When I called Tein they are an authorized distributor but that is a relatively new account with Tein. Everywhere else I looked for this set-up it was $750-900 which was why I went with them.

*Edit: On Brotherz' defense, Xavier did PM me, I just got it.*

Too many horror stories from people i'm friends with for me to deal with brothers. I can only count on one hand how many shops in the tampa area I would buy from. Next time try Jdm ups for your needs.

^ I never complained on price of parts. What I complained about was the complete lack of customer service.

yumm. hmm. Screw all the damn shops. I only trust a few, and I would probably never reccommend a shop to anyone.

PM-FL, Bluemoon, CRT and one other I can't think of the name.

bad customer service, but you didn't get cheated. You ended up with a good deal with a little hassle.

The bottom line is if you buy something from a shop you should be able to go to the shop and get your item. Good deal or not what happened was b.s. Why on gods green earth would a shop have something delivered that was cod anyways. My question is, why didn't the shop write a check since they had her money already. It's a bunch of crap if you ask me.

If It were me, I'd much rather wait an extra day or two to save up to 250$. Why would you be so hard on the shop ESPECIALLY when you're saving some good coin?

I mean, yea..UPS sucks balls, everyone knows that. Add in a little confusion into the mix and you're bound to get bad customer service.

200$ savings > 'not so great' customer service.



Oh BTW are you Jewish? $24.06 isn't that bad, I've paid $1,200 dollars before for COMPLETELY shitty engine work.
