Artworks Dewa?

Postby CatchyD » Wed Mar 12, 2014 1:37 am

So I am not sure if I am just not looking hard enough but...
I cannot find anyone who sells Artworks Dewa products. I saw them at rev9, miataroadster and a few other places around the web but they one week just disappeared off the sites.
I went to the homepage of AWD and went to their resellers tab and it directed me to miataroadster, however when I go there, there is no sign of any AWD products.

Did something happen to AWD that I didn't catch or is there somewhere that still sells their products that I just haven't found yet?
I liked quite a few of their products such as the HVAC panel they offer but how am I meant to get one if nobody sells them anymore, if they really are gone I guess I'll have to go with revlimiter or try another brand on rev9 or miataroadster.

Any hints would be appreciated,
Thanks

David

Dewa-san passed away earlier this year and the business has since closed. :(

See here -> clicky.

I was very sad to hear of the news as I loved his passion and this was apparent in his products. I still have a set of AWD gauges that I purchased back in 1998/99 and is still installed in my NA6. A true Roadster enthusiast that serviced a niche market in the after market parts world. A great loss as far as I am concerned. :cry:

That is actually very sad to hear :(

His products were all quite amazing and were certainly quality products. Is sad that I was unable to actually purchase one of his products brand new, but hopefully I can get one second hand.
Much respect to this man.

Thank you for informing me about why I could not find any Dewa products.

My your wallet forgive me, but keep an eye out here http://www.astinagt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10668 or contact Rupewrecht and see if he can find what you are looking for.

That's terrible news.

You could always go with an RS Products Classic panel and get Revlimiter (Adam) to create some gauge faces...He did mine and they look great.

It is also worth checking out the interior bits from Jass Performance, they have some nice Stainless Steel panels/covers.

Really happy I decided to grab a set of the vent rings for my nb, beautifully made and gorgeous to look at.
