Default Re: pteazer roll pan .... geesh

Thanks to all the folks that commented on my Pteazer roll pan.first lets address the safety I do take offence to the absolute hammering I got from some one but I realise there are allways going to be some none fans out there. obviously the reinforcement on the rear cant do anything to protect the rear hatch in an accident as it fits flush with the hatch.So you will get damage to the hatch,this may be of concern if you have a fancy murial painted on the rear or something.but normally if you get hit from behind the other guys insurance has to put the car back to pre collision condition includeing the paint .Ok the reinforcement bar on the Pteazer reinforcement cant protect the taigate but it does tie the two rails together which does help some,however if someone can think of a better way im open to listening.as fare as I know mine are the only ones that come with any reinforcement of any kind?Next the price ,yes its not cheep,I am trying to keep my parts manufactureing done in USA which is allmost impossible to do anymore.It costs allmost ten times more to make stuff here insted of China.Am I the last blanking person left that cares about trying to keep American Qaulity? and jobs. I hope not because I actually think its chicken sh t to send all our manufactureing away to save a buck.For the one guy that mentioned the safty concernes I have had more than 37 years of collision experiance includeing the last nine on Pt cruisers exclusivly.I have seen hundreds of crashed cruisers through my shop and every single insurance adjuster has been impressed by the way my parts held up . I allso have been a seriuos racer for many many years and have the utmost concern for safty.in another posting I will cover my fronts and how when Chevy wanted a reinforcement for the SSR they did acactly the same as my smoothie front reinfocement only they stacked two on top of each other but went with a much smaller diamiter tube as the Pteazer one was over kill. Im sure they did all the expensive crash testing and decided to go with it so thats a pretty good indorsement where I come from.Bye the way there is a economic stimulas sale and if anyone wants to contact me I will give you my new prices 714 448 8630 Ray Newton Pteazer.
