Yes, it's been for sale for a few years, apparently no buyers now the owner wants to retire.

tough business to sell with how good sleds are now a days.

skinz makes great products back in the XP chassis days every sled off the showroom floor would get a pair of skinz running boards.

 

[NoBrakes!]

They're product has been amazing over the years and with the names of the names using their hoods, panels etc on new "builds" I didnt see this coming. Sad

Burandt or Adams should step up and take it over.

I've had several of their products. Seat and rear bumper on my Nytro. Seat on my Viper. Hood on my XM. Boards on my XP.

I love the panel knee pads by skinz - really save the knees when I decide to check the headlight outta nowhere

I had some issues with fitment on my helium hood. But Jeff emailed me and sent a video of where to cut. Great customer service

I wonder if they’re gonna post that auction up online?…I don’t really need anything but discount parts are always a good time lol

retirement sale.... good on the owner for letting go of work and enjoying life and his rewards for hard work!

So skinz dot com website is a bit weird. Skinz ca website looks operational. Skinz instagram looks pretty busy with showing parts “they” are producing. Seems like operational to me. Anyone know the deal? Someone bought the name and is getting shops to make the parts?

 

[Rjjtcross8]

I see Burandt is still selling and promoting a lot of skinz components. So clearly they are still in some kind of existence

 

[MK4TDI]

Maybe they moved out of chit hole California

 

[t300]

Actually yeah their instagram says they are in Glendale Arizona . No post on changes or who took over.

The whole aftermarket industry has taken a chit kicking these days Manufacturers have really stepped up and the out of box products are refined to the point most of the STUFF is bling Nothing better than someone asking what have you done to your sled and you can say SHE IS STOCK

Fixed it for you

Skinz products are top shelf… bumpers a-arms hoods running boards etc etc I’m sure the company has done very well over the year

I love cookies…..

excellent example of this would be factory turbos.
