no harm in telling the truth, so here goes:
1) Got grp copies of the CSL Scheel seatmount covers from him. Garbage. NO effort to make good with better replacement.
2) Got black gelcoat CSL rear bumper, the gelcoat was horribly scratched up and marred. HIS response? "Just paint them black."
3) Roof hoop for CSL? Only finished on one side, and brackets for mounting were stamped out of 1/8" thick steel.
4) if you get fenders be sure to specify that they be laid glass and not sprayed/chopped glass. Laid ("hand laid") glass is strong and smooth. Chopped is weak, abrasive, and dangerous.
5) f.w.i.w. just talk with the guy and press for specific unambiguous descriptuions of what you'd like to buy and you'll probably be fineCarl Nelson at CNPR has anything you would want for your repro-parts needs that can be gotten elsewhere, and he'll at least accurately describe the part he's going to send you!
