    Anyone have any dealing with Unlimited Products out of Hesperia, CA? They seem to have a decent deal on a 3 piece Grabber Spoiler but want a total of $45 for shipping to Little Rock. I realize that some handling cost might be involved, but running it through my UPS and FEDEX accounts came up with about $23 and $17 (respectively).

    Type in Unlimited Products in the search box above. You'll read lots of comments about these people then you make your own decision. :(

    Good Choice!

    I'm honestly surprised that company is still in business actually. :slap: :banghead:

    A customer of ours bought one of thier hoods for his Chevy II. That thing would have been better used as a snow sled. Unlimited Crap is a better name for that company.

    The F rating pretty much says it all.

    Another company to stay away from is Showcars Bodyparts Unlimited in Ontario, Canada, They make fiberglass junk, they have no metal parts and fiberglass molds are held together with warped wooden braces, junk!

    I haven't got it in yet. Should arrive this week. As I said, I've got right at $100 in it since they had a 30% discount running on their website. I was willing to be the test case and will document all the pros and cons. Will probably send them the info as well. Any company should have the chance to improve their product with constructive feedback, how they respond to that feedback is how I'll ultimatley judge them.

    An unhappy customer will on average tell 6-8 people about their experience. The happy customer will tell 1 (if you're lucky).

    Good luck. But the fact that an unhappy customer tells only about 6-8 is not true anymore. Just take a look at what has happened with Unlimited Products just on this site alone. With the internet the unhappy customer now reaches hundreds or thousands of potential customers. And it stays on the net for good. :)
