Aiden James Customs - Anyone heard from them lately?

and I can't imagine that his dealership or Toyota would be happy with him either.

I know that manufacturers monitor these sites. I'm sure that somebody from Toyota is looking at this and saying "hmmm, do we want this guy representing the brand?"

Off duty behavior affects work too. If he's ever sold any of this stuff while on duty then that is most likely grounds for termination.

If somebody is really pissed off at this guy then they could always point the GM at his dealership to this thread.

Scott left the dealership a long time ago to go full time on his current business. If you're gonna stir shit up at least know what you're talking about.
 
Every time I login and see this thread at the top of the list

As an aside, I'd love to know where you can get (assuming injection) molds made so reasonably. Tooling for anything the company I work for wants to have injection molded starts around $15,000 but is typically northward of $20,000. The parts would have around the same volume material as your bezels and sourced from an overseas company. We could make so much more cool stuff, if our tooling costs were lower.

He didn't buy a mold, he bought a run of knock offs
 
Same day, different shit. Most of us here on this forum can see right through your deceptive business practices. You’ve been lying to your customers and dodging their complaints for 3 years now. This thread is literally 3 years old and every so often you chime in with the same exact excuse.

Glad that you got that shady Chinese company that’s been copying Rago/Icarus and US based business designs to make your LED lights for you. Many of us are tired of your broken promises and excuses. Your answers on here are pitiful and self serving.

By the way, you never addressed the reason why you claimed to order SSO, Hefty, ADV Fiberglass, and TJM products for several different customers and then blamed the manufacturers for the delay- when you never even placed the order. Care to chime in?

Since you don’t keep up, I have addressed everything. I am not affiliated with car trim and that’s another person in Canada that is who is no longer an admin in my Facebook group. I had zero to do with any of the copy stuff and immediately addressed it when Mario from Rago alerted me of it.

Moving on to address the SSO, Hefty, ADV and TJM stuff, I showed proof of the orders that were sent and even when SSO tried to state they were going to sue me, they backed off because I had proof. I haven’t had an issue with Hefty and I told you that when you stated a customer placed an order for Hefty products which it wasn’t for Hefty, it was for C4. As for TJM, I can send the weekly emails I sent to TJM asking where the snorkels were and kept in touch with those customers and always offered to refund them. Most waited but after no snorkels for around 6 months from TJM, I dropped TJM and refunded anyone still waiting.

Oh and I have had in depth conversations with Breland about it all and we are good and he even invited back in the group you’re an admin for. I politely declined.

I have done everything I said I would to improve, even so much so that I’m shipping orders same day they are placed.

And for those who somehow think I need to be honest to a dealer or Toyota, why? I don’t work for a dealer and haven’t for almost two years.
 
Just curious about where this stands. I noticed the thread died - not sure if that’s due to production issues being resolved, company being out of business?

Kind of new to this site (sold my 3rd gen and got a 5th) and I like the look of these lights, but the lead time on receiving them seems poor.
 
I think Scott resolved his shipping issues. He was a one man show selling online and running a shop and was overwelmed with the amount of work. He has worked on my 4runner and been honest about it.
 
He is a liar is what he is. Overwhelmed.. but had no problem taking peoples money, not delivering product, mosding his truck no problem and blaming everyone else for his fųck ups. No one should do business with thst shïtbag

It seems like the local guys get the preferential treatment and have no issues with him. He had the tired excuse of "one-man" shop for a couple years and it got old. I *think* he has gotten better lately, but who really knows.

He's still in the FB groups making the same excuses years later, some things never change. He's still blaming everyone else but himself for his short comings. He'll be along here sooner or later to tell everyone that it's different now, but it's always the same excuses
 
As with anything in the service industry you get one chance to make an impression. If you make a bad initial impression it's almost impossible to overcome. Even if things have improved and some things resolved they'll still have a bad reputation. Same went for a company like Orange Boxx Fab. Owner had a few nasty interactions on the forum with some customers and many, including myself, have written them off since then. There are many other companies that make similar products ready to take advantage. Transparency is one thing but the biggest mistake any company can make it to openly argue with customers online even if they are just trying to defend their position. So whether or not AJC has resolved issues it doesn't really matter, I'll never order anything from them ever.
 
as you stated you dont know anymore. since this is a very old thread and I dont see any current complaints, I think just let it go and let the guy run his business.

Ah, but when gobi takes 6 months for a rack, most 5th gen guys are still willing to gargle their balls. Cool story, Cyrus.
 
Would you look at that, this thread came back from the dead again.

I guess I'll take that as a sign to update everyone on how the product is doing after about 1.5 years installed.

One year in, the passenger side started flickering in and out, eventually it stopped working altogether. The connector between the wiring harness and the light itself becomes extremely corroded, since there is really nothing weatherproof about the setup. After spending WAY too much time scrubbing with dissolved baking soda and a toothbrush, I got it back in working order... for about a month, before the same thing happened again.

I'll give it one more try with the toothbrush, then seal it up with heat-shrink. But I doubt it will last long. It's really hard to get those tiny pins completely clear.

The LED light tubes themselves have become pretty discolored, which is really only noticeable when the lights are off. I wash the car weekly and always do my best to scrub them well, but the brownish color won't budge. When turned on, they are bright enough to shine through just fine.

I think that the quality of the wiring is the biggest issue, I'll be taking them off if the heat shrink can't keep them working properly. It just looks stupid with only one of them working.

However, it was nice to have them as functioning blinkers when I busted my headlight a while back. Kept me street legal.

Except he strung people along for over a year.. without an update. At least with Gobi they tell you it will be 6 months... dumbass

You’re not very bright, are you. There are tons of complaints about gobi giving bs tat on their stuff. Claiming something will ship in a week but taking 6 months, but that’s cool. If aj was that bad then all people have to do is ask for a refund or chargeback....or just don’t buy his stuff. If someone is willing to wait then why piss and moan? You sound like an entitled, know-it-all prick who always expects to get his way or else a tantrum ensues. I had a vendor take a year on a part, I didn’t run here and make a trash talking post. Dean Wormer’s quote really applies to you...”fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life.”

Oh I really got to you, stupid shït. You bring up a vendor that has nothing to do with the post. Why dont you bring up BMW build times also? Fūckïn idiot.. go garble on nuts somewhere else. No one gives two shïts what you think or feel. Ill bust on whoever i damn well please. Entitled? HAHA it must be a human right to hang on to peoples money for years on end.. blame other people for your short comings and claim you are turning it around every 9 months. What a fūckïn joke. People like him are in business cause of nut swinging idiots like you.... but but but Gobi!! Please. Go start a Gobi thread.
