I would believe it was an original hatch.

And yes none of this was disclosed. And it's hard to believe some of the stuff he did say was actually true as well.

But again at least so far the stuff I have found in the big picture doesn't really matter as I wasn't going to keep or use in the end anyways.

Just sucks as I had planned to sell some of this stuff to pay for upgrades, but doesn't look like it's going to be possible now.

That should be a very good Father’s Day present for you or whatever you wanna call it, pretty big order! Excited to hear if you like the doors. Is his price on the website per door or for both?

Price is for Both doors and Sergio doesn't always follow his listed prices, seems you get discounts for ordering multiple parts.

As an fyi.. I got such a big order because of what happened with my last hood, and we came to an agreement on compensation.

But he made good on his word, went above an beyond with compensation, and shipped my parts with out me paying a dime at the time of shipment (paypal converted my money to pesos, I didn't have an option to change it to dollars, so he refunded me my money which takes 3-5 business days) which would have caused me to miss the pickup as it happened the day of.. but Sergio said not to worry and shipped it anyways)

But basically my end of it was - to do an honest review on all the parts on tuners which in had already posted I was going to do last month, and as a return gesture for Sergio making good on his word and offering more then i asked for, I offered to put at least 1 sticker on each of my cars.

I got the V2 hood free and I got my center console free, which I also had him custom make as I wanted the radio area filled in so I could mount more racing stuff. As well as pretty discounted pricing on all the remaining parts.

So update on my carbonetics stuff.
The shipment arrived in columbia last friday.

So I called monday to setup a delivery time since I hadn't heard anything.

And they said the pallet with my stuff wasn't on the truck when it arrived in columbia and they are trying to track it down.

They said it was last scanned in at their charlotte warehouse but that was the last time anyone's seen it.

I've called 3 days in a row now and no luck.

I've contacted Sergio on the matter but so far all he's said us keep him updated.

How long should I give them or Sergio to find my stuff before filing a claim?

Who's the freight carrier?

Sounds like he's a standup guy and if things are coming from out of the country, there can easily be customs delays. I'd hold off a bit.

That dash looks awesome! I bet Rau would've killed for that back in the day.

Freight carrier is YRC... he used uship.com

The tracking said it arrived in columbia SC.. last friday.

And when I called they said the truck showed up,but my pallet of parts wasn't on it.

So they were going to have to call all the other warehouses it stopped at to see if it was left at one of them. (California, dallas, atlanta, charlotte, columbia)

Their system said the last place the pallet was scanned in was when it was supposed to loaded onto the truck from charlotte to columbia.

Fast and furious crew probably sacked the truck. Time to call up the Rock.
