Email with phone #'s sent also.

Thanks and glad I drifted by to check the progress of this this morning. Been a while since I have had time to do such.

David Heinke

Has anybody who ordered in september received theirs? Been 7.5 weeks now.......

Hi Ryan,

I have already started the German Post looking for it. I will have another set of scoops here on Monday and I'll send them out to you. Then I'll wait and see what the Post says. Dowdian hasn't received his either.


edit: I am very sorry about the problems. This is the 3rd set in the last 2 months that haven't got though on time.

[This message has been edited by Fiero1Fan (edited 11-02-2006).]

It's alright, international mailing sucks, I've learned that through experience

When did Dowdian order his?

What is the package size/weight? If it was lost forever, I'd like to look into getting some kind of tracking for the next one. Fedex/DHL/UPS/EMS or what have you. But obviously if it costs $300 to ship by those methods..... ehh...

[This message has been edited by ryan.hess (edited 11-02-2006).]

I have 2 sets on the way to Dowdian and the second one was per receipt. Nothing yet. I even have USPS tracking numbers for them but no luck finding them. DHL says they were delivered but have no proof sooooooo............

Yours I am waiting on a reply from DHL. DHL is the international transporter for the German Post.
I'll see what it costs to ship the second box per UPS.

DHL should have tracking numbers..... whether they can find them or not........

Yes they should thats why I am expecting some kind of reply from them on where the things are.

Just checking to see you got my email with my phone #'s for the delivery of the 360 rear.

Also, any idea on an approximate of when the 355 front will ship?

Thanks much for all your effort on this. You have truly been a A+ seller in every aspect of this.

David

E-Mail received and returned.

As for the good f355 noses I have 2 people right now working on making a better mold for them.

Does anyone have a pix of the rear bubmper on a notchback. Thanks

Sorry, I don't have a pic of the f360 rear fascia on a Notchback.

You could ask someone like tuner2m4 to do a photoshop of it for you so you could get an idea of what it would look like.

Got a call from the shipping company - they're here! Now just have to deal with customs.

FANTASTIC!!! 1st one!
Customs was one thing I couldn't fix from this end.

Yep, just got the call yesterday and cleared it through customs today (the 360 rear). Cost was $75 plus duties to have someone else clear it through customs for me, but it should be heading my way now from chicago so I would expect a week or two at most for getting the rear here.... YEAH. Now I just need to get done with harvest so I can fix my engine and get the car to the body shop to have that nifty rear put on. Will post pictures once it arrives though.

Thanks once again for making this possible. Shipping took less time than I expected it to. Can't wait now for the 355 front to head out also.

Been great doing business with you.

Sincerely

David Heinke

Thanks David!! We have all worked really hard to get this done. It took a lot of time and patience, on your part, but it has worked out. The shipping per Transport company has worked really well. I'm going to find out if they will take the smaller boxes I have also. It seems to be even faster than using the Post Office system.

Timo:

The piece arrived today. It looks very nice. Lights also. Thanks for all the efforts again!!


It was shiped via air-frieght from frankfurt though. Not sure about the boat thing.

quote Originally posted by Fiero1F;an: The pieces are on the boat!! I know that for a fact!! I haven't received the documents yet with the individual shipping numbers. I should be getting them any day now so I can post the individual package shipping numbers for you.

Thanks again Timo.

That's news to me. I thought they went out per boat!! Oh well, most importantly they got there in one piece. Does it say which company handled the Air-Freight?

BTW I have my website up and running.....check it out and let me know what you think.

www.fieros.eu

Custom Air. They arrived on 10/26. I think it took longer to get from LAX to Orange county ,than from Frankfurt to the U.S.

again, I'm really very pleased with the facia. It will look really quite nice when its completed.

BTW: The web site looks very nice. and in English too!

[This message has been edited by MaxQ (edited 11-07-2006).]

Yeah, mine had an airfreight # attached also, which probably explains the quick shipping time. Still haven't found any front turn signals that would work with the 355 front. Before you ship my 355 front, if I haven't found them by then, I will order a set of the 355 turn signals (ford scorpio?) along with them.

The websight you listed didn't work for me, will try again later with some of my firewalls off and see if that helps.
Tried it again and it worked this time. Looks good

Yep a 95 Ford Scorpio. Should be able to get them straight from Ford. Just let me know what you want to do.

Thanks,

Timo

$29.00

That was cheap. One guy pays $75 the next $29. I don't understand..............
The same package coming my way would cost me at least $200. The Germans take custom fees on both the value of the item PLUS the shipping costs at 19%!!!

here it was 2.5% of value of merchandise plus $9 customs handling fee. Not so bad I guess.

Timo, do you have a size/weight for the package?

PM sent.

Tick-tock, tick-tock, the wheels of customs grind so slowly.

Z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z........

Paid $29 customs fee. $75 for a person to sign out of customs for me since I could not be in Chicago to do such. If your customs office is closer than mine was, you would not have to do the $75 fee. Since that was cheaper than me going to Chicago...... I payed it and happily to get it on its way

I will check with my larger Ford dealer next week on the Scorpio lights. Local place never heard of a Scorpio and wouldn't take the time to look it up (yea for living around small towns).

Now I just have to explain to the S-O about why I spent over a grand for a bumper (part of the customs run a round required some faxes which had to go through my girlfriends work (no fax at my house)). She is so not gonna be happy that I have another one coming in the future also ( "so where is the Rolex YachtMaster you promised me", "since you have money to waste on a $1000 bumper for your POS car which is worth maybe a couple of grand (she has no appreciation for this obsession of mine, she drives an SLK320 which gets half the looks my little POS Fiero does (which truly ticks her off, which I have to laugh at), but neither here nor there), you can atleast buy me the watch you have been promising me for the last year"). (sigh), what we do for women........

Oh well, happy stuff, the 360 rear is in route.

YOU have an obsession? Tell me, how many shoes does she have?

Oh it ain't the shoes with her, it is the clothes. She has a three bedroom house. Get this. Two of the bedrooms she has converted into closets for her clothes. "but it is for work and you want me to look good for you don't you"...... yeah, the work thing I can kinda semi buy. kinda. as for the looking good for me..... a nice sheen of shower water is all I ever want to see her clothed in.

My wife hasn't realized yet I have spent over $2500 on fiberglass "crap" for that "s****y" car . She'll focus on it when the freight truck delivers some big boxes. It won't be pretty, me trying to enjoy opening the boxes of my new stuff while she rips me about my total waste of resources. Meanwhile, she embarked on a remodel of our house costing enough for me to buy a Ferrari, an airplane, a boat and still have enough money left over for a Fiero or two. There is no justice.

During the remodel (still going on), my wife expanded her closet, already the size of a small bedroom, substantially. My closet, a typical small closet with sliding doors (8' X 24"), had two feet added to it. She said there just wasn't enough room to give me any more.

And yet both of them probably will still stand in front of the open closet and announce that they have nothing to wear. lol

It's even worse than that. Over the years, I have definitively established that she only regularly wears about 15% of her total clothing. I don't even recognize the other stuff! And she always buys something new for a special event. Can't be seen in last years rags.

Are we off-topic yet?

I believe we are. Let's let Timo have his thread back.

And indeed, back on topic we go. Just got my 360 rear today. Arrived unharmed. Now for an honest opinion (and I haven't tried to fit it yet so I will hold opinion on that till I get the chance).

Quality of work done. Solid 9 out of 10. Gonna need some finishing here and there, but over all, pretty darn good.

Design. 8.5 out of 10. The rear i ordered had vents placed in the side and the vents were not real symetrical. But, it is going to take me probably all of 1/2 hour to fix that (and I am not real handy with body work).

Would I purchase it again if I could do it over?

100% yes.

Thanks Timo for making this an option to us in the United States.

I will post pictures on Sunday when I get a chance.

Timo was great dealing with in every aspect and I would completely recommend him to anyone contemplating a purchase of one of his items.

Can't wait now for the 355 front.

Fantastic!! I sure hope everyone else gets theirs soon also.
