i saw this year or two ago also, now i see it again. apparantly JSP wings, which make legitimate wings for most cars, decided to copy the Aed low wing?
whatever, but good price if anyone wants one. they arent that bad, i had one years ago from Aed.

douchebag Len threatened a few people with that back in the day when (god forbid) he started getting competitors and AED wasnt the only game in town. Ask sikmindz if you really want the full history "papers are in the mail" is a inside joke only old school members would understand :lol:
I'll place bets AED already contacted JSP and threatened a lawsuit

oh, i was a long time member of aed, had bunch of their products. just slow on catching on to that hahaha. i remember all the threats Len made about this when it was posted long time ago. and i also remember "racerbetty" (Len's wife) her signature said something about boycotting Sikmindz. haha yeah what douchebags. i would rather buy a copy or fake and get it faster than buy their products and wait years. im banned from the site form shittalking when they bulshitted members on update threads.

The auction verbage says that it is "almost identical to an AED spoiler". Looks like JSP knows how to change dimensions enough to prevent court battles.

As long as its not exactly the same its not copyright infringement...does AED even have a copyright on their design? This is not uncommon with body kits nissan have tons replica skyline body kits I never heard of nissan sending papers to stop production of them. Competition is good for business IMO helps drive the price down.

I also think JSP provides better customer service and customers receive their parts in a timely manner without hearing excuses about deaths, automobile industry is down, etc. What's next, the dog died :???:
It is sad that family members die, by why grieve about it so much by saying they slow down the business.

because Len and Len Sr were 50/50 on projects... Len Sr's untimely passing caused a lot of issues... They didn't have a staff... it was Len and his dad pumpin shit out. Then Sr died, and quite honestly, I can understand where Len is coming from... He not only lost his father, but his business partner, and that can put you in a real sour mood ya kno?

This has happened over a year ago - I know it is a tragic event but why keep using it as an excuse. You have people who pay tons of money for a product and they have yet to receive this product for year to years. Not only receive the product, but don't receive any customer service. How can a company run on this. A death is a death, it shouldn't destroy the business. If it does, then you know Sr. did all the work and Len can't keep up.
When a company doesn't answer the phone, return messages, return PM's, or post - what are they doing? The last update was the shop pictures. If he is busy, post some picture of the headlights and tails. The only thing they do on the site is ban people who ask for their money or parts.
How can anyone support them and give them the benefit of the doubt:???:

I completely agree with you Gus....but knowing this....why would you take NEW orders and payment that you know you can't fill at this time??? That's just bad buisness practice no matter what the situation is.

Yeah I hear both of you, I was just responding to original reasons... if he's still saying that now, I don't have a reply to that... hell I haven't even spoken to them since the blow out last April...
OT- I would like to bitch that I did become very close with Len and Sus, and while I can understand their decision to not be friends with me, ban me from the site and not talk to me, it erks me that Eddie can be repeatedly banned, and unbanned.
and he's a dink too... he gets banned so he comes over here and talks mad shit... then gets unbanned and disappears... his next appearance here will be when he gets banned again

Not to add fuel to the fire but it sounds to me like AED already went at JSP and got smacked down. Why would JSP go through so much trouble to specifically mention AED and Len and how it is NOT copyrighted, trademarked, et al. unless it was purely to rub it in that they can legally sell it with no reprimand?

This spoiler will fit all 1999, 2000, 2001, and 2002 Pontiac Grand Am's.
This spoiler may fit other vehicles as well, but it is your responsibility to checking fittament before bidding and purchasing this spoiler. We do not have an application guide for any other car besides the Grand Am, so you will have to check that independantly. We have been told directly by Leonard from AED Central that they do not want this spoiler installed on a Civic, only on Grand Am's. So, I'm assuming that it must look good on a Civic also
Last sentence...
