BUYERS BEWARE - MODE CARBON are a bunch of SCAMMERS

It's unfortunate it had to come to this point, but just wanted to give a heads up to the community and for anyone that are looking to buy products from MODE CARBON. They are a forum sponsor on here and should be banned immediately considering the practices they are doing to the members on here. He has already been banned as a sponsor on the BMW and Audi forums due to his shady actions with that community.

I ordered parts 6 months ago - constant broken promises, missing parts, nearly impossible to communicate with - just a bad business that is taking money from people and not delivering. Once finally receiving one of the parts I ordered, half the parts were missing to install it and complete the set. Upon receiving my ed1 front lip - that is advertised as direct plug and play with OEM mounting points/holes - it was indeed not plug and play at all and my shop had to modify it to make it fit.

It has been a major headache and waste of time for me, and I encourage others to not do business with this shady company. Excuse after excuse, no promises met.

There is multiple threads on the Audi and BMW forums, as well as his facebook page where members are not receiving their parts.

Just wanted to give a heads up to the community. Moderators should investigate his actions and the multiple members he has screwed over.
