That's not very nice of him >.>. I think you should ask someone else to handle it. I'd murder him verbally if he did that to me :\

Concord tried calling, he didn't answer. So they were going to call him on a different phone. Meeting up with them after work on Friday to see what we can do with my other one

Yeah get around to it ASAP. By what you've written this is not right. I'd hate to be treated like that & you have them too many chances

Hopefully the guys at Concord will be able to adequately fit it to your car; they managed to do ok with mine, and it wasn't perfect to begin with.

Did Dave at any point offer you a partial refund? I got $120.00 back when they botched the paint job- and while it wasn't enough for a respray, it was an ok result considering the part wasn't very visually prominent when installed, and looked 'black enough'.

FWIW, this thread is the 3rd link listed when searching for 'Talon diffuser' on Google:

Perhaps Talon Body Styling shouldn't have sold us their Talon Lancer diffuser bumper rear body kit part ... or whatever random combination of words you want to call it :wink:

Hey

Yeh, I got told I could refund if I wanted to. But it'd be a pain to send it back. He said he would prep and paint one but found out I got a crappy paint job done on it so was going to just prep one. I was meant to send it back first but got quoted $129..so no way. Then He was meant to organise someone to come out and pick it up and give us the other one..which brings us to today -_-'

Oh goodie! Hoping that more people see it!!!
