So I ordered the carbon fiber lip spoiler from ebay a while ago and still no spoiler. I emailed the seller days ago and he finally wrote back saying...

"Hello
The item has not been send out yet. We got the item in but waiting for a Safe BOX to package the item so it will not break during transportation. Please allow us to get the box and we will send you the item to you asap~

Thank you"

This is unacceptable...... :thumbsdown: no email prior to me contacting them and a lame " SAFE BOX" excuse. Is there even such a thing as a safe box? Something is not right here. Has anyone who ordered from the get their spoiler or had problems with them in the past? Just giving a heads up for those of you who have ordered.

Here is the spoiler in question....

I was about to purchase it as it looks pretty nice but ended up purchasing the HARTGE front lip instead. Hopefully you will get it and have it installed before you go to the 6/14 meeting.

That was the whole idea ...hopefully it comes through. I just installed my carbon fiber pillars today...looks amazing. It's all comming together. Just waiting for the tires to come in and I'll install the rims.

He is correct though. I have been waiting for it for a week now. Apparently it just got in....it is still false advertisement to say next day shipment.

I ordered mine last week and they sent me a tracking number through dhl. But still no lip and the dhl tracking number does not give an estimated delivery day or anything...hopefully itll arrive today?

ok i just called dhl and they said they have only recieved shipping data...not even the lip...is what you other guys got too? just a tracking number with data so far...they even sent me a message saying it had been shipped which apparently not true..they are being a bit shady..im worried already. I sent them a couple messages asking about the shipping on the lip and a couple questions.

I just sent them an email a few min ago about tracking numbers and the DHL shipper. Haven't heard back from them....Anyone that lives out in California and knows the address can stop by and see what kind of operation these guys are running?? Maybe even inquire for us and also let them know that their business will be damaged by their ineptness. We have the power to hurt these guys in the pocket if we all band together. This kind of practice is unacceptable :thumbsdown:
