Ok guys just a warning guys about Prodigy customs . I paid them 14k AUD two years ago (around 11.5k USD)for parts and have received nothing....actually I had some minitubs drop shipped from DSE after I screamed and ranted for 3 months. This is just my worse nightmare, they have basically killed any passion I had to rebuild a muscle car. I have been putting off getting my car sprayed by a friend of mine for the last 18 months and now he is leaving his job and moving interstate which sucks because he is one of the best spray painters around. Frank promised me that my parts would be on the next container and make it in time to be painted. I just got another email from Frank after I had to prompt him for the 100th time on the status of my parts that yet again they will be delayed. So I have missed the boat again along with any chance of getting my car painted by my friend. I really did not want to post this but I am so goddam angry right now and just want to let loose on every swear word I can think of. I am confused as to why I would be treated like this?

Well, its pretty clear judging by the lack of feedback regarding Prodigy Customs and the fact that there was a "Prodigy rocks again" immediately after my post that I am clearly in the wrong arena...mmm

Well I am literally screwed now, I have 14k riding with this guy. Will I get a refund let alone a response from Frank who knows. Now that Prodigy has been removed as a sponsor a have virtually no leverage to either get my parts or a refund from Frank. He has not sent the parts to my shipping agent in California. I call him just about every day and just get an answering machine and no return call at all. I have sent at least one email every day for over two years. I am at a loss what to do. This is my worst nightmare...I have a shell of a car sitting on a rotisserie that I had burrowed over two years ago....did I mention over two years while this guy is gallivanting all over the country busy working on other projects, when he should be sending overdue parts to me. Makes me sick to the stomach on how this has turned out...

I received an email from Frank, and he has stated that he is not out to rip me or anyone else off. He is trying to clear a backlog of work. He has promised that my parts will be sent by the 20th Sep, I am relieved in one way but still weary as he has broken promises before...I suppose we will see come the 20th. Thanks to all the guys who provided advise and support via pm. I will keep you posted pending outcome...cheers.

Well once again I have to post about Prodigy Customs. After two months of trying to call and email Frank, he will not reply. I still do not have all my parts and I am trying to get a refund which I do not think I will get. He owes me $4620 in parts. This company is a Joke and the people running it should be held accountable for what they are doing. I am furious at this guy and dredd the day if I ever came face to face with him, what else can i say...

Hi all, does anyone know where Frank Serafine from Prodigy Customs has been for the last two months, he owes me a 67 Camaro Detroit Speed Engineering front end kit and 31 spline differential center section, both worth $4620. He will not reply to my emails or phone calls. So if some here does know him can they please get word through to him. I am assuming he is out to rip me off which will kill me as I have a have car built except these parts and no more funds. This guy has almost caused the break up of my family due to the financial and emotional strain he has put on us. He obviously does not care who he steps on...

For the record, Frank has not been a sponsor of this site for quite some time, and he has not logged in since July 27th, 2012.
