Open any thread they have. It's full of non-stop problems. I think I read SOMEWHERE at one point they were going to sell the business. I hope so because they're the only ones with designs I wanted to buy.

Run away, they are a disaster, I was one of the few that actually received some parts after non stop BS and taking 10 times longer than I was told, then quality and fitment was poor and then they wouldn't respond or adhere to their return policy and had to do a chargeback. They just contacted me 1 year later and asked for their parts back - the funny thing is I said sure as I still have them packed and ready from a year ago when I tried tor return and they are even unresponsive on their own requests. I told them to send me a return label and it took them many weeks before they responded and asked where to send it and then never heard back.
EDIT: Removed info on Boca Design, see below.

I would try Boca-Design, they have mostly the same selection of stuff and from research seems better quality and their prices are much better too. They are out of germany but sell through a company in Florida https://www.tuning-empire.com/catego...lass-w204.html

BTW stay away from Boca too as I had a nightmare with them, sent wrong parts twice, then quality was awful and the owner wouldn’t give me a return label to send them back. I wasn’t sending them back at my cost (which when quoted was the price of the parts, the owner had their own contract with the shipping company so could have easily sent a return label at no cost to him or no where near what I was quoted. Awful company.

You know Mode Carbon is Boca Design don’t you? Boca make all the parts & Mode just put their own name on them.
