Surprised I haven't heard anyone blame this on Obamacare. LOL

may be it is how many employees? a Pfadt/Pedders merger that would be nice if they could make it work.

Well this is disappointing...I was planning on ordering some Tri-Y headers when the time was right

. Hopefully you guys can rebuild and come back, we'll be here waiting if/when you do.

VR Baron · 02-26-2014, 02:12 PM

May not be making the return the investors want, and not enough capital for the 3-4 times the orders they are getting. Investors may want more return also and quality can suffer if costs are cut, which it appears Pfadt does not want to do. Happens all the time in cases like that

SILVERHAWK · 02-26-2014, 03:53 PM

Wow, not everyday you hear that a company has to shut down because their sales are too good..........

hope they can get back in the game, I was looking into a set of Tri-Y's.....guess I should have gotten the taxes done sooner. dammit...story of my life....

EncoreCamaros · 02-26-2014, 05:09 PM

Now if you need a refund on an order or on faulty products of yours, how do i get in contact to receive one?

KaBoom1701 · 02-26-2014, 05:15 PM

They should do an IPO here on the forums to raise the capitol they need.

An C5 owned company....now that's what I'm talking about.

Erik and I at Back Street Performance are very sorry to find out about you closing. THANK YOU Aaron for past support and we will be looking forward to working with you on whatever you decide to do in the future.

delta6 · 02-26-2014, 07:52 PM

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you guys will reopen soon. Glad I bought my stuff already from you guys.

Omaha · 02-26-2014, 08:10 PM

Sad to hear for sure. Glad I was able to do all my Stage 3 ZL spec upgrades last spring. Hope you guys come back real soon.

GbrilliantQ · 02-26-2014, 08:18 PM

I'm running their solid subframe bushings, trailing arms and toe rods. Sad to see em go.

From my Note3

I hope they got shipped (purchased through apex)....Looks like I may have waited a little too long..

Well turns out nothing shipped...but thankfully bmr is showing support for all of the people stuck out and offering a large discount....thanks victoria @apex for all of your help
