My opinion.
1.) They are a legit company. You have joined recently so you may not have had a chance to read through posts, but RPI is one of the most reputable and highly regarded vendors out there and an official vendor of this board supporting it not with just product but with technical info.
2.) They don't collect ANYTHING from ANY of the customers until all 5 orders are confirmed.
3.) You don't pay until the headers are completed and are about to ship.
4.) With regards to having them on stock, go look up how much BMW wants for stock header cores and you'll see why they are not kept in stock.
5.) Your concern is understandable, but in this case please note there is an endless stream of your fellow board members that will vouch for RPI.
6.) How do I know? Mine just finished production.

Goodluck giat!

Haha I will never doubt RPI as a legit organisation catered to providing awesome service to its customers. Yep I plan to get one as soon as possible! Post some videos and pictures before and after installing the headers! I'd like to see the difference in the sound and character of it!

I skipped the coating as the timing worked out well to
install it the same time as everything else...

If you find a stock set to send in it is much cheaper but Eloy can give you actual price.

I echo AngelSlayer's comments. People need to be careful throwing comments around without knowing what they are talking about. My RPI headers were completed last Wednesday and that is when I paid. All Eloy took was my word of mouth. RPI/Eloy took the additional customer service step of dropping them off at Southbay Autohaus who will install them today. I dropped off my car at Autohaus this morning where Qais and his good folks will install my headers.

Plenty of good choices out there but for me, RPI is the way to go.

Can't wait to get them back from Jet Hot I wonder if they got them yet.

GT's a lot louder in my opinion. Joe Trinity has that combo. You mean buy a new section 1 (the diff between GT and GTS)?
