so does that mean since you clearly stated you could get a refund if you wanted to change your mind, he could have also changed his mind about selling the part to you. im sure you wont make that mistake again

its funny how you brought his name up because i had troubles with him before. i actually bought the lip kit from him in june. i've waited for him to ship it out to me. it took a month for me to receive and the thing is i got the package with the side skirts practically open and i looked inside my front and rear lip was missing and since the package was open i was like okay someone stole my flippin' front and rear lip. and i asked if he sent me 1 box or 2 boxes. he said one. so then i filed a claim. they said i was only suppose to get one box and so obviously a box thats half opened when i received it you would think that your stuff was missing. so fedex picked it up to do an investigation on my parts. one week later fedex dropped off my front and rear lip and fedex shipped back the side skirts back to him. i tried getting a hold of him to send it back to me. i even imed him called him and everything no response and i got a hold of him on AIM he said he shipped it out again awhile ago. and i told him i needed it by august 12th for a show that my car was gonna be in. and i asked him at the end of july if he shipped out the side skirts again at the end of june and i received it august 15th. so i didnt have it on time for my show i was so mad and i had another show on august 17th and i got it all painted, wetsanded, buffed and everything the day of the show. it was ridiculous.
