Bang on Rob.
I can handle the suspect quality (dodgy welding, cracking, rattles, noisey ovals etc) if they put it right when you reported it, but they dont, they just fob you off.
If I hadnt already bought it, I would now be waiting to see what other companies come up with.
My advice to people thinking about changing their exhausts is hang on for a while and do your research !!

trying hard not to have doubts in my mind, but you are putting them in my mind
well....I have made enough effort for the BF gorup buy, so seriously hope it pays off
I can only hope tinbum that they have rectified these issues....

Well I hope for the guys that have done the group buy that they have rectified the issues. In fairness (not that it should matter) I bought my system probably 18mnths ago, so things might have changed by now, but generally I thought that BF were pretty shocking to deal with..............
Maybe Nigel should start joining these forums and check out what people think, but from what I've heard recently, they cant even be bothered to answer their

lol i must be lucky then, as everytime I have called I have always got an answer or at least someone has picked up the phone
maybe 18months on there customer service has improved a little....I emphasise on the word little
although i cannot judge as this is the first time I have dealt with BF, but their failure to set all of our expectations on the GB thread has been a little frustrating to say the least
I can onlu hope
Keep up us updated HarveyGTI... you obviously want this to work out as much as we do for you, but I'm sure I'm not alone in being interested in the outcome

tell me about it Rob, especially when I have the money ready and waiting
having always had S/S exhaust on every car I have had - Superspint, magnex, jetex, I know what good quality is
Never gone with a bespoke system before, so lets hope its as good as the more well known brands
Your getting me abit worried now lol
I'm not local to BF so i can't just pop in if I have a problem with anything.
But I think it is okay now that's why I'm taking the plunge
I think the people that had the problems was the first batch of people on the first group buy which was nearly 2 years now I think.
So all the issue's came up then, which have now filtered down to BF have been redesigned.

Not to mention the fact that this exhaust managed to get past quality control. I mean, surely exhausts like this that cost hundreds of pounds will at least be checked and tested before being sent out to the paying customer?
It is the smallest pinprick hole in one of the joins, not really visble apart from the black exhaust deposit, when the cars up on the ramp. Yes the back box sits a little low for my taste in the rear bumper, but not by much. If it was anything major id have fixed it but it really isn't that bad. ive seen a lot worse systems, the blueflame one compartivley looks very good.
Ummmmmm makes you wonder doesnt it bud !!
I bet if he called them to try and sort it, they would mug him off with some story about kids putting stones in the end or something totally random !!!

I think the best way to settle this will be when i get mine and see if i still have the same experiences as you tin
if not, then they have changed and improved their product
