Rich, I sent the email with the shipping info. Also I asked about an upgrade to the metallic finish 2 din panel, but keeping the black grain HVAC panel. Can you email or PM me the details? Thanks
Also, can you post the exact opening dimensions of the 2-Din panel. Thanks.

::UPDATES::
Thank you all for confirming your shipping information. Some updates needed to be made to my original spreadsheet, but it's all looking very good nevertheless.
My associate out in CA is prepping/painting our first production run of full-metallic as we speak. I'm furious at the fact that our manufacturer didn't get the un-grained bezels to him until thursday (yesterday), but as with everything else since the tooling/production phase started, it has been out of my hands.
I know everyone is quite anxious to receive their kits so I am going to trust my contractors judgement and give him the go-ahead to ship the first 25 full-metallic kits next week from CA. I've already received word that the first run of black-grained kits will not ship to me until 07/21; so once they come in they're immediately going out to their respective owners. Please remember that unlike their full-metallic counterparts, no prep/paint work is necessary.
As an FYI, i'm going to be away on business next week followed by a one week vacation with my fiance. I'll be back on the 21st. This shouldn't be a problem since my associate in CA will be shipping out metallic kits directly, while I will be back in time to ship out the remainder of the first GB the moment they arrive. I will have my laptop with me, so please don't hesitate to contact me, however excuse me in advance if I cannot reply immediately.
I cannot wait to finish this first GB. I ASSURE everyone that this project was, is, and will be worth the wait. However, these delays will not happen again following this production run.

You wouldn't be getting all the special packaging and treatment if it's coming from CA as my business is set up in NJ.
If you guys want to be a little more patient and give it a few more days, i'll ship it out from NJ the way it was originally intended to go and the way all other kits will be going.

is there anything missing that we would really want/need? I mean, ive taken my dash apart 150 times now, so I cant possibly need instructions..
Was there anything else in there? Im leaning towards CA shipment, for you too, just so we start getting pictures up soon and pumping the hell out of your product!

Are you that lazy to read back a page or two and find his latest update?
Pathetic.

Rich,
I'm willing to wait a few more days on the 2-din conversion kit with the special packaging and stuff. I did not wait all of this time to have anything rushed and maybe miss some pieces or instructions, and I sure don't want to recieve it scratched up or damaged. I will wait for you to inspect mine and send it out to me from NJ.
Thankyou again,
Derek
