GTS has a reputation all of it's own compared to KPD/KS/GBS

I had the same shit with these guy's. In short words: ordered some stuff, they delivered something wrong, phoned them, mailed them -> after three months i gave up.
I work now with KITSPARES (GBS) and they are fantastic !!

They attend most kit car shows - you could always come in person and let them know how you feel about their levels of customer service.

Nobody is perfect and nearly every kit firm is run by enthusiasts rather than businessmen, besides a businessman wouldn't bother with kit car firm as it's more a hobby that kinda nearly pays it's way. I made sure( or tried to at least) that I made things 110% and if I was late the quality was worth waiting for Yeah there are some that churn out endless piles of junk and charge top dollar for it but that applies to any other industry.
I have my own gripe with KPD anyway they copy stuff

not sure what the crack is but i tried to order stuff a few time s from them and no joy just no reply to emails phone calls and everything
thay where part of gbs but now kpd have split and gbs have kitspares who have been pritty efficent with me so im giving them the thumbs up
richard and his dad are very helpful and there are plans to do allsorts of parts for locost and roadsters in the future not just gbs stuff (just real busy with all the new zero stuff at the minute) so it would be a good idea to keep a eye out
