CarBenfibre creations, are they still operating?

Post by aussieGT »

Hi,

I have been trying to get in touch with carbenfibrecreations, I emailed their site over a month ago and tried pm'ing as well.

No reply.

I see on their site they were having problems due to the US storm, but I tried long before that happened.

Are they still operating or is their communication a bit slow?

As Craig said Ben is affiliated here and he is also on several MR2 forums. You can even search for him on eBay.

Why would the US storms affect a business in the UK?

You wouldn't buy GRP materials from another country as they are readily available here in the UK

Can't help with the current contact issue, but one condition of becoming an IMOC affiliate is a published phone number.

I'm sure IMOC admins will sort when he resurfaces.

Good news.

He just needs to update his contact info here and on his website, and he'll be trading legally again :thumleft:

Hi guys, turns out my email supplier although they are UK based all their servers are hosted in the US so once the storm hit I couldnt get any emails which meant I never got PM notifications.

All is sorted now though, aussieGT hope you like the carbon mate ive updated PayPal with tracking info for you :thumleft:
