Default bBist experience

Did a search, didn't find anything regarding experiences with bBist. So on with my experience. Ordered my F5 intake from Steve on friday, he said it would ship on monday (UPS ground). Got home from work today (tuesday) and my intake was waiting for me. Sevice couldn't have been better. It's probably the fastest shippment I've ever had, even counting 2nd day air shipments.

Please send us images of the area you are talking about. You might be looking at a seam/edge where the top and bottom meet. There will be scratch marks on the seams of any hood no matter who the manufacturer is.

Ups has a scuba-divng-robot. It is so heavy that it actually walks the floor of the ocean, from the departure point in CA all the way to the islands.....True story



















Yea, it doesnt make any sense to me either.

Sorry about the wait, there's a world wide carbon fiber shortage. We're trying to get the raw carbon fiber material right now and we're paying through the nose just for little quanitites. We have your info on file so we'll call you as soon as we come close.

Saw the pics and the scratch/sand marks are normal due to the manufacturing process. The crack/ fracture however, does not look normal. That is something that definitely was not due to manufacturing. May have been damaged from shipping.

Yeah since I bought my first bBist product to the point when I joined his team, never had a problem. I pretty much have everything in my car bBist and no complaints. I've known Steve personally for a really long time. So........... just because ups dropped a box at your door step doesnt mean bBist broke it.
