That's a bit of an understatement...as I recall it they were frustrated and angry, leading them to RIP the stuff off in a huff and order the real Shadowline stuff!

Hmmmm looks pretty good. I'm sure it probably a fraction of the cost and time to put it on, but what happens when you wash the car haha.
