    Bookmarked it. They have the rear valence, which I need.

    As soon as I hear some feedback about their service and quality.

    I recall some negative posts here about the parts. But all everyone mentioned is that there is a lot of sanding and fitting that need to be done since they don't fit well out of the box.

    Just do a search above on up22. You'll get enough reading to last for a while. :(

    In my personal opinion, unless their quality has changed - RUN, not walk, as far away from their company as humanly possible. :outtahere:

    I have not used their products myself, but have a couple of friends that did have the unfortunate experience of dealing with their hoods. Fitment issues were an understatement from what I personally saw in the them. One was even warped bad enough where if you pushed the left front down to where it would be, the right rear would lift off the body. That was right out of the box and not modified in any way.

    Hope this helps,
    -Scott H.

    That is too bad. I guess you get what you pay for...

    Still better than that Canadian company. I actually paid for an item, didnt receive it or a refund, but was told that the cost would be deducted from my next purchase. Right...I am going to make a "next purchase" from them...
