I will post up when they are expected to arrive. I am not one to tie up anyones $$$$ until we have an expected shipping date

We will order more after these arrive. The next batch will also have the Passenger side included with the shipment to us.

Hey man, I can't blame you there since stuff is prone to happen at any given time though. But yeah, post up when you are taking orders and I may have to get one off of ya cause $60 for a box like that is well worth it to me.

We sell a lot of these (read: Atrend B-Box series sub boxes) and have had quite a few come back because they have come apart. It's an easy fix, but as long as you keep in mind that they are "budget-friendly" boxes, you shouldn't have any surprises.

We too have sold Alot of Atrend boxes and have NOT had these issues you speak of

Atrend has made our Corvette boxes for us for along time now.

Atrend is 3 hours from us and we work direct with them at the facility with car to mock up the car specific enclosures they make for us.

So since this product is made for us to our specs I am sure you can not comment on the quality of the products being made since they are not even available yet.



Atrend is now selling these to many customers from Petra ect and my source at Petra also says they have no issues with the boxes we helped Atrend Design as I asked him today as well

If we have issues with somethign we dont offer it

Thats why we no longer sell OBX headers, Repro wheels ect
Would not send out something with known issues

I'm not worried about the quality,Like you said you're not going to sell us JUNK. If for some reason there was a few bad ones in the bunch,you would be here to help us out I'm sure.

IF there would be an issue I would switch someone out. Any issues like this Atrend would stand behind them as well and honor credits to me. I have asked all these questions in the past when setting up deals with them to make our C5 and C6 sub boxes



Here is some pics of the boxes Atrend makes for us now for 3 years for the C5 and C6

the gray ones will have the same carpet on the gray ones for you guys and the black flush mount C5 box will have the same black carpet.
We also can wrap them in leather, carbon leather, vinyl and a different color carpet doing this in house should someone want that done.





















some pics of when we were at Atrend mocking up the C6 Coupe box

I wouldn't' normally worry about these kind of things especially if they are a sponsor, their products have to be really good so they can get really positive feedback and people would recommend them, I've never had issues dealing with forum sponsors. well scratch that I did have issue with one but I just never used them again

I guess I shouldn't have mentioned my experience with the boxes. I am glad everyone else is enjoying their purchases. Like I said, I still want one (so they can't be that bad), its just what I have ran into. And we get our Atrend boxes from Petra as well.

We buy direct from Atrend for our purchases. I only go direct from source to cut out the middle man to save all of you more money.
Petra is a source for home equipment i use
Just so happend the guy I deal with at Petra (JD)has a C6
He was telling me about the new ATrend C6 box and I had to laugh and told him it was my box design as we worked direct with Atrend to design it for them.

Atrend just moved into a newer facility in Elk Grove VIllage, IL as well as they outgrew the old location.

no way. that is what a "tech" board is for. unbiased experience. anything less isIMO. its up to the consumer to decide finally. its all about the betterment of everyone. atrend themselves cant improve if they dont know what failed. everyone has bad apples, the difference between winners and losers is what they do with the bad apples. do they deny they exist and sweep them under the rug, or, do they examine them to learn from them and improve to prevent the bad apple form occurring again?
