anyone scammed by Dallas Hotrods?

[blindsk8er11]

i paid $500 using paypal for some tubular control arms and have gotten any control arms and the guy stopped communication with me.

[pugz]

i see him post regularly on htownshowscene and on streetsource.com see if you can pm him or get with paypal about it and get your money back

[dirty]

Sounds awful familiar

[minijdm95]

Damn bro this is just getting ugly'er I thought we are like family to many people getting scammed for damn parts!! And $500 aw man I would of been heated:mad:

[estetic]

he is on here isn't he? DHPMike I believe...I don't know that anyone has been 'scammed' - from what I have read he has ridiculous lead times (gets way backed up) and sucks at email/communication but everyone eventually gets there parts or refunds.

[david29]

If he is bad about email communication, I would call him if I were you.

[DroppedMitsu]

Well he is the one who used to run BYC(I'm sure people remember that co. and how a bunch of people had problems). Anyways, how long has it been since you ordered?

[1lownismo]

I got my yota uppers several years later and he told me he would send nissan uppers for the problem but never got them. He sold parts to guys on here and they got them within a very quick period but they also live close by. Im sure he worried when they would knock on his door. I do know I got every excuss from flying his kids across staye every weekend to new shop to behind and on and on

[blindsk8er11]

he said he shipped them and gave me a ups tracking number. i checked the number and it says the sticker has been printed and the shipping is paid for but the package has gotten to them. so im not sure yet. better then the other day though.

[alabama_lowlife]

I still don't understand why he doesn't build a set and sell them. Instead of taking the money and building up a backlog. If he can't keep up with demand just have a waiting list of people who are ready to pay instead of a list of pissed off people whose money he has already accepted.

[Jablue412]

good old mike white.....good luck getting your money or parts, look up barn yard customs, like someone else said earlier, on SSM sorry bro

[green97nissan]

[xgolferdude]

[thompsonhd97]

straight razor and lemon juice that fool!

Horrible business ethics , an knowing he can get away with it.

[green97nissan]

leme know if i can help. i can try to get some answers

[Krisko]

edit:

sent my previous message to him privately.. for now

[estetic]

krisko - check this guy out http://michiganmetalworks.com/ - I personally have not purchased anything but I have exchanged a few emails, this is where I am going when i decide to pull the trigger on UCA's. Haven't seen/heard a negative review yet.

His Jeebus joint arms lay out on some big rollers on a ton of other platforms, don't see why he couldn't hook up the 720.

I've seen his arms on my buddy's chevy. They are super beefy. Look good too. Those ball joints are nice too!

How about give me the number and I will find it. Whats the name on the order?

The rest of you commenting are completely wrong. Yes I used to own BYC and I have worked out the old orders. If ANYONE has an issue, please bring it to my attention. I have more then one email address and my cell phone number on my website. an email or a text will get right to me.

I did have email issues in September when my spam filter was maxed out but I still get texts.

i paid $500 using paypal for some tubular control arms and have gotten any control arms and the guy stopped communication with me.

Not true. I have never stopped communicating with anyone. I even communicate with a guy who has been cussing me up and down because I sent out an order that was not as old as his.

doesnt matter. email me at mike@dallashotrodparts.com, dallashotrodparts@yahoo.com, dallashotrodparts@gmail.com or text me at 214-498-4840, or pm me here, or on dfwminis.com

Sounds awful familiar

yea people jumping to a conclusion sure does sound familiar.

like 90% of the shit talkers on SSM did back in the day. Not a single fact from anyone. Not one pf them would answer any question I posted. they all just posted what they heard from a buddy. F that man!

out of the 5 shops that used to sell arms and closed owing people money how many came back to make it right????????? ME AND ONLY ME!!!!!!!!!@!!!

Damn bro this is just getting ugly'er I thought we are like family to many people getting scammed for damn parts!! And $500 aw man I would of been heated:mad:


There ya go, just assuming that someone got scammed!

why in the world would I come back, make all them old deals right then try to scam someone out of $500 are you kidding????

think!! that doesnt make sense on any level.

Its a simple communications problem. I will handle it. I wasnt even aware that I had anyone that did not have their parts.

[DHPmike]

he is on here isn't he? DHPMike I believe...I don't know that anyone has been 'scammed' - from what I have read he has ridiculous lead times (gets way backed up) and sucks at email/communication but everyone eventually gets there parts or refunds.


Yes I am on here and its been quiet lately so I havent checked anything here in a while. I will check more often.

I used to have lead times of 8 weeks. If you call that ridiculous then I am and so is SD because his and Candos are just as long.

Mine is down to 6 weeks on the longest wait times and less than 2 weeks on other stuff.

I have Nissan D21, 720/620 uppers in stock all the time in tube and flat plate so there should be no wait anytime.

I also stopped taking orders on new stuff and I build parts and sell them. I have about 4 or 5 other orders where people wanted to put down a down payment but thats it.

I do know I got every excuss from flying his kids across staye every weekend to new shop to behind and on and on

If I owe you parts, email me and I will make it right.

Yea I used to fly to Wyoming to get my kids 6 times a year. Yes I moved my shop.

Now my kids have lived with me for 2 years and I moved my shop to the 54,000 sg ft building where I work with full blessing of the owner who likes having my equipment here.

yea I cam back and now I am capable of any parts.

We have a waterjet that will cut a 5 ft x 12 ft piece.

[DHPmike]

he said he shipped them and gave me a ups tracking number. i checked the number and it says the sticker has been printed and the shipping is paid for but the package has gotten to them. so im not sure yet. better then the other day though.


post the number here and I will solve it..

That's EXACTLY what I do. Sometimes people wont take no for an answer and insist on sending funds. That's why I came up with the down payment page.

Its been working because I build 2 of each item I get an order for and shelf the extra one. Its helping me get my lead times down under 6 weeks.

[DHPmike]

good old mike white.....good luck getting your money or parts, look up barn yard customs, like someone else said earlier, on SSM sorry bro


Yet another person who has no clue. Look at whatever you want. If your smart you will see 90% of them asshats were not even customers and the ones who were were lying half the time. every time I posted a question to bust them lying they wouldnt answer.

yea, I did the right thing and I am still.

so your post is 100% wrong

[DHPmike]

straight razor and lemon juice that fool!


come on, the address is 11567 Hillguard rd, Dallas, 75243. just walk right in and ask for Mike. I will be the one in all black Dickies.

come by after 3 when the other guys in the shop are off and its just me. Ill be glad to take whatever you have got.

[DHPmike]

Horrible business ethics , an knowing he can get away with it.


clueless. did you just feel like posting? why not post something usefull?

You know nothing about my business or my ethics or anything else except the 90% lies you read in some other forum.

[DHPmike]

I've seen his arms on my buddy's chevy. They are super beefy. Look good too. Those ball joints are nice too!


And as per our agreement I will be reworking Kriskos arms to lay whatever wheel he wants.

I also have Uniballs Krisko and I can even do them in flat plate.

Please explain to these guys who dont know me.

[DHPmike]

Ok guys there they are, all the responses to whatever has been said.

I will check this more often.

anyone that has an issue just get with me.

to the guy that started the thread, please show me some emails where you contacted me and I did not reply. If you still dont have your parts just get with me and I will settle it.

[alabama_lowlife]

Mike, I'm glad to see you found this and you're taking care of it, whatever the cause.

At this point, I see no reason for anybody else to weigh in on this other than the OP and Mike. I'm not going to lock it so that the 2 of them can work it out here and we can all see the resolution. HOWEVER, I'll be deleting anything else that gets added. We've all had our chance to speak and Mike his chance to respond.
