So I just ordered a new fast intentions TDX CF exhaust.. I already have one on my car but there is a story behind all of this..

So about 3 weeks ago a tow truck from A-AAbandoned Vehicle towed my car in Arlington, Texas.. and they caused cosmetic damages to the CF canisters.. and it hasn't caused a leak or any performance damages just a nasty scrape, thankfully, but they are damaged..

After taking my car to get inspected and haggling with the tow company they finally cut me a check to reimburse me for the F.I. TDX exhaust

(rear CF section only since that is all that was damaged)..
So I just got off the phone with Tony and I will be getting it in 6-8 weeks and selling my old one since it's still fully functional after I get the new one on!

Awesome day!

went to pick up the megane from tom.

aaand then he asked me if I have ever been cursed or if stuff break around me.

as you know my amuse kit got shipped like 4 times before it finally arrived with the rear wing broken.

he and my dad gave up on the amuse wing so they have decided to get a CF seibon wing....it arrived in belgium today....it was damaged.

so whooo another 2 weeks before they ship a new one. thank god it's on a plane.

my car and me are cursed.

kenchan · 06-30-2014, 02:16 PM

oh well this body kit ******** has been going on for like 2 year now.

shipment got lost like 2-3 times. then amuse told us to deal with a middleman. we gave him the shipping money. he never returned the calls and basically disappeared. in the end we gave up and got a replica from an american business. its really a shame that amuse made us pay the shipment every single time. not our fault that the shipping they use is so shitty.

and then the american kit came in. spoiler broken. then a whole mess with insurance since I think it was UPS was refusing to pay money because we accepted the other boxes. i think in the end the american company just gave the money for the spoiler back because insurance wasn't being helpful.

it's really sad because I am now looking at a replacement for my Z(WRX STI) since the thing is 5 years old now. about 60.000 miles on it and its just. I got two dogs now. my amurican fiancé is moving in in two months. so yeah we can't take the dogs anywhere and if we want to go like camping or do something we need a bigger trunk. plus I really really don't like RWD anymore. I got some scares lately and it's stuck in me and I want AWD.

I love my Z but honestly I can't have much fun with it anymore.
