Im in the same boat, but with a return. Ive been emailing and calling him for weeks with no response.

If you get your $ back through paypal and are still looking for one, let me know. Mine is brand new, 0 miles. It just pushed the belt into my down pipe, so I cant use it.

bought an alt. relocation bracket and it didnt fit. I called him about returning it and never got a reply. The phone number on the website no longer works. The phone number was a "magic jack" number. he wont return my emails or PM's on here. I gave up, this was a few months ago. it was obviously a guy working out of his garage.

I'd never buy from them again.

Hopefully its something that happened and not him being a douchebag. I hate to see that a sponsor fucked us but it has happened before. Just sucks that there are people in this world that do this. I just got beat from a member here for headlights that I never recieved. Been patient and emailing/calling for 2 mths. guess I'll be posting a negative feed post for him.

I spoke to him about a week ago I think. He said he got called out of town on work unexpectedly. I will try to let him know about this thread.

Guys,

Unfortunately, this is infact a side job for me. I have a full time career, new premature twin baby girls, and a lot of other things on my plate. I was doing my best to bring products to the market that people wanted and yes I ran this out of my garage Proud of it... I plan on closing Motovative due to my inability to dedicate the time it needs. I will respond to each of your points below:


itsback08 - I see your order placed. Your card was never charged or processed for that order so I would appreciate you acknowledging that publicly. Google puts a funds hold on the car sometimes. I don't run the cards unless I know I can fill the order. The alternator brackets are on backorder and wont be available. Sorry for the inconvenience.


Strokinit383 - I replied that your return would involve a restocking fee and that you would probably be better off selling the bracket privately to make your money back. I can't take back everyone's returns because of interference with another aftermarket part. This was made to work around a stock accessory drive and exhaust system.

KILLER-LS1 - see above reply

ModularTurbo - You and I have had our run-ins. This just confirms my original opinion of you and your business practices.

I had a hunch, you've always been a stand up kind of guy, I hope everything is ok with the kids.

Sorry to see this but atleast their is closure. One can only imagine how tough it would be to have a full time job with new babies and trying to run a side business! If anyone has issues with the alternator bracket not working let me know, since it's the one I designed. It's not the easiest thing in the world to hook up thats for sure but I've had no issues with it throwing belts and this bracket tucks the alternator in lower than any bracket out there.
