Problems with Status Gruppe
Has anyone encountered any problems in the past with Status Gruppe? I ordered a set of their headers and it seems like there’s been set back after set back and now they have failed to return my calls and the mailbox is full. Raises some red flags.
I’d just like to hear some other folks experiences before really passing some judgement here... I have to say my hopes were quite high for his product and I was really excited to see it on the car.

Haven't dealt with them personally, but there's A LOT of feedback similar/exactly like yours on M3Forum.
Seems that while they ship a good product for a decent price, the process can take months and communication is not always the best. I know their last group buy (which a few Zpost members took part of) was a sh*t show and was months beyond the promised delivery dates, excuse after excuse.

I understand having set backs, but I think the communication is what makes me worry the most. I had a bunch of time to wait for the product and feel I’ve been decently patient with them (if anyone knows me from here it’s one of my strengths, even with car parts). It’s put me in a bind so I placed another order with Turner for some super sprints... I just don’t have any time left to wait for SG as I’ll only be home from my overseas tour in Africa for about a month or so before returning and I have to get the car inspected. I wish the situation was different.
I’m sorry to hear that there have been issues in the past, I probably should have looked up more threads in regards to the company on different forum boards. I just didn’t think to look past the mostly positive reports here on ZPOST. I wish I could hold out longer. I appreciate the Intel rockstar.

Looks like they're back in the spotlight again. Buying a $180 'eBay' bumper and reselling it for $600.

I was also part of the shitty GB but thankfully backed out when we stopped receiving updates about 3 weeks in. Hate it when business go silent and do not have a dedicated customer service setup.
Am now rocking a set of genuine CSL headers with the Swain tech coating. Couldn't be better! |

I appreciate it everyone.
It's unfortunate that it comes down to this, I really believed in their company and their products. I was very excited to try to get this installed on the Z. I went with some SuperSprint headers instead (purchased through Turner), they should be showing up today and installed later this week. I truly had high hopes for this outcome several months ago, but I've paid the price in my time at home (between deployments) for thinking it wasn't something that was too good to be true.
