iKona is not a buisness, it's a fraud. He deserves to be shot.
And to think, I am getting ready to deploy to Afghanistan again to defend little f***s like iKona. Douche bag doesn't realize how good he's got it. In another country, he would be dead. No doubt about it.

yeah he started to post up some business on the yaris forums and everyone's like... look at scion life, don't order from him.
so apparently he's taking some new customers before sending everyone's shiz back to them.

From I-Kona's site:
"Some companies sacrifice quality for speed.... That wont fly in i-Kona. Quality is not an option, its a must."
Besides that being funny, shouldn't it be that wont fly "at" i-Kona???
idk...
lolz at false statements

^There was a pretty juicy thread about iKONA, but the site admin deleted it. No one is doing business with him over there.

^Read for yourself.

^Tiburon owners are getting the run around as well it seems. Quoted from iKONA: "Bump! I apologize about the huge delay in shipments. Ill have a boat load of orders shipped next week guaranteed!"
And then again... "Adn t everybody els i apologzie about the huge delay in plugs being shipped out. I wasn't too happy with the molds that were created so I made a new cast and am building new stock, Ill for sure have a whole bunch shipped this new week"
Quoted by a tiburon member "yeh i paid ages ago as well just wondering whats going on i keep checking back here to find out"

^Quote: "Hey, anyone hear from ikona lately? I ordered the plugs when the first batch came out and I STILL haven't received them. I PM'ed him a couple of times and haven't heard back from him for a while... I wanna give him the benefit of the doubt... but it's been almost a month..."
Reply: "Yeah, I ordered mine in late July and just received it. They did respond to my e-mails, but the time delay among other things didn't exactly impress me."

^iKONA's thread was apparently deleted for some shady reason or another. Quote: i tried to pm iKONA but nothing went through. Im interested in the plug for my nhbp door handle. I guess the thread was deleted seeing i cant find it anywhere. It was about 2 weeks old.

^Quote: "About the keyhole plugs: Mr Original Poster hasn't returned to answer any questions, has he? I'm no longer interested. Strike me from the list.?"
Quote:"If Mr. Original Poster re-materializes with answers, that's fine. If he doesn't, that's fine by me too. Would be interesting to know how they work, but whatever..."
Quote: "he needs to show his threads on the scion and mitsu websites that he mention in his og post."
iKONA's REPLY: "I'll post references later on after I get back from working in the shop." (He never posted references, by the way
Quote: "He is not a very introspective kind of guy and only cares when his business either has a bad reputation or before he has a hold of your money.
He will also place blame on you for no reason at all. With him you get automated emails saying all the right stuff but when you contact the guy there is no one home.
John if you like to refute its perfectly fine but keep in mind that you have an army of angry people that want to warn others of their experience that I will bring this thread attention to.
I don't care about places where I am not selling but because I am not only a vendor but also member here and because you got into my business I have no other option then to say something about it because its food on my table.
I have so far kept out of your business and will continue to do so as long as you don't mention me as I really don't want my name mixed up with yours.
You are your worst enemy John and I wish you well in how you conduct your future business but first get it right where you first started then venture out"
Quote: "Count me out" "Thanks for the heads up"
