Garage
I had a bookshelf in the garage fall on the OEM front bumper cover so I decided to order CC 86-R Style cover and start the after market body conversion I had been wanting to do. Had the new cover drop shipped to the auto body shop. Close to $200 to have that done in addition to the price of the unit.

After it arrived the body shop gave me a call and asked me to come take a look at what was delivered because they felt the amount of work it would take to clean up and fit to the body was not worth the additional expense.

I was shocked when I saw the piece in person. Corners of the intake area were cracked. About an entire gallon of bondo would be required to fill in areas that could not be sanded out because the pot holes from the molding process were just too deep. The mesh screen that was very poorly tacked on had ripples and bends across the entire surface.

I was livid and the body shop was disappointed because they were really looking forward to having pics of this car on their "success wall" with the new lip installed.

Anyway, the body shop was great as they went above and beyond in assisting me with getting that item shipped back to the crooks that sold it in the first place. Never again will I deal with that distributor.

Curse you Greddy for not having your kit in stock, lol...
