Yeah go there to look, but don't buy. They have customer service issues.

Check out Kaminari, good customer service and a great hood. Don't buy from a middle man buy direct they stand behind their products.

why are you always bashing us? we might have had issues a couple of years ago, but all customer service issues have been handled. we have a very good reputation on g35driver.com (ask kyle) and 35z-tech.... furthermore, doing searches on your own site, i don't find much negativity concerning us, in the past year or so? it seems that you, specifically, have a problem with us. because you have a vested interest in my350z.com, and have your own vendor loyalties, i don't see how it is very professional to bash us everytime our name comes up in a thread. furthermore, our mailorder company is very successful, and therefore, it's belittling to us to say that we're underrated.

+1

especially after reading the post they made.. perhaps they should spend less time browsing the forums and more time atually making sure thier customers are happy.. oh.. and lowering thier prices too.. to at least compete with others.

thanx. the edges don't fit as closely as stock, but overall, i'm satisfied. got it from a company called carbon innovations on ebay. i've had it on for over a year with no problems. stay away from the ebay vendor called carbon creations. they tried to rip me off.
