ABC EXCLUSIVES QUALITY!!

[blown95sixer]

I have had this bumper a little over a year i had it test fitted and primed it while i waited for this car to go to the paint shop. I recently got my car all painted and back on July 10. I have only had it out of the garage and to a few car shows maybe 5 times. As of Aug 11 i had it at a car show as it set it the sun for a couple hours this bumper started to sink and sag in around 6 different spots. As i have posted below these are not small waves we are talking over a one inch dip in the largest one. I call the company because from my knowledge they are a reputable company. He agreed with me the product should not be doing that, but since it was over a year he would not warrant it. This is fine and all, but i had no clue there was a one year warranty. As a person building a show car i bought quality products that would last me years or near a lifetime. This product gave out after a month of actually being on the car. The owner claimed he could not help any customers or it would bankrupt him. So as i made the mistake of buying one of there products i am typing this to any of you who are thinking of purchasing one of their bumpers. If you want a product that is backed up by the company this is not the company for you. If you want a product that last a long while this may not be for you. I thank you for taking your time to read this and i hope that i helped some of you out.

man i would tell him i'm am a member of several popular mustang enthusiast websites and will do everything in my power to make sure no else buys from him.

 

[blown95sixer]

I did tell him this, but he did not take me seriously. He told me he would put me on his blacklist??? Like i will ever buy a product there again.

That's too bad man, I've dealt with them and the quality is pretty good.
I really don't think anything is a good as OE as far as body parts for a mustang.

I'll bet your front piece there was manufacutred by HardCoreStangs in CA. I tried a body kit from them that sucked.
nothing lined up, and the quality was pathetic.
I had to call and follow up with them for 2 months before they would only credit me 1/2 of waht I paid them.
that was MR. Bodykit - I'd recommend them to No One...

sorry that you had problems with the quality on that stuff.
you could always change the front cover if it get's bad.

I say Ya - get the word out...

Good luck man.

I agree with you 100% oem owns. My front is molded injected urethane from cruizenconcepts and it is awesome. Then i have roush side skirts and they are good, but this rear is not mold injected urethane its some weird spray on urethane. flexible, but deffintly not as sturdy. I believe i will be going with a oem saleen.

I've heard nothing but bad things about that company. This comes as no suprise to me.


Only companies I've seen that make decent body parts are:

Ford
Cervini
Harwood (sometimes)

Paul.

 

[Hellion94]

Harwood (to my knowledge) always makes quality peices. As does :

Kaenen
HO Fibertrends
Cervinis
Dugan
and obviously Ford MC

That sucks man..

At least your paint is sparkly... imp:

Yea i went for a ho fibertrends hood and other good parts, but i had not heard that much about abc. I will not let another person make a mistake, luckily i only bought a rear bumper from them. As for the paint thats another thing thats ticked me off. I have alot of money wrapped up in that paint job and now i have to blow more to get a bumper done.

 

[Dalamar]

agree with Hellion - Dugan is good.
and YA! - at least your paint is sparkley!!
looks cool close up in the metalic.

I meant to say Rear in my message, not front. I had the front and rear my last round, they both sucked.
It's the S2K kit right? , I know what you mean, it's really soft and bendy. like a mustang with limp dick.

I'd be ticked too. was pretty damn pissed when i lost 1300 bucks on my last round. not to mention all the time I spent fitting all that crap.
this is partly why I'm doing custome pieces on my car now, most of the body parts you can buy is just crap.

 

[blown95sixer]

Actually its the gtr bumper abc sells exclusively. You want to make two of those bumpers ;D. Yea its weird stuff its like a spray on thats slightly better then fiberglass.

 

[95KBGT]

honestly man get a lawyer

 

[Dalamar]

okay, so they actually make that part? it looks like the 2000 saleen bumper. they sell stuff they don't make as well, which is the problem most other body part companies have...

My front cover is from them.... hope it doesn't morph.

 

[TxCobrA98]

dang sorry to see what happend to you man. ill definitely stay clear of them.

i was like 2 clicks away from buying a s281 spoiler from abcexclusive but then i read how kaenen was the bomb diggity so i didn't buy it.. then i never got around to it.

 

[blown95sixer]

Agreed dalamar. Just dont let it set out in the sun for more then an hour lol. You are lucky you didnt txcobra

 

[Matt94GT]

wow man that is horrible, I hope for the best for ya.

 

[gabe8496]

I know the feeling. My 03 cobra style front bumper did the same on the sides. But I did have the y2k r bumper for over a year and no problems there.

A lot of people have great success with their products...I guess it just depends if you get one of the good ones from the batch.

 

[ripper]

Crap I got an ABC hood. I hope it doesn't start screwin up. Thanx for the heads up man.

 

[SlickGT]

Sorry Steveo, but that hood is ugly.
