Alright. I know everyone and their sister has complained about SR, but how it's mine turn.

Last week I ordered the LAST Club GTR body kit that had in stock in California. Is supposed to be here TOMORROW (December 9th) : Instead, I get an email TODAY saying that they can't find the side skirts for the kit. They tell me today, the day before the kit it supposed to be here, in other words, it's not out yet. Being that this IS NOT the first time this has happened, I'm extremely mad. They offered the Cuda 1 or 2 side skirts instead, but I don't wish to mix match, nor do I think that'd look right. Now I'm screwed because I took off of work tomorrow to pick the kit up from someone elses job, which it was hard to get her to let me use the place to begin with.

I requested they send the whole Cuda 2 kit because this is rediculus.

ARGH. Sorry, had to vent.

You got it for $650 plus shipping right? If that is the case, the Cuda2 is only $75 more. It is there mistake selling you a kit that is not complete, so they should suck it up. That would be cool...

Actually, it was $620 shipped. $495, plus $125 shipping. Also, I meant to say that I requested for the Cuda Turbulence Kit.

I'll keep everyone posted.

Actually... from what I know of SR.. that is pretty fast shipping.

I do wish they would get their act together.. they have some nice stuff.

Oh it's not the shipping time that is bugging me. It's the fact that they waited till the day before I was supposed to get the product that they decided to tell me that it hasn't been shipped and that they don't have the sideskirts and I need to pick a new set. ARGH :x

I like the ATH stuff.. I do not feel the lines of my tib need much more than a slight tweaking.. plus I would be afraid of peoiple smaking the non-stock bumpers around here. I am going to get it DIRECTLY from them in Germany though.

not to steal the topic but...

redturbulance and anybody interested,

I just had the Cuda2 kit installed on my car last week (I don't have pictures yet) and overall it's an OK fit. The rear bumper fits nicely eccept for the part in between the tail lights. The front bumper is way off. Side skirts ok. Overall I am very pleased.

clean2k1shark,

I also had a delay on the shipping but eventually I received it (2.5 weeks total, I was suppost to get in less than a week since stock). Personaaly I think the Cuda2 looks better than the GTR, so nice decision on changing it.

Anton

PS. I can take pictures this Saturday and post them on Monday if anybody is interested.

No no, I haven't gotten it yet. I haven't received a reply from SR yet about what I want to do about the problem. But i'll keep everyone posted... ABout the MPS kit, I've only seen one other Tib with that kit and it's quite nice.

When you say the front bumper is way off, in which sence? Too big? Wide? What?
