Gels is so humble and soft spoken. But let it be known this man launched a wheel brand, designed wheels, brought them to life, has multiple videos over a million views teaching enthusiasts, and lead multiple teams to be successful in the aftermarket industry. This dude is so damn smart, and funny. Gels this shit is hard as hell but I KNOW you have what it takes to be successful in anything you set your mind to. I’m here to help however I can, and can’t wait to see what we can do. Thank you for everything at Fitment. You taught me so much and truly were my partner in everything. Wouldn’t have been there as long as I was without you.

I think I speak for a lot of people when I say it's really gratifying to see all of you guys leave. Regardless of the positive things you have all said about FI, it's very obvious to the rest of us that they have changed drastically in the last two years, and are now seeing the consequences of undervaluing, overworking, and undercompensating the people that got them to where they are today. Small businesses that grow that quickly, don't know how to handle things when that growth plateaus, and push that hardship onto their employees. It's awesome to see all of you free to truly do your own things finally. It'll be really cool to see what this does to the Wisconsin youtuber community as a whole.

I wrote put Alex, Dakota and Gels in more videos! You guys made Fitment industries what it is today! You made Fitment By enthusiasts for enthusiasts and THAT'S what made sales! We can get wheels tires and suspension pretty much anywhere but we chose fitment because it was people like us doing it!

You guys really did do a fantastic job on the educational front with the vids at FI. The dives into wheel brand history, the So You Want series, looking into new wheel designs or companies, the details of how to achieve good fitment, all of it. Yeah, the educational aspect was what kept me coming back and I’m very thankful for that. I know we all learned something out of the past years of FI. You did a great job mate…best of luck to you out there in your future endeavors!

I wish the best of success to anyone who tries to make it on their own, at the same time it seems like everyone there for the first few years thought that all your friends worked there and it was all cool until you realized that at the end of the day it’s still a business and because of that you lost interest in what you thought fitment was. I was the same way at my old job at my local bmw dealer.

I literally just saw Dakotas vid last night now I am seeing that Gels you have left as well. Alex, Kota and Gels were staples at fitment industries, you guys made that brand what it is today. The boots on the ground interacting with the community! There is a time to move on for us all. Fitment has changed. Stay true to yourself and stay focused on what is next...whatever that may be. I recently did the same in my career. We all are rooting for you guys. Gels you are the man. Don't let anyone tell you differently. Godspeed to you sir.

Hell yeah brother. There came a point in my life where plodding away in a body shop was really dragging me down and making me start to hate anything automotive related. I had to make a similar leap into an adjacent field of PDR where it's a new challenge and easier on my body. I now enjoy body work again and have picked up my long forgotten project cars.

Ngl Gels handled his farewell separation video from FI a lot better than Dakota did. But damn Dakotas farewell video was something else. You could tell Dakota loved his job an people he met along the way during those 4 years. 😢 my dude was really sad. But wish you well Gels, you have my support. Id say you Alex an Dakota start your own business or youtube channel. That be amazing.

What an opportunity Fitment was for you, and frankly I am quite jealous! You were a HUGE character for the company and they are truly losing a lot of talent with you leaving. You are taking a leap in the right direction with your new experiences and connections. I am greatly looking forward to seeing where you go from here, Gels! I haven’t known you long, but I already know you are going to make a hell of an impact with your new adventures.
