CC. TAYLOR OF NR.


O-boy where do I start??

Well anyhow Neil of NR auto who was the owner at the time came to our shop sometime back to bring a set of wheels he had so we could refinish them. No problem, he then saw a TechArt wing that we had just laying around and asked if he could borrow it and return it to us in 2-months, I'm guessing they wanted to do some R&D however now I know it was to make illegal copies.

Fast Forward (over a year later) to all of Neil's excuses of why he couldn't bring it back, this went on for a while, our suspicions grew as to why it was so hard to just drop our wing off and be done (and pick up your wheels).

Finally last week I was able to speak to Neil who now claims to only be an employee of NR saying that he sold the business. I tell him I'm just going to send someone to come pick up our wing and if he wanted his wheels he can pick those up as well but we were not dropping them off since that wasn't the deal to begin with.

We agreed to do this, have carrier drop off the wing, and we give the carrier his wheels, we also collect from him the discounted price for service to his wheels and we even pay $50 to transport our wing back, so loaning him our TechArt wing now cost us...

HERE IS WHERE IT GET'S REALLY BAD....

Upon deliver the wing was boxed up and wrapped in bubble wrap and so we made no attempt to open it up completely while we loaded up the wheels to the driver, however upon closer inspection later we noticed that NR AUTO gave us a FAKE REPLICA of an ORIGINAL TECHART wing we loaned them, not painted gloss white the way we had loaned to them but now a raw fiber-glass copy.

We call Neil and ask that he find our wing and return it or pay for it, :icon501: he proceeds to tell us that since they had it so long they could do nothing for us and that the quality of his fake copies are just as good etc. I explain to him that it's the same as though he brought me a set of HRE wheels and I give him a fake copy back and unfinished...:grr::grr::grr:

I'm putting this out here for two reasons,

1. to warn those who are thinking of purchasing, know who you are dealing with, if they will scam a vendor to vendor transaction then a vendor to retailer will probably be more probable.

2. to ask for your assistance, we need to locate others who may have had any bad dealings with them since we may need to take them to court to resolve this matter.

If anyone has contact names of those in charge of this place now, please provide here or PM this information, it would help in getting back what we are due even if it means having our day in court which is highly probably at this point.

FAKE NR AUTO WING, YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE IN HARDWARE AND FINISH, NO PART NUMBERS ON THE WING OR ON THE HARDWARE.

Whoa brother. I know your pissed, but you may want to rethink that send button you just hit . . .

I see no issue in calling out someone who is not dealing ethically.

I support your post 100%.

My next set of wheels will be purchased from Wheel Dynamics.

Wheels Dynamic - I support you post and I am glad you posted this information to warn others who want to do future business with NR.
We should not allow vendors to scam us here or anywhere.
NR if you read this, we want to hear your side of the story.

Is NR the manufacturer of the knock-off wings? If not, I don't see what part the company has to play in this situation.

Sounds to me like Neil Whatshisname either sold, lost or damaged your wing and Neil owes you a new one.

What's the retail cost on one of these things, something like $4k? Neil's probably broke and hoped you wouldn't notice he sent you a knockoff. Nothing to see here but an unprincipled dude who can't be trusted with $4k worth of kit.

Take him to small claims court. He's actually made your case for you. By sending you the knockoff wing, he's admitted that he borrowed the original. Unfortunately, you may win but you'll have a heckuva time collecting.

Good luck.

What's there to rethink???

Yes, Taylor who replies to our emails and who spoke with our lead admin was less than professional in trying to get this resolved, it was more like a deny and lie situation there. (asking for proof, documents etc.), well how about a good amount of high resolution photos of the real-deal before you took it.. :cheers:

Aw hell, then forget what I just said. I support you 100% and am willing to go break Neil's legs for you. Just give me the word. :cheers:

Sounds like you did someone a solid and they just totally screwed you over. No good deed goes unpunished.

You said that right my brutha.... :roflmao:
