It took them over 4 months (since July) to cut/stamp the URETHANE mud flaps. I guess it’s conceivable that it will take them another 4-8 months to get the METAL hardware made and packaged together (longer if they are anodized), and another 2 months to have them shipped (that's if they're shipped one/day).
Okay, now I’m worried!

This is crappy news 
WTF...is everyone within the company going to the SEMA show? It must be nice.
I am getting worried. They have potentially $4000 worth of mud flaps waiting to be shipped. With that many potential customers I would rush on getting them out the door (or at least a few) wouldn't you?
<-----my face while waiting
<-----my face if it snows by the time I get them

Here's my ***** - HE DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT IT. On November 1st, he said:
"Packing them up today...printing up all the shipping labels as well."
But mentioned nothing about leaving THE NEXT DAY!
As for "is everyone from the company going to the SEMA show?" . . . I don't think it's a huge operation. If this guy goes, it might be 50% of the staff...maybe more.
I hope Im wrong and everything already shipped. I just don't want to have him come back and say "well I left them for one of my guys to ship and they didn't do it" 'cause Ive heard that more then twice.

Is your word still good on your previous statement?

Well this is certainly annoying. After being on the list for months, "any day now" seems to have been wishful thinking. We've had our first snow here in Coplorado and the gravel on the roads is making terrible noises as it is kicked up on my car. I can't believe I paid for these based on the promise that they'd actually be shipped.

Problem is that rallyarmor told me the hardware was ready to go on Nov. 1st and that i'd have to pack everything up...I printed all the labels and have everything ready to go...but the bushings haven't arrived for some reason. I was ready to get these things out on the 1st, but apparently the guy who cuts the bushings didn't come through and now we're stuck with flaps, hardware, and no bushings! 
I'm just the guy who sells these things...I don't make them and am not in charge of manufacturing them. I will make sure that everyones shipments go out, but Rallyarmor needs to get these bushings to me asap!
