Lemon FRS in Tampa FL???

[BlaineWasHere]

The dealer I got mine at has a 5AD with a billion (might as well be) dollar mark-up sitting on the lot right now and it looks like shit. The lip looks like it's uneven and the whole thing looks like it'll blow off if it went over 55MPH.

I'm mostly amazed that the dealership is willing to risk a lifelong valued customer over a few bucks on a markup on a newly hyped car. If the customer didn't want the body kit don't sell it to him! I just wish they'd do the right thing.

I thought I was going to see a lemon yellow frs! Maybe with a pearl style shimmer. That would be sweet!

This is the best I can do.

Thats good that they offered to buy the car back. Btw they changed the lemon law this year (dont know if its in effect) making it some stupid number like 10 times you have to come in for the same problem.

I had my 350Z lemon law'd back in 2003. From what I remember you have to have a problem that the dealer couldn't fix after 3 tries and this problem has to be something that could cause harm to you if not fixed. I had the manual transmission replaced 3 times (never got a good one) and a whole other host of other problems and that was fairly easy for the consumer lawyer to get me my money back.

I some how doubt this aesthetic problem will get you your money back but good luck. You probably should contact a consumer lawyer and see what they think.

Damn, sucks to hear I'm not the only one with multiple botched installs.

Hey OP, you should have sued Toyota.

I just spoke to Young on the phone with Five Axis. I work in the customer service field of financial services and Young was AMAZING. 5AD stands by their products and work and I am more than confident that the dealership botched the install and 5AD will help them make it right. I am going to take pics tomorrow if/when I get my FRS back.

Five:AD has the best customer service on the planet IME. These guys really care about their product. Just watch out for the dealership and whatever you do only let the original dealer that did the install do work on your installation issues with the kit. My situation with the install on the kit is very sensitive right now due to multiple dealerships getting involved but Five:AD has helped make sure this gets resolved. Good luck dude. When the kit is on right you have to admit it is a very sick looking kit.

Digital_assassin - your thread is what made me call them. I wish I had more pics of this whole process. The really tough part was that I didn't initially want the kit but really wanted the car so I "settled" for it with the car. Now I love it, I just wish it was installed by someone with better knowledge or at 5AD. The dealership has it now (over a week total) and we will see if they can get this ironed out. If not, I'm going to see if they will negotiate on some of it's price and let me go to another facility to repair the install.

Mine was almost EXACTLY where your photos in your thread were. Skirts and spoiler were the worst and the edges of the front and rear not attached properly. I dealt with Young who is from right outside of Tampa here so he was awesome and very helpful.

You were required to buy this car?
