I got nothing more from Rick since the pics and update I posted.
So please feel free to e-mail him guys to get some info (And post it here). not sure if he is tired of seeing me e-mails in his inbox honestly. I honestly have no idea what else he has going on in his life (is he married/kids/crazy job/sick family members/sick himself?) so I can not say why this is taking so long. I respect his privacy so I'm not harassing him to tell me why it's taking so long for them to be built/shipped but yes hopefully he will get these perfected soon and mailed out. The catch to making a new part is the time it takes to make the mold perfect, and I KNOW you're all "suffering" (patiently waiting) because he has to make the mold first but I have never molded anything in my life so I have no idea how hard/long of a procedure it is and I also know you guys want nothing less than OE quality.

Yeah I kinda am thinking to myself if we don't hassle the man the quality might be better? Lol.
But if it gets past labor day with no result or update I'm probably going to be a little annoyed by then. With this much time I literally expect nothing less than perfect quality and included stainless steel hardware lol.

ok latest update from Rick:
"So here is the tool (to make the skid plate) that had to be stretched and the metal drilled into mold so when the polyurethane mold cures or dries it doesn't shrink. I have a little more work then will make. the picture is how the inside of the part will look like. I just need to flip the mold and clean the front side and start producing!! It will be spot on!!" So please be patient still. PS: the actual skid plate at the bottom of the pic is my O.E. plate (TMV's old plate).

AWESOME, Mike and Rick coming through again, I never doubt it bc this guy has such a good E39 rep that it will be perfection.

Thaks RB. but its really ALLLL Rick (Slimmbones). I'm more of just a middle man (just not actually making money off this haha).
I just LOVE fiddling with/building things or being a part of the reason something is built. Just ask my wife (it drives her nuts mostly hahaha.)
