    New Tooling being set up for a run,, If the samples are exceptable,,, the Un-chromed will be made and sent to RPS for Imediate release. The Chrome parts will be made and checked for quality,, if excepted they will be put on the market with in 2 or 3 days after,, So if any one thinks they will be buying a set of these in the next 6 months please send your E-mails to RPS,, so we can produce enough for all who need them,, The next time we can schedual for production of them is late August,, this is for the chrome boomerangs,,,:Handshake

    Also to keep the cost of shipping down,, We are working with persons that have shown interest in becoming Autherised dealers in diferant states. Some might just be a few hours away for pick up, but even the UPS will be cheaper and allot faster if its just going a few hundred miles.
    We are doing our best to get every one the parts they need,, at a reasonable price,, So please send your Idea's,, help us make it easy to get the parts to you.:Handshake

    OK,,,, here is the Pooop on the Boomerangs,,,, I went and watched them being made yesterday,, I was very happy that the project is moving forward,, I am not 100% happy with them just yet,,, they told me they are ready,,,, and I pointed out a few things that just dont fly with me,,, and it is not going to be a major issue for the tooling to be made better,,, There is 2 diferant tools that are mounted side by side,, The Driver side Boomerang is perfect,, The passenger side is not where I expect it to be,,, So just the one tool is what we are concerned about,, They tell me they should be ready to try again Feb 5 08, So keep your fingers crossed,,, we are almost there,, If I am going to expect all of you to purchase these parts,,, Please have faith,, They are going to be as perfect as we can get them,,, When you get a part from us,, The reputation of an Awesome parts is what we want to hear,,, You knowing what we will bring out was done rite,,:Handshake

    We are very very close rite now on the Boomerangs,,, Soon I Promiss,,



    Thank You

    Stick to your guns on the tooling. Once you make the final payment and sign off on it...getting revisions will cost 10X more money, takes 5X as long, and be twice the headache than it would have been if you would have had it done before the final polish and chrome.

    Old saying for tooling...
    Slow=Smooth
    Smooth=Fast

    Just Curious .... Has Ford Legal bugged you yet about selling unauthorized Ford parts? They seem to be cracking down on everything else ...

    We actually talk to Ford before we procede in production,, Of any parts,, We actually Follow the guidelines set by Ford Licensing,, So to answer your question,, Nope no problems:thumbs2:,,, Ford is not as bad to deal with,, They just want a heads up,,, and they have never given us any issue's for answers for questions we have asked them,, I can tell you that making anything with a Ford Logo on it ya better have permision,, any part that has like the steerhead ya better have permision as well,,, anything with the Name,, Logo's,,, and or any ford part Numbers,, Ya better be talking to Ford before ya run the parts,,:Handshake
