Default Aim industries good or bad?

Looking at buying a few things from aim and wondering how their products are.
Rollpan, tailgate handle relocator, and hangers. Input on any of these will be appreciated.

You know some people have had issues with them. I've used them once, and I had no problems. I got the stamped steel rollpan, tire relocator, hidden hitch and flip down plate thingy. It was here on time, it was all there and it all fit. My friend bought some mirrors from them too, and had no issues.

yea i threw their article from a mag in front of BigKID and he about slapped me. i was wondering what the deal was till he explained they suck at most of the stuff they have. however, their hood prices and stuff vanilla gorrilla mentioned about the roll pan and hidden hitch sounds good to me. their hoods probably suck major *** tho.

I haven't heard anything "good" about them if that answers your question.

Don't worry about their springs. I've had them on for a while and never had a problem out of them.

yeah they fabricate everything from scratch. all the stuff they sell there, they make. I have never had any issues from them. I would not buy anything mechanical from them. But rollpans and everything else they are pretty good
