Wow. This makes no sense....why would GTM send someone a completely messed up kit while they have been sending perfectly good kits to everyone else?

You may have had a good experience. However this experience was the complete opposite.I will say The person from GTM did state that. No one would believe Joe's story because people know them and it would be Joe's word against his. Joe kept quiet. I for one don't like seeing people pushed around screwed over or bullied. I don't care who you are.No matter if you spend $300 or $8300.If your have sponsored vehicle with GTM stickers on it or not. Everyone should be treated with the same amount of respect and excellent customer care that Is so mentioned on the GTM site. There was a great lack of care, concern and respect. It is sad to say but only the posting on this site got the job done enough to get a phone call from GTM concerning this matter. Just so you know Joe still hasn't receive his undamaged parts. MARCH 5 a box just shipped out to him. Not priority like GTM promised him long ago. I got tired of people talking trash. All of whom have never even seen the conditions of the boxes nor the products shipped to Joe. Sadly this is not made up. Hopefully this will not happen again to anyone else. I have seen everything first hand. I know what I saw I witnessed him opening the boxes. His face went from excited to crushed. He waited so long and this is what he got. He even thought about having a friend help fix the parts because he didn't want to wait again. (but for $8300 one shouldn't have to get anything fix right out the box) Plus it took GTM way to long to even get the products to shipping. All who've seen the kit with their own eyes know it's not from shipping. So please stop trying to say that. Even GTM knows it's not from shipping.
It's been a long day. Goodnite all and have a good week
and if you got a good kit from gtm. Pat yourself on the back. Good for you. You're one of the lucky ones.

I'm prolly gonna order it anyways... It's just I was so shocked to see this quality coming from such a great company. I'm very picky about quality of the condition of items that's all. I just wanted to see if there was another side to the story that someone may know.

Right ok.. and this was the response

Our shipping department is OCD when it comes to packing parts. Everything is bubble wrapped and protected before shipping. Of all the kits we have shipped out, this is the first time something major happened during shipping. Regardless, we are here to take care of our customers and ensure that they get what they pay for and that does NOT mean "hacked up parts". We take a lot of pride in what we do and shipping garbage is not something we do...unless of course, you decide not to recycle the bubble wrap you receive with your kit.

Anyway, back on topic, we'll be testing the manifold on bullitt's project first.

Funny how this dude fails to mention that in the video.

Something doesn't add up. Maybe Steve Millen is making videos to undermine his competitors

Would customs open up products and destroy them? It's a possibility. The kit was sent to Guam.

That, or someone besides GTM opened it up before the packages arrived at their final destination.

Well proof tells us it was customs who unpacked everything and threw it all back in the box. Then obviously chit was hitting inside the box when it was being shipped to the destination. OBVIOUSLY GTM would never internationally ship a product without making sure it's properly packaged.

GTM isn't at fault whatsoever in this matter, you can blame customs.

^^^HAHAHA!!

Were you there? Of course you were there, you must have been......

no boxes were opened.

This is not the first time I have had something shipped out to Guam. Previous car had same setup (all shipped to guam) and all current parts on the 370 car, were recieved unscathed and undamaged.

There was no room for the pipes to move inside the box, it was packed entirely to tight...refer to pictures

Ive been on Guam 3 years in April, never have had a shipping issue before this. Care packages, or car parts, no issues until now.

There is literally no f****** room for any movement in the box. Some scratches I could somewhat understand but most of the damage is completely unacceptable.

TO ALL:

PLEASE LISTEN, LISTEN TO VIDEO BEFORE POSTING
