I wasn't aware of the windshield protection product, so it wasn't too offensive to me. I wish the previous owners of my car had used it.

A little bit shameless commerce, though.

Actually I could care less . I only wish you would look at different ideas to save your windshield . I pay about $11 bux for the product and then heat shrink on mga coupe and mg windshields .The shrinking time is about 25 minutes . So I aint making money . Now when I put my product on grand-am.com cars which I am a sponsor then I make pure cash .The average cost of a new porsche window is about $600 bux and the 24 and 6 hr races take a toll on glass . My personnel vehicles that I have are triumph stag and spitfire , jag mk 2 ,midgets , mgb s and I am working on my mga coupe party sat jan 20 see link . What exactly is your problem . Please call me and maybe we can talk and get you straightened out 1-352-795-3456 . I have made the patterns for paint protection and windshields for MG s as service to all and the simple fact I have about 30 british cars I can make them . And hey if I make some money on the side no big deal I got enough . I am really proud of the work I do and what I have to offer . And believe me it aint like a train of MG people are coming to give me money , it seems weird you would attack someone who is trying to forward the brit car deal .Look for Mgs on xpel.com see if you find any . The Huper Optik tint is virtually invisable in Florida its hot and a tint helps the glass and is also a safety enhancement as it will stopflyingglass.com sorry I had to throw that in there :) My main business is auto salvage , window film and signs and towing , this is a hobby and I sure would like to see you face to face .

GT, I think this isn't the usual guy selling snake oil etc, and he's posted nicely before, so perhaps we can give him a break...

This BBS is certainly about letting people know about new and useful products.
But, it's not intended to shamelessly hawk your own products. I question the ethics of any business who does so.

I'm not sure if I agree with you, Dominic, about this guy posting nicely before. I have a clear memory about how he said he feels like hitting some of his customers on the head with a hammer or ax or something like that in a discussion about customer service. If it was something worthwhile, I'd look in the archives. Anyway, I'm with GT on this. If he's got something to sell, then pay for an ad, like the legitimate suppliers. Heck, he claims to have tons of money. Or at the very least limit himself to promoting his services in the classifieds section.

Just had a wonderful email from whipteachr. Text is below. I'll let you all decide what you think of him:-

Subject: quit beoing an ass

Derek , I admit it an axe to the forehead is sometimes exactly what the doctor ordered . I had my www.britishcarclub.net come and put my 60 mga coupe body on the chassis today . We had a great time partying and enjoying the fellowship . You on the other hand are calling me out . I am telling you are killing this british car deal with your old fartish attitude . Dont you want anybody to carry this on ? If I remember the part was $45 dollars and the guy was trashing the company ? HuH ? Maybe I dont get it . Maybe you will get it when you die your family ebays your car because you where such an ass about it . Enjoy your car you fool before you are 6 feet under . And please call me 1-352-302-2456 cell , maybe I aint gettin it ?

Karl


I'm sure his Club's very proud to have him as a member.

Derek,

I think you'll Yankees get too up tight in the cold of winter. Just forget it and let it pass. It's not worth involving any or your time or this forum.

Ignore them and they will go away. Keep personal feuds off the forum.
Jim Ferguson

That's absolutely what I plan to do, Jim.

Karl, I was trashing the company because they sold me trash and refused to refund my money. The amount wasn't important except that I feel lucky that it wasn't a high dollar item, and thus it was fairly cheap as far as learning experiences go. If you are ever in Alaska look me up sometime and we will discuss your idea of putting an ax in my forehead.
