Hi guys,
Paula here from Finish Line
I'm not sure if I'm sad or excited as I write this so I'm going to keep it short. I have decided that it is time for me to slow way down and downsize much of my inventory, warehousing, etc. You guys all know that Enzo and I built this business up from 1996 and I believe we were the first vendors on any of the banners, etc. and were so excited to be involved all the years with the customers and manufacturers. All of you.
I have lots and lots of inventory but I made this decision pretty quickly and once I did I feel at peace. I did have time just yesterday and the day before to call ahead of time and let a couple of the manufacturers know my plans and for those I haven't reached I'm sorry. I did leave lots of messages.
Starting tomorrow, well actually, starting today even if you didn't know it we are selling everything at 50% off for the remainder of many of the items. On a lot of them I won't order again so now is the time if you like them and this is the price if you like them.
If you had clear fender guards on order we have given back credits to all as I couldn't wait any longer for the deliveries. I am caught up with everything.
We only have a small amount of louvers but we do have another 250 pair arriving and they will be sold at retail either with Finish Line or another vendor so don't worry if you can't get any in this batch.
We have sold out of the Talbot MR 400 bullet mirrors and you can now order those from Branda Performance and they will be the distributor for them. In an email tomorrow I will give the link for anyone that doesn't know it.
We will try to disable the items off the website as we go but we may get more orders than we have time and merchandise to fill so if you are paypal please don't worry as you will be refunded. You all know our reputation by now.
If you want to pre-order louvers after the last 8 pair and 4 black powder coated ones are gone you can do so by a separate order and we will put aside for whomever will be selling. Nothing will be charged unless it goes out but new louvers will be at retail price. Please don't use paypal after those are turned off tomorrow. I'm not sure how that comes aross the website but perhaps after they are turned off you can email or call and we will pre-order.
Also I am out of the MR 300 raydot brushed aluminum but have another 500 coming that will be sold at retail price with Finish Line or another vendor but will have to work those out as retail. So please don't order them with the 50% off special. Send an email or a message on the bottom of any of your orders.
I do have a small quantity of the MR 305 convex brushed aluminium raydot mirrors but I believe that Custom Cars has many of the MR 305 in stock as well.
I'll update you guys as we go along and all my best.
I am so grateful to all the individual vendors that I have met through the sites and will refer overflows to them of their items.
My amazing web designer, Patrick and his wife Catherine, from Not Maurice will adjust the carts sometime tonight so everything will automatically deduct 50% but even if you order before them I will honor it but not through paypal as it would take all day to do refunds alone. They are doing this on the spot for me.
I miss Enzo very much and he loved Finish Line so much but I know he would want me to slow down too. Well done, Enzo and Cobra Community for your faith in us all these years. Once I get a little lower in merchandise and decide where we want to go from here I will let you know.
Happy Times and thank you.
Please be patient with emails and calls over the next week.
