Middle of October, but Greg said he mailed out all the orders the same day. Those in the northeast should get them today (I'm outside of Boston), other parts of the country in the next few days.

lol, are you serious?! I ordered mine last Tuesday from Stealth Maxima and received them last friday...it took me less than a week to receive mine and it took u a few months?! that's madness, i guess u asked for them at a time when they were having problems...

mine look real good on my car...I just need to clean this bad boy and put some fog lights so i have 3 layers of white...

I think he has been kinda busy with everything else lately like school, the site, the orders etc. Maybe not that much but I am not sure.

You serious??????

**** I hope they are not regular. One of the main reasons I continued to wait 3 and a half months is because I wanted the Diamond cuts. Besides the regulars cost less. Can anyone else please confirm? I'll take some more pics..

well.. the big piece looks diamond cut.. the smaller piece might look like it's not in the picture because of the reflection.. It looks pretty clear and "diamond cut" to me. I'll post some more pics, my USB cable is acting up.. They look clearer then the regular ones.. My camera just sucks hehe

Sometimes the flash does scary things to pictures. Especially when they are clear AND reflective. Does it looks exactly like the pic or is it a little different looking in person?

Those are the diamond cuts. I think by which you took the pic at that angle made it look like clears and flash does do weird *** things to pics.

Just opened them up. The side part does look exactly like a regular clear. What's up with that?? I don't think it was NYCe MaXiMa's camera.
I'm gonna email greg to have him check them out.

Damnit, I missed the UPS guy buy 5 minutes. He left the info notice and sure enough it was the diamond cuts. Now I have wait until tomorrow.

But now i'm worried, because a lot of people are saying that they got regular clears instead of diamond cuts. That would suck so much!!

I posted about this a few mins ago as well, I am very ****ed, just installed them and all but looks like I am taking them out tomorrow and may be sending them back. I opened the box and was liek YES clears! but then took a closer look and was like wtf, so I hesitated and put them on, but they do look like regular clears, I am kinda annoyed now cause a 4 month wait, paid more then ebay and then also had to pay tax cause Im in CT, so now it turns out they are not diamond cut, I emailed Greg already...

Re: Re: some pics

I bought a pair of regular clears from procarparts in December, and they look exatcly the same.

The housing is gray in color, the hardware is bronze metal color, it came in a white box too.

I'm not helping .. sorry

I can understand everyone's frustration, but

PLEASE

someone send e-mail to Greg, it's not going to change the fact that today, alot of you got sets that are 'doubtful' .. so someone send an e-mail to Greg, and ask Greg to post some feedback on this forum.

Oh, if someone does send him an e-mail, please post on this thread so Greg won't get spammed in his e-mail. My 0.02

I didn't buy a set, but I'm just tryig to help.

Greg said that's how they come now? I'm sure out of all people he should know the difference between regular clears and diamond cut... he promised us diamond cut and diamond cut is what i want...
