I paid directly with my card so i'll just need to contact my bank. But for me it won't stop there, I don't take **** like this lightly, I will do everything I can to screw with him until I get bored or he faces some sort consequence.
To be honest i'd rather my money back anyways so I can order a carbon spoiler of some sort. I really want a duckbill but not willing to wait another 2 months+. It's too bad that aerojacket is a **** up, especially since their price point was fair, hell even their shipping rates were realistic, not paying $150 to ship a spoiler, i don't mind paying extra for the spoiler itself if the service is better and I would receive it faster, but ridiculous to overcharge for shipping.
The carbon bug bit me a long time ago, with my G35, and its come back for sure. Just need to decide who gets my money. I used rhdjapan before without problems and might do the same again for the Z parts. If it takes too long then at least I can say, well its coming from Japan. Or...
And put it on Harry's tab.

Yeah get refunded and then chose a different company. Told you it would happen. My car shop I use, the owner is also friends with Rick and has Aerojacket parts ordered sometimes. The thing is my friend, the owner, says that the part has to come in, be installed and customer is satisfied before he gets paid. That way there are no complications with returns, refunds, or parts not being delivered.
Odd part was last week when I was at my car shop, the owner who is my friend was telling me that Rick from Aerojacket stopped by and was checking out my Z with the newly installed hood and fenders. I told my friend that he was probably envious cause the fitment and filament is pretty much 10/10 on my Fly1 Carbon Fiber product and my Spoiler from Aerojacket was at most an 8.5/10 when it was first installed. Fitment was off and the edges are raised off the hatch. I can probably fit a quarter in the gap. Clearcoat had some marks and what looked light small bubbles. Only things like these are noticeable when you are perfectionist with it all.
I used to know where Aerojacket's shop was where I live. Before they moved I was literally a 5 minute drive from their shop. Since they moved, no clue where to, plus I would hope that Rick would realize instead of going to my car shop to he should try and get people their orders. Since he is there every once and a while I figure I will run into him eventually. I bring it up to him every time to get people from the 370z forum their orders if they are still waiting.
Rhdjapan is reputable, but takes forever coming through shipping and customs. I have still ordered from them and will continue.
Fly1 Motorsports is where I'll be getting most body kit pieces/ bigger carbon fiber parts. Local and easier that way. Plus lohit is always helpful. As for the current thread on Fly 1 Motorsports, it seems to be an isolated incident at this point. It is nothing like the Aerojacket scandal that has been going on that has affected hundreds of people just of this forum. I'm able to still get a hold of Lohit and always have been.
CZP Performance is another reputable vendor. Bought a part that almost no one had in stock. I would have to order from Nismo and would be manufactured per my order through other vendors, but after about a day of digging around the rep found a set that was in stock at Nissan Motorsports in the back that someone just had happened to see recently and remembered it when the rep from CZP called them. Had it within a week and a half.
Bulletproof automotive is also a reputable vendor, higher end products. I.e. Varis, Fujimura, Powerhouse Amuse, Top Secret, Tommy Kaira etc.
Just be sure the keep to your handful of vendors you choose and do the research.
