Trying to contact JDP Engineering, no dice!

So I am trying to order a 12-13 front cf lip from JDP Engineering, however I haven't heard back from them.

I got John's number from a friend (shout out to EriK) and tried calling and left a text...although haven't heard anything back.

I know people get busy and stuff, but was hoping after a week I would get some contact.

I haven't tried email, because I heard calling was best.

So anyone who has ordered from JDP, is this normal? Is John still making parts? Should I call again, but I don't want to come off as a jerk for calling more than once.

Any advice would be helpful. Thanks.

I ordered from JDP two months ago. Yes, they still make parts. I would try email if your contact method hasn't reached him. sales@jdpengineering.com

Hopefully that works. I know this is a side business for John, and I'm not expecting immediate results but contact from his side would be reassuring.

I sent him an email and called twice last week... never got a call back and haven't seen a reply in my email yet. I know he's usually stacked with work.

Has anyone tried to order JDP parts from vivid racing?
https://products.vividracing.com/bod...2011_H3ii8.php
I contacted vivid racing through their live support a couple of months ago and they stated that they were able to get the parts directly from JDP but it just takes a little bit of time.

I hope he contacts all of us soon. Could we send in a group order or something?

I don't see the 12-13 lip listed. That is the one I need.

Same here. I would be will to do a group buy but I believe there would have to be multiple orders of the same part. Like 5 GD OR GE lips I believe (just pulling a number out of the air).

I've ordered 5 JDP parts from VividRacing since the beginning of November "paid in full" and I'm still waiting on my parts. No dice ;/ I spoke to someone from Vivid and he told me they've been trying to get in contact with John and they're not having any luck. I was also told that Vivid had like 10+ orders for JDP parts that's still pending.. JDP is a one man show according to VividRacing.

I'll prob wait it out until the spring. If I don't receive my parts by then I'll just request for a refund. I just think it's crazy how it's going to take 6 months that's if I wait till the spring for my parts to arrive.

You gotta be on him but he will come through

He will make batches if you can convince him to do so

That seems unfair to you, they just take your money and hope they can get in contact with John...thats a lot of faith to hold.

I'm sure there is a few people looking for lips! Considering its not easy to get maybe if we get a few people committed it will be incentive enough to actually get a reply and hopefully made.

Just contacting him is the hard part. I don't want to keep pestering the guy, or piss him off. That is a sure way to never get anything made. But at the same time how do you communicate with someone who doesn't reply.

Yes it was recent.
I emailed on the 29th and got a reply Jan 1st 2015 with this


Thanks for the email. Happy New Year!
Price for the front lip is $300 and the rear spoiler is $290. Shipping for both items is $85 within the US.


Also I am in for the front lip and rear wing for GE if others are as well.Id like to see those prices come down if there are 10 of us or so

I am in for a front lip. Any chance you could email him and ask if he could do a group buy discount? Maybe he will reply back to you?
