Did Custom Enterprise go out of business???

Does anyone know if they went under? Everytime I try to get on the site the site is down. They never pick-up the phone (at anytime during the day) and I am still awaiting a product to be delivered and no one is responding to my emails (it has been more than three weeks since the order and I have sent many many emails with no response at all).

I am about to call my bank and dispute the charge because I am tired of the run around.

Any info on this subject is greatly appreciated.

I heard from a reliable source that they have closed up shop. The owner is moving on to bigger and better things.

"Bigger and better things"...lol...Right now he's running with his tail between his legs, not to mention he's gonna have a hard enough time getting his credibility back. For him it's time to pay the piper.

They are officially out of business, This has been confirmed to me by a mutual supplier. Any pending orders people may have or anything should be dealt direct with your CC company, as CE does not exist.

Dont forget eBay... the red clear taillights are very cheap there...

I bought a Tokico HP suspension kit, last year from CE, and they took 4 month to ship them.
Glad I havent bought from them since...
On the other side, I only can praise ebay sellers. Always been satisfied....

i still dont understand why they [ce or redline] didnt post anything sooner stating that they will be closing...making people wait in the dark is not good. good luck to everyone still trying to get their items or money.

because the org is run basically by one guy (Doug) who has a day job, and probably doesn't want to deal with selling parts to all the cheap bastards here....

I was one of the very few lucky ones too. However, I didn't order anything else considering the prices. Usually when someone orders something for their car they are excited. For some reason I just didn't get the tingling sensation in my ******* when dealing with them.

Before you newbies get on here and start bashing folks get your facts straight. CE was terrible when it came to both customer service and dealing with the people in general. Redline suffered something totally different and can't even be compared to CE. Corey did his best to make things work out for folks but something they didn't realize was happaning transpired. Sure things could have been handled differently but that goes for any company. Corey at the minimum came and explained why they went out of business and that they would settle any disputes. It's unfortunate that people get scammed on here by worthless human beings but you can't compare Redline to CE on anything. Corey did more for the Maxima community than CE did in their entire existence. It's because of attitudes like this that more and more of the remaining vendors we do have in the Maxima community are focusing on other things. Cause the minute something doesn't quite go our way, the bashing begins.

I dealt with CE for my clear corners and got them in a timely manner, but they one of them fell off within the first week.?? And dont say its my fault installing it, cuz they are not hard to put on, so I don't know what the heck happened. But I bought another pair off eBay for half the price, adn they are still on my car , over a year ago know.?? WTF? CE was overpriced anyway!
