it's a different story, One time I called and they're telling me that they're at the powder coaters,  on another call they're just starting work on them and they will be at the powder coaters. Me I'm getting antsy driving around without bumpers...   >:( I am waiting for the front winch bumper and rear swing away bumper, and the rear truss.   :(

I've got mine - love 'em.  Probably got one of the first few production units of both the rear bumper, and the Anvil.

I would've gotten pissed a few months ago if I were in some of the situations that you guys are with Calmini... good product or not, 4-5+ months is not acceptable IMO.

That is freakin rediculous!! Absoulutely unacceptable, What excuse have they given you for the delay? I called them about two weeks ago and was going to order a t-case mount and 5.14-1 gears for my sammy build and was told the mounts aren't being made yet. I said thanks but no thanks to a "pre-order" and called Trail Tough, parts came to work on the "Brown Truck" four days later, wow!

Hmm, I was thinking about ordering a rear bumper with tire carrier. I'll just get one made now.

I had to wait a while on my 3" Lift Kit. But they told me that they were being made and it would take a while. It did, but it was definately worth the wait ;) Every thing else I have ordered from them has been shipped quick.
