Varis Product

LostPanda · 02-16-2019, 05:34 PM

Anyone have any experience with ordering Varis products? Ordered a diffuser a year ago and was quoted 4-6 months. If you had Varis products how long did it take for you to get it? I'm tired of getting this run around bullshit from my vendor.

Cancel the order with the CC/Payment Provider. I learned this with another vendor on the previous car. Held my order w. run around excuses for months. Called PayPal and put a hold on his account - he finally shipped and stopped answering my calls/emails.

These companies need to understand how to operate businesses correctly, and to stop playing with people's damn money.

Ain't nobody got time for that.

Ordering and receiving parts from overseas company’s like Varis is very difficult these days. go through PP get your money back.

M3anest · 02-17-2019, 10:36 PM

This is why I use IND. They're amazing.

ShakeNBake · 02-19-2019, 04:51 PM

I would suggest ordering Varis parts through Bulletproof Automotive.

I've seen some pretty good products from my local shop that custom orders Varis products. (also hosted in Hot Version)

I can ask them about overseas shipment if you want.

BayE30 · 02-20-2019, 10:22 AM

Varis can take up to 1yr to get any products in your hands here, its very typical of them.

Kyrix1st: I'd greatly appreciate it if you can. No one is giving me any answer as of now.

SFCM3: I understand it can take a year, but it is about a year now to date with no confirmation or anything. Everyone and a bulletproof rep said 4-6 months. So wtf is going on?

i had a similar experience in the past. its not the vendors fault, they are at the mercy of Varis ridiculously slow turn-around time. Just have the vendor refund you, and move on to another brand.

ShakeNBake · 02-20-2019, 03:58 PM

Who did you order through? I was quoted 3-4 months and it was at my door in 2 months.

amrazM · 02-20-2019, 05:45 PM

Ordering a GT-Haus product is no better let’s Be honest here.

Thru a friend/local shop (reputable). Idk, just never had to wait more than a year for a car part.. a lot of shit happens in a year, but to produce a diffuser, get outta here. Shit it stupid.

amrazM · 02-20-2019, 11:31 PM

Just to note Varis Japan is staffed by 14 people.

Which diffuser have you ordered? Prices differ whether it is a system or skirt and by also by carbon fiber pattern.

They say it will take 1.5 to 2 months to produce so looking at around 3 months total until it gets to your doorstep.

I ordered this lower tray.

Ah, so no diffuser on top of the exhaust.

Checked with Varis Japan, and since production is on order, it doesn't make a difference. (2 months max)

I suspect your local shop hasn't even placed an order yet or is waiting for other Varis orders so they can have it shipped altogether for cheaper price.

kyrix1st · 02-21-2019, 08:34 AM

Some things to add..

http://www.vrs-aero.com/bmw/m-series...tem/index.html

They have 2 types carbon fiber material and 2 types of weave patterns: VSDC (Varis Semi Dry Carbon) and regular carbon fiber products, with twilled or plain weave patterns. (4 combinations total)

E92 M3's CFRP roof uses plain pattern, so I think it's best to go with plain pattern.

I bet you're right, I know they also have a carbon body kit and a few other things, probably shipping it all together... ugh. I also ordered it in oem 1x1 weave. If its not, oh well. Its going under the car anyways, no one will know if they know what theyre looking for.

phantasticphan · 02-21-2019, 09:33 AM

Get your money back, I think someone on this forum has one for sale...i'm not sure I could wait a year for one

I might be selling my diffuser soon. However, not sure if I want to risk shipping it to Indiana..

leemik · 05-20-2019, 03:33 PM

I ordered both the Varis upper and lower diffuser.. It took 8 months from order to delivery but I also got an email from Yahagi-san of Varis apologizing for the delay..

Banana Hammock · 05-20-2019, 03:41 PM

I ordered my diffuser last February and it arrived in April of this year. From what I understand, they work in batches. They'll do one run of diffusers then switch to something else. Because there's only one authorized distributor for them in the US it will be slow.
