Right! That’s why I love giving my money to companies that design and make custom, one-off parts and source most in the USA. I love how my one-off custom mono block forged wheels from unplugged say made in USA (etched right on the face of the wheel). The sway bars from unplugged, which are made and designed in USA, are going to complement my wheels well (USA info right in the product details page if you even looked?
).
Some of those other companies you’re referring to, beyond just the ones that rebrand alibaba items, make their production customers the beta testers... Let me tell you from first hand experience how it’s not cool when you get your product you preordered and they forgot to add parts to the package so they send a follow up shipment to all preorder customers a few days later (MPP), and/or they’ve never tried installing it on a AWD car so the install instructions become way more complicated and need to be updated after you receive item (MPP), and/or it actually interferes with autopilot and they send you the new product and text you every day asking for feedback (Bandit)... or the product just straight up isn’t compatible with your device when the marketing says otherwise unless you send it back (Jeda)... Note: MPP and Bandit have improved and quickly iterated. I‘ll buy and have bought from them again. Just note that what’s happening here is that UP isn’t just making you the beta tester by default.
Anyways I really like the unplugged company if that’s not apparent. And I think your comment implied that they’re just waiting for items abroad, which is not true.
It’s not hard to find the CEOs email if you really have some type of problem... but that should be like a last resort move... just call them during business hours and report back to the rest of us on this thread. Lol. I’m done with this thread and turning off email notifications for a while.
