As this mod applies to Gen V owners and the thread was only posted on the Gen V forum yesterday, (I only go on Gen V forum), this seems to be very short notice to be aware of the new product and react to preorder. I'm sure if you give more time to preorder, many more would be interested to join in
Just sayin !

The threads were posted in the Gen V and IV forums about a week ago but I did reply to the threads yesterday as a reminder. If anyone did not make the cutoff please let me know and I will see what can be done as far as increasing production quantities. triblk6spd is good to go. Production is underway, look for updates soon. Thanks to all, the response has been overwhelming!

A quick update. The first production unit was in my hands today for about an hour. Did a test fit on my car and took some notes for minor changes and sent it down to Texas for test fit with the Arrow closeout panel and then to test fit the GenV. Production will be full throttle once we have a confirmation of fit.

Also have the thumb screws done and they are being anodized. Progress is being made and trying to get these things in your hands ASAP.

Confirmed fit with the Arrow closeout panel on the Gen IV (thanks Kyle). Now to confirm Gen V fit and proceed with production.

Anxiously awaiting this mod. Thanks for keep us in the loop as you progress.

**v10tt** · 05-14-2015

Thanks for the update. When do you expect to start shipping out the Gen V units?

**SSGNRDZ_28** · 05-14-2015

Depends on several factors most of which are outside of my control but I'm hopeful for shipping to start by the second week of June.

Gen V fit went well, production on the shields has begun!

It is on the list and some work has been done but progress will be slow until my workload eases up.

**dxbtune** · 05-20-2015

Am interested in this as well. Numbers speak for themselves as far as temperature goes.

**Dustin** · 05-21-2015

totally in for one. I need this in my ilfe

**Junkie** · 05-22-2015

Any news on when these will ship? Starting to warm up here and every little bit helps!

**SSGNRDZ_28** · 05-22-2015

About 3 weeks until they ship I would say. Possibly a bit sooner.

**SSGNRDZ_28** · 05-27-2015

A first batch of shields is expected to be fabricated next week, if the quantity completed is large enough I'll have them coated and shipped (which will take an additional week or so). In the meantime I'm putting together the hardware kits and preparing for shipping.

Ditto.

**SSGNRDZ_28** · 06-02-2015

The shields are being welded tomorrow. We are probably a bit behind schedule to ship next week but we are getting close now. Moving things along as quick as I can, hope to take some if not all to be coated by the end of the week.

P.S. If you haven't paid yet and don't want a shipping delay, some time in the next week would be the time to get that taken care of. Thanks!
