on tuesday theyll have had my grille for a full month. its ridiculous. i know they were supposed to be moving locations but all they had to say was
"hey can ya hold off on sending it? we are in the process of moving"
either that or instead of telling me itd only take 4-5 DAYS MAYBE THEY SHOULDVE TOLD ME 4-5 WEEKS! i dont even know how to go about getting my grille back from them. i was supposed to pay for the dipping and the shipping back to me but i feel that i should not have to pay either of those since ive been repeatedly lied to. last week i could not get them to answer the phone. neither the shop number or Gavin the "guy in charge".

Talked to Gavin today & he said it would be shipped out today. We'll see if that's true or not. Maybe the email from the Law firm my mom works for surprised him? :shrug:

It was chrome. Chrome doesn't go with my scheme (silver/black) I bought it with intentions of having it painted. Having it dipped was a cheaper and looked like a better option.

Well the hydro stuff is supposed to be like powder coating real strong. Mines a DD so I want it to be able to hold up to any & everything I come into contact with day after day lol

Your car has it's front bumper and hood painted right? That's holding up I assume

That also is probably a horrible thing to hydrodip and they realized that once they got it
