what's too bad is that this company overcharges like a mother...They want $575 for the 7 interior pieces, after they have the pieces wrapped in China and there may or may not be a wait...

All the while the company I just found in New Jersey will do the same 7 pieces for $400.

So update to my refund process. I had sent back my window switch panels. The passenger window switch had a broken front clip.

Now, I didn't notify FXAuto of this problem when I originally received my pieces because I did not flip over every switch panel and inspect the clips to make sure they weren't broke. I knew they were all attached, so I figured everything was ok.

It wasn't until I removed them to ship back that the front clip just came right off. I look at where it went and noticed there was dried glue in that spot...Whoever wrapped that piece in carbon fiber *****ing glued a broke clip back on!

So I just went ahead and sent the 4 switch panels back and then he wants to tell me I broke it! Um, no, Im not the one who used glue that wasn't strong and came apart...LIKE MY CENTER CONSOLE PIECES THAT SPLI IN HALF!

More Chinese quality to appreciate I guess.
