Awww man, outstanding!
I'd checked earlier today and it was still in the same status it had been in since March. I guess the other steps were quicker than that one.
Funny thing is that was slow for them it seems! LOL
Damn, I ordered some overlays from Badgeskins as well.
Badgeskins. Oh man.
Been more than 4 weeks for me now. Sent them an email 9 days ago, got a tracking # 5 days ago - doesn't appear they even shipped it yet, just gave me a tracking # for the hell of it...
Just received back an email from badgeskins. They’re claiming they’ll ship my order out next week. Hopefully y’all get an update on your orders soon too.
Since seeing these comments I sent an email to canel my order. got this back:
Actually seems like a good hack to get your order quicker. Maybe.
Looking forward to seeing them installed as well.Okay, cleaning things up first and realized my 3M Adhesive Remover is dried up, so off to get some more.

But these look good, rears require tape to the inside of the bumper skin, they provide an adhesive accelerant. Fronts just mount directly with stock hardware.

Would love to see some pictures of the car with all the bits and bobs removed. I've been considering doing the same.Okay, cleaning things up first and realized my 3M Adhesive Remover is dried up, so off to get some more.

Well, that's kind of upsetting to hear about the fitment of it all. I would have expected it to be tight with no mods needed to it. Just a thought, but you might want to think about providing them some feedback of your findings, since these are not cheap.Okay, they're on and I'm reasonably happy. Coverage is excellent, from a purely functional standpoint, 100%. The rears glue on, you use an accelerant and just stick them on. Not my favorite method as if I need a new bumper skin, I'll need new to knock these off and apply new tape. The fronts bolt onto existing hardware for the fender liners and this is where things aren't ideal. They use one upper screw and the lower one that goes into the running board. My issue is that ideally I'd prefer they tucked between the liner and the car body, but that lower mount requires you to run them behind the liner and the plug that fits into the running board. So they don't fit flush as is, i"ve debated applying some tape to the mid point to close the gap, but I think I'll leave it in the sun for a few days to see if they mount up a little better.
My initial plan was to remove the lower cover over the front of the running board, but I realized that it has the actual receiver for the lowest screw, so I'd have to rig some sort of internal plug to hold that screw tight and there's an obvious issue about wind/water egress into the running boards if you did jettison things. Terrible shots that don't actually show the front coverage (but it's perfect for my setup) and rear nearly out of frame. It's hard to believe I had a photography scholarship.

I will. It’s not really their fault though, the lower mount is stupid and once I started looking at it, I realized it was going to cause issues.
Well, I feel like it would be their fault. When they create these flaps for the makes and models of cars they have them available for, I would think they would have the models of cars provided to them, or measurements from whomever or wherever to test on for perfect design and fitment. I'm a little upset I bought them now.
