Stay away from Bodykits.com

Worst experience ever. After placing an order for side skirts made by VIS, I've been waiting for the item now for over two weeks, on each occasion of calling in to get an update I would have to call myself and hear the same story "we will call you, or email you with an update as soon as we call VIS for an update on the order", only to never hear from bodykits until I call them. Two weeks ago after calling for another update I am told that the part is on back order and will be available in another 2-4 wks.. After complaining last week regarding the lack of communication on bodykits part I am told that they can provide me with an option to get the part made here in NJ for an additional cost, and it would be $50 extra, and mailed to me in 4-5 days. WTF was this option over 2 months ago. After telling them I want to cancel my order this is the response they provide me with below. Please stay away from these guys, horrible service, and lame communication, to top it off I'm not even sure if they were just trying to squeeze extra money out of me, or what. the whole situation just sucked.

Hey Felion,
Terribly sorry about the long delay on this. We have skinny margins on VIS stuff as is and they want an additional $90 to make it locally. We had offered to cut that down to $50 for you to help you out, but we can't make it locally for what you paid unfortunately as we'd be losing money. Would be more than happy to help you either way though. Just let us know.
Thanks,
Don L.

If you don't get your money back within a reasonable date, time to call up your CC company and get your money back. Time is ticking though

Ordered the 99 spec wing, got a random carbon fiber blade that was 3 inches too wide and some leg stantions from some universal kit. Ended up using the legs and buying an authentic blade from japan.
