I tried to save money and ended up losing it.

Whoa whoa whoa. Don't give EW any more ammo. I fixed it. Nothing a bunch of super glue, automotive epoxy, a hammer, and calling EVO-R sh*tbags didn't fix. Followed by the incentive of just buying craftsquares and saying screw it.

Wow took me less time to get built to order CF from Carbon Signal in Dubai!!!

Seen so much about this with ER, not sure why anyone rolls the dice anymore. I'd at least call the part provider whether ER or 3rd party and ask the anticipated shipping date BEFORE paying for anything. If it doesn't suffice, there's many more options.

I bought Evo-R parts through the Z-store and their Ebay page and just waited and waited....for about 6-7 weeks. Tracking was sent but better communication is a must. I knew buying these pieces can potentially take a long time to deliver. I wouldn't order something from them if I needed it sooner. Just my experience with them.

Still waiting on my partial carbon high wing spoiler and front bumper carbon piece since late June. I had a good experience with the Zstore though, carbon fangs came in less than a week.

The Z Store has always been excellent to deal with.

OptionZero · 08-10-2020, 07:04 PM

whats the problem?

member here named quicksilver personally guarantees all EVO R products

just PM him if you have a problem and he'll cut you a check

easy peasy

Evo-R is the best

I have only bought Evo-R parts from the Z store and have had good luck.
I just call and check stock first. I am luck in the sense that the Z store is in SoCal and I receive my orders in like two days.

I have been wanting to buy the Carbon top High wing for my Z and also the Evo-R side blades. The Z store has been out of stock for months and have no idea when they will receive a shipment. I reached out to Jay at Evo-R via email, Instagram and FB and no reply. You would think a business owner would want to collect a $1000.00 but nothing!

I understand from what I read here this is standard practice but felt like posting that things haven't changed it seems.

If anyone knows of anther reliable vendor let me know if not I will just wait for the Z store to get stock.

buy a real nismo wing, which is better in every way, including . . . being able to be purchased

check your FS, ebay, and car-part.com

What do you guys think about Ikon?
They are all over eBay and out of California.

Thanks for the info. I will keep the quest alive for a OEM V1 Nismo wing.

I placed an order for an evo-r carbon high wing Aug 10 and it arrived (I'm in Canada) in two weeks. I just placed an order for a 3 piece front lip on Aug 23 and not even a tracking number yet. And no replies to emails. Seems kinda hit or miss. I'll give another week to reply then I'm logging a case with PayPal

Yea I'm emailing basically every other day since last wed. I don't have a phone# to call direct though. Contact page on the site is now "blank". I only have the email to contact from my order confirmation page.

I'll give a week before I go the next step of filing a ticket with Paypal.
