Thinking through it, I definitely agree with your concerns. I believe these are the last two pieces to complete. Monday was going to be reassembly day. How would you go about pulling the plug at this point? Reputationally these guys have been solid and my past experience (prior to this mishap) had been solid as well. I tested their quality on a smaller job on one of our fleet vehicles and quality was impeccable. I have a buddy who owns a car dealership who has been working with them for years and has only seen one quality issue over the years which they fixed at no cost with no questions asked. I think I'm just rambling at this point...and not sure how to proceed. My inclination is to give them the benefit of the doubt and if things go sideways to go after them at that point. Don't want to ruin a relationship if it can be helped. Thoughts?
Im pretty damn positive the slight higher gearing will net you .1 faster on the 1/4 mile MAYBE .2 on a great day. Made a nice impact on the earlier 5 speed and somewhat on the 6 speed. 10 speed auto's? Not soo much...
Will tow nicer around the mountains, thats probably the main advantage over it.

I'll throw in my two cents here. First thing, prep is the key with any paint job. You neglect proper prep and the job looks like crap.
Having said that, if you have heard positive experiences from others, give them a chance to make it right. You can always walk away before you pay them. As a business owner, I actually prefer a complaining customer versus one that just goes away. At least I have the opportunity to make it right.

I got word today that the roof rack delete kit will be in on Friday and axles are 7 days out. They're also getting the 4 bolt rear cross member ordered in to be installed when the axles are replaced. Seeing @Cruising68's experience, there is no way I'll attempt this swap myself.
Also, does anyone know what the difference is in the rear cross member for the Interceptor vs ST/Platinum/etc?
