I was bummed out about the power coating part. Some companies only care about money first and costumer satisfaction dead last. Always enjoy watching your videos.

@MrRanggong 8 месяцев назад

You should really have Danny teach you to weld. Its a skill that will serve you well on any project as a DIY person. Plus if you shoot some vids people can learn along with you. If people will watch you pick up a chicken they will definetely watch you learn to weld! With your enthusiasm you make everything fun.

My dear Faye, Yes, I enjoyed your video. I am a tech head and I do enjoy the technical points you make but I also adore you as the star of the video. So I feel your pain too. I am so so so sorry they took 6wks of your time and probably another 6wks more work to correct everyting. When they said they'd rip up the check, that was your reality check. The money was all that mattered to them. Communication may have been at fault, however; don't they know who you are? I'm more than certain you explained the circumstances, but that phrase was what they were all about. "Make The Sale" we'll take care of the fallout later. Ouch! Please try to stay positive and keep on it. I want to see the whole system work and the numbers and of course the final results. Always yours. ben/ michigan

@davebasey9863 Год назад

I feel your pain .I went to Harbor freight and bought one of their powder coating kits . I practice on several scrap pieces and found that if yow preheated the material first and make sure it’s thoroughly cleaned. It works really well. I had my wheels refurbished on my Volvo V 70 R got them back $500 later and it was horrible and gave me the same excuse we put the new guy on them. 😮

@michaelskinner896 Год назад

Delivered severely late with it being a half-assed job; there's absolutely no excuse for that. I would've been livid. You are very professional and showed an incredible amount of restraint describing how upset you are with the issue. It's unfortunate, but I wish there was a way for other people to know about how this outfit conducts their business. So sorry you had to go through all that, though it sounds as if you have a good plan. Looking forward to the next installment!

Thank you. I did tell my local friends so they wouldn't go there. It just doesn't make sense to blast them on an international platform when only a few local people would ever potentially go there. But that being said, be cautious in New Braunfels, TX! And I just think it's very un-classy to sh!t talk on the internet. The story had to be told, because it really does happen to everyone, but they don't need to be slaughtered, I don't think.

Hey Faye Hadley I understand being ticked off at a powder coater! I had this happened to me 25yrs ago. But you can over come this! I had a friend wet sand everything up to 1500 sandpaper! You can smooth it and get out those nubs. If not sand blast it off and do it again. There is a company in Texas called dustless blasting can get everything clean and not damage the parts. But try sanding it first 😊

I use rolloc disks and then sandblast it, but that scratches the hell out of everything and then good luck getting all the grit out. At least you found a creative solution! Keep up the great work!

@802Garage Год назад

OMG... You got absolutely ripped off by that powder coating shop. $500, over a month, and that's the quality you got? I would be furious. I can literally do better than that in my garage. I used to work in a powder coating factory. I'm so sorry. I can come up with multiple ways to hang that last part, but since I believe it takes crush washers, I would just tape over both sides, hammer lightly around the tape to cut it at the face edges, then poke a wire through the tape and hang it by the wire. This isn't complicated and missing plugs on those small bolt holes is also unacceptable. Anyways, excited for more 7M episodes as always!

@FayeHadley Год назад

YES EXACTLY!!! That's what I was thinking - I definitely don't want coating on the sealing surface, and I could use plugs to protect the inner section while being a perfect place to hang from. These folks are just lazy :(

@W0O0G Год назад

Fuel pulsation damper dampens the fuel pressure oscillations caused by the injectors opening and closing on a long fuel rail, not the the fuel pump, you can check this out for yourself once your up and running by blanking the damper port and logging fuel pressure, then connecting the damper back up, at certain rpms you’ll get resonance inside the rail, which is what drive the oscillations. As a side not, having rubber fuel lines on the pressure side does wonders for damping the oscillations as the entire fuel line acts as an accumulator (which is what the damper is). Happy building!

Just be careful going anywhere in New Braunfels Texas.

@grahamwright6813 Год назад

hi it's a show car why don't you get them done again you spent so many hours making it look perfect perfect

@FayeHadley Год назад

Yeah, I am going to fix them for sure. I ordered some powder that just got here today, I just didn't want to stop progress on getting her on the dyno. I will be removing the intake anyways, I will absolutely fix it.

Disappointing, but with art on it I think it’ll look great! Keep up the great work can’t wait to see the finished product!

Hi best luck

sorry

@wademiyataki9221 Год назад

Not professional. Even looked bad in the video. There’s no excuses. They didn’t prep the parts correctly, did not apply the power evenly, and no one seemed to inspect the parts after they pulled it out of the oven. Even if they put “the new guy” on the job, someone should have been supervising “the new guy” through the entire process. Sounds like they didn’t even try to make it right. If they don’t correct this, they won’t be in business long.

@FayeHadley Год назад

Right?! At least INSPECT the parts. They were still wrapped when I picked them up. They left them outside in a box for me to get in the middle of the day. They were "running errands" all day......

@wademiyataki9221 Год назад

OMG! Seriously??? Sounds like they just didn't want to be around when you came to pick up your stuff... Wow!

Faye please let us know who these powder coating company is because it’s not fair and especially cuz I live in Texas and I need to avoid them.

@FayeHadley Год назад

I don't think it's a classy move to sh!t talk on the internet. They are in New Braunfels, so just beware if you choose to get work done in that small town.

@espoca8478 Год назад

@@FayeHadley cool well avoid ! I hate that happened To you

@johnmbell4642 Год назад

Hey Faye, absolutely great work on laying that out love watching Danny Weld. Unbelievable with the powder coating can’t tell you how many videos I watched were powder coating has entered the picture and I’ve yet to see any problem it always over delivers that’s kind of the point of powder coating even something like an exhaust bracket it should be the nicest Exhaust bracket you’ve ever seen. very sorry that happened to you. I sure hope they refund your money. That’s the least they could do especially after you shared your story with them. looking forward to seeing the artwork and I’m sure it’s going to be OK. Have a great one as always.🐔🐔🐔👍

@FayeHadley Год назад

Thank you, John! And yes, isn't Danny just the best welder?! He never disappoints!! :))

Bummer, I know it's late now, but Chip at C4 Labs does show quality powder coating for future projects. Just a friendly heads up.

@AutoholicsAnonymous Год назад

I know you don’t want to, but you really should indicate their business name to protect other potential customers. Good businesses should be praised and bad businesses should be identified. Maybe they will take it as a message to correct their quality and performance

@FayeHadley Год назад

You're right - I have told my local friends. People who could potentially use them. But I didn't think that it would be very classy to sh!t talk them on an international platform. So many of my viewers don't even know that New Braunfels, TX exists let along have powder coating work done in that small town. But I did spread the word locally, and saved another supra owner who was about to go there!!!

@tgxperience Год назад

Utter sheeeat powder coating. It's not even the bad coating but the waste of frickin' time!!. OMG, I would be livid. Sorry Faye. :(

@knickebien1966 Год назад

0:58 is teflon tape a good idea for fuel systems? I remember reading that it wasn't, not even the "fuel resistant" type, but I could be wrong.

@FayeHadley Год назад

It is in the installation instructions per Aeromotive!!!!

Just found your channel. Can't believe I found another person who loves the mk3. I've owned 3 & did a 1j swap on one of them. Such an underrated chassis

@physics2817 11 месяцев назад

That was a Bummer…Topnotch shop would have stripped the parts and redone the work. The guys last reaction told me that’s the product his shop puts out. Darling, if I know your Spirit, the piece will look more Badass than if they did a premo job ♥️
