Tired of waiting!

So im in the same boat as a few others on here with waiting for powers to send out my 12 bar. Well word on the streets is they had trouble with there powder coater and are looking for a new one. So to me that means its gunna be about 8 years before I get my 12 bar. I need a 12 bar bad cuz im gettin better at rockin idle and I know the day is near where Im gunna hit the subfame and I rather not if I dont have to. So... im just gunna order a different 12 bar and when/if the Powers ever comes ill just sell it.

What should I go with? Whats good and will get to me fast? I hear SI is just as good as Powers. I also hear a 12 bar is a 12 bar and it doesnt really matter. Im also open to buying one off someone here if its in really good shape and they will ship it out ASAP. So help me out guys!!!

Powers always blames this "powder coater." I've heard that from every person that's having problems with them, so I don't think that's actually gonna get him anywhere

Little known fact...only wheelie gangsters scrape subframe.

From this we can conclude you are not in fact a wheelie gangster.

Re: Tired of waiting!

Yea, **** it. My uncle is a welder so ill talk to him. If not ill just wait. Im down to scrape subframe just not till I get a lil better. Thanks guys and **** Powers. They have offical lost my business. I have bought 3 things from them overall throughout the last 2 years, and if the 12 bar doesnt come in 3 weeks if you add up my wait time on the 3 items it will = 1 year... pretty sad.
