There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I ordered mine on April 10th and they're not here yet. I emailed SFB this week and their response was the floorboards have been manufactured and are currently at the anodizer company. They said the boards should be done today and shipped Monday.
ray:Hopefully yours were in the same production run.

Bummer man....
What's up with companies selling items that are not READY TO SHIP?
Not cool.
Well, it's a 100% guarantee that when I open my mouth... the delivery notice was in the mailbox yesterday PM, and they're in the car today.
So... some history:
I did get with them on the phone 2 weeks ago, after 2 weeks of trying. They're a small shop. They do production runs, then setup for other runs. I'm sure they don't have the ability to warehouse a lot of stock. Probably can't afford to.
So, maybe I'd cut them some slack (wait, I did) on that end. It just looks bad when:
- They charge your card immediately.
(Further my CC company calls me and suspects it's fraud!)
- Don't answer the phone, don't return calls.
- Can't make promised deliveries.
Maybe I was the first guy in the line, so I'm waiting the longest. But order now, or you'll be the first guy in the next line.

Well mine got hung up in customs for a long time before i received mine....was not real happy with the lack of info when i bought.....had to pay a customs fee which i was never told about.....plus it took a long time because it was hung up in customs.....which i also was not warned that it could happen....ive never bought anything from out of the country so i didnt know what to expect...a simple explanation when i bought them would have been nice BEFORE i had to get the cia to track them down:gaah:
When I ordered them they told me that it would be a while before they came.
When I inquired about when to expect them after waiting for a couple of weeks they said that they were waiting for the anodizing which they don't do and it would be a couple of more weeks as anodizer was backed up with other jobs.
Waited two more weeks and asked again and they said they were at the anodizer.
When I got back from visiting kids and grandkids in FL there they were!
Installed this morning in about 5min/side.
Frankly, I could do without the shiney parts and swirlys and just have them anodize them all in black.........but that's they way they are.
If you order them unanodized I expect that you'd get them faster. And if you have a local anodizer then you could have them in any color you like.
Now for a test ride!

Kinda getting in on the conversation late but have a question that has kept me from ordering them.
Saw Doc's floorboard and footpeg setup. Function and form blended together beautifully. Would blend right into Spydee's look.
The issue is, didn't see any rubber on them. I heard all metal handgrips get slippery in the rain. Wondering what the traction on these floorboards are when wet?

Haven't ridden in the rain with them but they are milled with sharp edges on the floorboards and there are small pins on the pegs that will hold your shoes. I think that they'll be OK in the wet.
