Tom and Phil, thanks for your responses. Tom, I can only guess what happened in your situation but my communication with him was flat-out strange and felt very "shady".
Phil, glad to hear the site is working for you now. I've spoken to the others that were having problems, but they can now utilize it fully as well.
Thanks for your interest in the 8 lug project guys. Val's ad for new 8 lugs is not going to stop me from producing them myself. My wife and I feel that if we bring a superior part to market and back it up with superior service, we should be OK. We just felt more betrayed than anything else and we'll have to have thicker skin than that to start our own business!
