would mean a great deal to me.
i know i'll probably get some flaming for this, but this will be so completely suitable for my swap.

Originally posted by F3BZ View Posti'd be surprised if roger even visits this site anymore after all the FMS bashing that's gone on over the years. i only have my own experience to judge him on but i bought almost every part he offered over a decade and am glad i did. sure, sometimes i got slow shipping or unanswered phone calls but i gave him the benefit of the doubt as being more of an enthusiast than a buisnessman. selling crap? many, many of the parts, especially for the suspension were genuine JDM GT-X pieces sourced from ford of japan and the molds (which i now own) were made from original GT-X parts he was able to accumulate. i doubt that FMS was rogers only income. i guessed he had a day job and maybe a single helper to take calls. ask bravekozak how fun it was to take and make an order,. deal with 4GREEN, recieve and distribute and get paid for a big order. and that from just a single supplier over a short time period. i talked to roger a month ago. he's still into festiva's but i doubt he'll ever be in the aftermarket parts again. and i have no plans to sell fiberglass body kits. don't want no Hate'n on me.Barbie Car - '90 L-plus_2nd Gen SOHC B6+rear turbo @ 8 psi

as for the molds. a lack of space, and a real lack of fiberglassin knowledge keeps me from doing anything with them right now. i'm not holding them hostage. i don't even know exactly why i bought them except roger was a persuasive salesman and i didn't want to see them just disappear. if the price is right, they're for sale. i'm actually surprised that there is a demand because i thought junspeed/Ernst have a superior product. i guess the shipping is a killer though.Last edited by F3BZ; 06-29-2013, 07:41 PM.

Originally posted by F3BZ View Postya they exist. they're in my basement. these are direct replacements for the festiva that FMS used to sell for about $800-900. GAB also made adjustable dmpers as an option for the GTX/GTA in the Japanese market. my sarcasm was to point out that FMS had some good festiva specific stuff for sale. i'm not an FMS fan boy. I just never had a real problem with him. but judging by the venom I've seen directed his way, some of you have. what I won't agree with though is that he sold commonly available parts at an unfair mark up. he went to JAPAN for gods sake to make some of his contacts.
