I ordered a cat back from them last month. Came pretty quickly. It was packed well and everything was correct except for a missing nut.

I've had nothing but excellent success with Racing Beat. Sounds like you have a simple case of mis-communication.

Call and ask for Jim. I know for sure he is great for getting things done and really cares about customer satisfaction.

i dont think it was miscommunication. both in the confirmation email i got, and the invoice that they sent me with the package, it says i ordered a camber adjuster.

On retroflect, my comment is probably harsher than I intended. However, the point is, talk to them and get it fixed. If they don't fix it, then tell us about it as a warning, but a simple mistake is a simple mistake.
