are the new grilles softer than the originals? are they a different plastic?

i see the new ones on sale for $500 complete/shipped. i just don't want to waste my money on a so-so product i won't be happy with.

If NMike has a different site where they are complete for that price, please post it.  The site I posted they don't have the accessories, trim and hardware included.

Looks almost identical to the add that Premeir Plastics ran in MCG.

Tom, exactly what I posted on another thread. Call him and see if they are in stock...the whole PP thing got me thinkin' you know.
Hope it is ready to go, get it now, etc....  I would've bought it 4 months ago myself instead of spending oodles of man hours rebuilding mine.

It is, with "Mopar Traffic" added to the right hand corner.  From Premier's site:

These are from Premier plastics so they would need a few days to ship.  I have had no problems with them so far, but I see alot of people do not like Premier Plastics.  I am still trying to get to the bottom of all the negativity, to be sure I want to even sell for them.  Like I said I have had no problems so far, but you never know.  I do have great contact with them.  I talk to angela almost daily.  I basically work for several different people.  I sell Gunslingers products and people get them faster.  It does seem here recently that premiere plastics are slow, but I do want poeple to realize this company is as far as I know a one family business, maybe they are in over their heads here.  My website by no means want to make people unhappy.  So, the first thing i want is... email me your ordered info, how you paid and when, to see if I can help right ship here.  If not They will be removed my from my website.  Like I said I have sold about 15 sets of tail lights all happy customers.  The grille however I have not sold not a single piece, so maybe thats where the problems start.  Let me know.
Check out New Upcoming site.

I don't think the issue has ever been the taillights.  So, you don't have the grilles in stock then? If you are drop shipping the grilles and they are in fact from premiere plastics, that is definitely where the problem is. :Twocents:

Someone needs to get these things in stock and have them ready to go IMO, but I believe it's just PP who claims they are making them(meaning, i guess no one else makes them).

If you are advertising that you have these grilles available for purchase and you haven't got them, you are asking for a world of headaches.  A few unhappy customers on this site or elsewhere and your site will be known as mopartrafficJAM. :yesnod:

That should get you started anyway.  Type in premiere plastics if you want more.

Darrin,  Sorry I would never buy anything that you would DROP SHIP from PP.  They are still from my understanding taking money and not delivering product.  That is WRONG.  I am glad you have a connection to speak to them but I have a guy down the road who has been waiting at least 9 months paid for it and is WAITING.  I would personally not do business with them.

I hope you have better luck than everyone else.

This is my story with Premier Plastic Reproductions:

I ordered a 69 charger grille Thru phone contact with Angel Sexton on 3/28/08, This is over 6 months ago. She was very nice to talk to on the phone and said a grille would be on the way in 8-10 weeks. THE CATCH IS YOU CANNOT GET RETRIBUTION FROM YOUR CREDIT CARD COMPANY AFTER 60 DAYS. I have attached a photo of the credit card reciept. After many attempts thru June, July and Augest I finally got a response from ANGELA stateing my grille would be sent out the next week......Well here we are in October and NO GRILLE or any return calls from Angela or the company. Please note that if you GOOGLE premier Plastic Reproductions The first items that come up are the RIP OFF REPORTS filed by other customers.

Emails I received::::

And More:::

XS29J

No response  Will not answer phone calls What do you do.  """""I do not think I would be trying to sell a product for a company that treats people this way....""""

XS29J

If you go to Premier Plastic Reproductions WEBSITE their grilles are  ON SALE!!! For $375..  They never answer the phone but CALL YOU BACK if you are a potential PAYING customer. Don't lose your money to.

darrin75:   If you talk to ANGELA daily , What is her response to "WHY I'VE waited 7 months for a grille?
DO you sell their Grilles?
If so why?

Mike DC

 

We'd have gotten these grilles years ago if PP had not started doing this. 

They're not delivering enough to cover the demand for the part, but their operation's presence is still stopping others from investing in producing the grilles. 


XS29J

It is terrible that a Bussiness like Premier Plastic Reproductions is even allowed to exist. They take your money and then press on to take other peoples money with no remorse. If they cannot fill my order of ONE 1969 grille from MARCH of 2008 WHY would they continue advertising Grilles for sale And then EVEN HAVE A SALE ON THEM!!!    THEY do not deliver.  DON"T GET SCAMMED!  pass the word..

resq302

xs29j,

I can understand your frustration as I would hate to lose that kinda money too as money for me right now is extremely tight.  But, I am pretty sure that we all get the jist of your postings by now.  Please give it a rest or take matters to the next level and take them to small claims court.  Maybe a certified letter from an attorney will rattle their cage.
