Ughhhh...are we still talking about this? Booooorrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiionnnnnggggg!!!!!!!

LoL.

Seriously, @aaron240 way to go on getting yet another option out there....

Everyone is looking as I laugh uncontrollably.
Ah hahaha hahaha haha ha ha
I'm still confused but I'm still on the same position I was at originally.

Great work on designing and bringing a part to market.
Also thanks for sticking with it through the rough thread. Lol

 

[High on Ethanol]

To be fair, the SHO community would not even know what these part numbers are or if they were compatible with the 2010-19 SHO if it wasn't for my research, design, and engineering efforts/time spent on this platform improvement. My time is valuable and deserves to be recognized as well being financially compensated by a portion of each kit sold for my engineering efforts. I am not greedy nor am I trying to price gauge SHO enthusiasts. I am trying to improve the platform and make performance upgrades more financially accessible to customers than the current available offerings.

Exactly man. I get the same shit on consulting fees. Customers don't want to admit experience, knowledge, and research isn't cheap or free.

Competition brackets are going for $299.99. You need to come down off $600 buddy. The value just isn’t there. And as far as testing goes....the only thing you’re offering is brackets...you’re just using Wilwood proven performance....so there’s not much testing to be done really....of course Wilwood 4 or 6 piston calipers will be better than our OEM...obviously and granted Wilwood doesn’t need you to prove their performance. The only test you need is to prove their calipers don’t fall off the car. You’re just offering a set of brackets. I’m sure Wilwood appreciates the business but you on the other hand will have a shelf of brackets collecting dust for $600. It takes time and some money to invest in starting something. You don’t get a full return on day 1 of releasing something...especially something ppl are unsure about. Do yourself a favor and drop the price and sell some kits and maybe you will thank me later.

inb4 not same platform, how dare you compare a different platforms brackets that also have 4 holes

Inb4 1000 SHOs VS 2million mustangs

Although I would love lower prices like the next guy. Those $300 brackets are for an SN95 Mustang, a vehicle so commonly modified that these can be mass produced in large bulk quantities, which lends itself to a lower price point. I dont think the SHO platform can ever have those quantities, so the price would naturally be higher. Maybe there's some wiggle room for @aaron240 or maybe he's gonna have to sit on some inventory for awhile to get that lower price, but ultimately, it's up to him.

Whew I barely beat you lmao

It is a valid point though, ordering 500 units would net you a discount in manufacturing vs ordering 5 or 6 units. This is something I deal with even in my field, the more parts you buy the larger the discount.

I am sure they are going to get put to the test. I believe that will be the deciding factor for most people, myself included.

Maybe if Aaron installed a set on his own vehicle or something along those lines lol

 

[bpd1151]

Wowzers. This turned into quite the thread!

Maybe our pal Ryan S. will consider installing two sets of calipers at each corner to double the test results? LOL

Yeah what a great idea, to do more R&D, testing and spend more additional money only to hear the same complaints and negativity about pricing. I'm fed up with the negativity and "I can do it cheaper mentality/this isn't even a real improvement" stigma that this crowd seems to have. I'm just gonna sit back and let all of the engineer's, game changers and shot callers on this community page make the setup as affordable as they claim it can be done for because I'd also enjoy this Hella price break that supposable out there and not have to spend my time and $$ when i could just write a real small check and get the "same" setup.

One question I just thought of. Doesn't the bracket have to change in order to clear a larger rotor? Genuine curiosity here.

Yeah, it def does. Guess who has to spend the $$ on that rotor set, do the precision measuring, build the 3d model, make the machining drawings, specify the material, work with the machine shop vendor in regards to setup time/programing, allocate material, pay for this whole process, and also drive the 2 hour round trip to pick these new parts up.

Wow the fact that 802SHO and Jordan have nothing nice to say is very telling. You guys are haters and you do us all a big disservice by discouraging progress and just refusing to get your freaking calculator out. It would be one thing if you had valid concerns but you don't. Because at first the product was so simple that it should cost $100 retail. But now it needs some real world validation. Now you want some testing to make sure they don't "fall off" and you want them to be $100/free. but doesn't Lee already run these brackets? And did he not already say how awesome these brackets are and post a picture of 2 beautiful brackets? So which is it? Is it so easy to engineer and manufacture that its only worth $100 or is it a critical component that requires proper research/development/manufacturing. Because r/d cost BIG bucks.

Much mo bettah. Crazy all these optimizations and price changes applicable!

What the **** are you talking about? He changes the cart at summit but somehow he's changing prices? He literally has been saying the same thing this whole time. But you still want to chime in and act like somehow we're all getting taken for a ride because YOU refuse to acknowledge that wilwoods are an OBVIOUS upgrade. Just defending your (lack of) purchase decision.

He's supposed to drop $600 off the price of his $600 brackets? You guys will never be satisfied. My advice to aaron240 is to sell your sho and start developing f150 parts. I work in customer service all day and these are DEFINITELY not the customers you want. You would have a customer service nightmare no matter how awesome any of your products may or not be.

Haters? No I’m not a **** that’s going to take in the ass for a set of brackets...but by all means Matthew...bend over let Aaron slam his brackets deep down your butt after you take his balls out of your mouth. Jesus Christ man....you don’t know me one bit! Don’t pretend you know anything about me or what I’m about. The price for brackets is a rip off plain and simple.
