Is this similar to the GT500 hood for 18+?Update : received the vents and rain tray, an hour after the original shipping company called me to tell me they had another package for me that was never picked up. The matte black paint I paid extra for was done about as good as the rest of the paint, so that sucks. Finally done with I suppose.
I just experienced this same thing with Cervinis. I ordered a ram air hood on May 3rd. It literally just shipped today but they sent me an email last week saying it shipped, I called the freight company and they told me we don't have any shipments going to your zip code. I was ready to cancel my order.
My hood, I was told, failed quality control. Took another month to get it shipped which was today even though they told me it shipped last week. WTF is going on at Cervinis. If they don't support their work then they are all but out of business already.
Signing with pending inspection is a common thing in the transportation industry, it doesn’t mean there’s an issue with the product, it just covers people’s butts incase it was damaged in transit or there’s an imperfection that QC missed.. after all humans aren’t perfect and can miss things. Also just incase the paint might not match perfectly, different batches of paint and how much sunlight your car gets can change things a bit.
Do you mind if I ask where you sourced the OEM 500 hood? And how does it fit on a 350? I thought the two wouldn't line up.Good luck with a true paint match to magnetic j7, there is over 10 variants to that color. I sprayed out all 10 and still wasn't happy. Had to blend the windshield post bumper cover and into the doors to make it match perfectly. Heres a factory ford 500 hood on my 350
What I dont understand is how these fail quality control especially non metallic colors. They must have amateurs painting. Then to make you wait another month is crazy.
I heard all their painters quit or got fired somehow to collect unemployment since it paid more than what they were making and now they have all new painters. Scary.
That doesnt surprise me one bit. My chiropractor has been trying to hire a new massage therapist with a $1,000 sign on bonus and he cant even get anyone because they'd all rather sit home making money.
Wow,......you better have yourself and a good friend go over that hood with a fine toothed comb before taking delivery!!
I want to but I can't do that in a shopping center parking lot very easily.
Over the course of waiting on my hood they said they would call me back about 4 times, never did. That sucks the hood went to TX. How does that even happen.... Just a few weeks back I ordered shocks and struts from American Muscle, what I got was 1 used front strut with no hardware and 3 rear shocks half missing hardware. The outer box was fine but once I opened it up I saw the Koni boxes were destroyed. I bitched them out and asked them who ships used parts? They even had the RMA from the last person that ordered it still in the box. I will never order from them again. AND they took 20% of my refund as a restocking fee. American Muscle is dead to me.
The same thing happened to me from American Muscle with JLT oil separators. I ordered a passengers side and drivers side. Got one all good in a JLT box. Another was shipped in a generic brown box. No parts just the oil separator you can tell it was returned and restocked. They were good enough to instantly send me out a new one but it was so obvious it was infuriating. I tend to use LMR or Lethal Performance only now. LMR for mods and parts and Lethal for engine parts super charger, headers, exhaust etc.
