As always, it seems people care more about Price then Quality. Kevin, I loved your product at HIN and I'm confident your products are well worth the price.

Yep yep, Status Elite is very proud of how these intakes turned out. We set our standards very high and which sets us apart from many common manufactures. Our products are very well designed with the higherst quality, performance, and ALWAYS using the latest technology.
Status Elite's products are respectively directed torwards clients who are truely looking for unique products with best quality. We stand behind our products and we like to help out and educate the community with our background knowledge of technical/mechanical performance&repair, interior/exterior quality&design, and most importantly we strive to Manufacture the highest quality and best designed product.
We emphasize our goals, because we believe that's what sets us apart from many others. We will not compete in price, because price does not directly reflect quality. Our quality reflects our price respectively. For instance, break down the price of this intake from scratch to final product. Please factor in CNC designed mass airflow sensors blocks , thermal expanded center section to allow correct MAF readings and Increase in velocity because it steps down, 45 degrees bend, huge HIGH QUALITY velocity stacks, HUGE 6 inch outer diamater TURBO FILTERS (largest filter for the G37 ftw), brackets, pcv, hoses, clamps, beautiful powdercoat, and welds that look BETTER than ARC. I've had an ARC intercooler for my CT9A Evolution, and these welds are way way more badass.
Please do remember that unique intakes like these are not cheap to hand make and weld. Now, good things always come in pairs. RELATING TO THE G37, WE DO HAVE DUAL INTAKES, so cost of everything is multiplied by two.
Hate it for it's price, but love it for its detailed quality. Thats what sets us apart from other manufactures. We will never compete with Stillen, Injen, JWT, Fujita, Invidia. We will compete with Zele, ARC, Mines, Top Secret ect.
We will continue to be loyal to the G37 market and design more products. We are here to be your friend for ANY questions you may have. Yes, we will even be Dr.Phil for you, just a show of our service.
Back to the topic, we are not planning on designing a full carbon fiber intake for the G37. We ARE able to create a carbon heat shield for these intakes. Although many of you would like that, those who do purchase these intakes will need to step forward with 50% deposit upon developing a dry carbon heat shield. Minimum order of 10 people needed.
The 350z/G35 vendors have stepped forward and are requesting Status Elite dry carbon for their vehicles. One project of which that is being discussed is the full dry carbon intake with a dry carbon intake box, still incorporating a dry carbon velocity stack. Your input on future products is graciously encouraged as seen on this thread.
STATUS ELITE products are 100% made in USA
Thanks for everyones interest and input,
Kevin

very well said Kevin. I'm glad you you wrote all that. The Phrase " YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR" applies to all your products. It is not the cheapest intake out there, but you sure get one of the best made, best looking, Not to mention, your the air filter, BIGGER IS BETTER lol .
Once i confirm the deal with my current intakes, i will be switching to yours for sure. I don't mind paying for something slightly higher than the the average if its worth it. Perfect example is the audio setup in my car. Expensive but worth every penny.
Now as for your carbon parts, it is the best made US DRY CARBON parts i've seen, it surely competes with the high end JDM dry carbon parts without the high end JDM PRICE
Now make more parts for our G
My wish list:
Carbon roof cap
Carbon side mirror caps
Carbon spoiler. (i got a couple of designs in mind)
Diffuser should be done soon right?? post some pics
I still need to talk to you about the Z parts
