horrible weekend for me and the 350
its not been the best week for mods this past week with my c350 lets begin:
~ I ordered titanium tips and magnaflow mufflers about 13 days ago and planned on getting them installed this weekend, the mufflers and xpipe arrived but the tips never did... i called the company from which i ordered and they said fedex either lost/damaged then and theyll be giving me my money back within the next 2 weeks so now im out $200 and had to spend another $200 to order from a different company.
~ I had ordered a HC syle lip from Gary@suverren or however you spell it, i have been waiting for months for these to come back in stock and finally when they do, i jumped on it and ordered it. finally it arrived and today i open the box to see my beautiful CF lip and to very disappointment its a POS!!! it was all destroyed, in horrible condition scrapes all on the bottom and it was cracked all the way in half only being held together because it was CF, so at this point im livid since ive been wanting this lip for ever!!!! but what can I do....i sent him and email and PM and shocker...no reply
~ this is the icing on the cake, after finding out and cooling down from the lip incident im on my way to ft. lauderdale/miami for the AMG meet about 30mins into the ride my tire warning pops up on the rash i pull over to check them out and there's a huge nail in my tire, i took my car to a local garage to get it patched only to receive the news that it unpatchable.....awesome.
so yeaa FML this weekend blows...

Did you just send him a PM and email today? If so, it is the weekend, give it a couple of days. Was it damaged in shipping, or just made badly?
The reason I ask, is a client of ours was pleased with him before, and we have recommended a few to him. Want to keep on top of things, but want to be fair too. Things do happen from time to time.

Huh, funny you should say that cause Im going through a very similar ordeal with another sponsor who has yet to contact me regarding my diffuser. Lemme know how it goes, Suvneer was great with me when I ordered my HC lip.
