I went through alot of grief back in 2005 trying to get an aftermarket GTA spoiler from them. Not worth it IMO.

Re: Is this company in operation?
Looking for the vision kit? I bought it from them awhile ago. Not sure it fits into the 'vision' I have for my car anymore, and I've been thinking about selling it. Never been installed.

I have read many like this:
"I've heard some no so good things about the fitment of the parts these guys sell, but the idea is very cool!"

Re: Is this company in operation?
Personally I would not buy from him. When I worked at UPS, my guys had to repackage everything he brought in....so-so quality with lots of unfinished (rough) bits.
I also remember at times people waiting for their parts to be made. Seems he had "cash-flow" issues.

Re: Is this company in operation?
Update,
I sent many e-mails ( autumn 2010 ) ; showcars@idirect.com , but no reply.
Now I tried again, surprise, I get reply to e-mail:
"sorry, that one not available from supplier....we can custom build..."
Have anybody trade with this company / this year?
Is he trusted?
Reliability and quality control?
Thanks for all input!

Re: Is this company in operation?
I would NOT buy from Show cars, ever.
This company seems to have issues with getting parts out in a timely manner and the quality is poor.
I've been to several swap meets where they have had some of their product for sale, and was not in the least impressed by any of it.
The only way I would consider buying from them was AT a swap meet, that way I can see it before handing over the cash and have it right away, instead of waiting for it.
