velocity red.
the fin is too light and has no metal flake like my car has.

Can you post pics of the fin on or next to the car?

i've e-mailed them and inquired about ordering one that is unpainted (im putting black vynil decal on the roof) they replied saying they do offer it at -$10 the price, would this also apply?

I have velocity red also, bought mine off the last GB with absolutely no issue in paint quality. Mine is Damn near spot on if not perfect (mica flake and everything)

Make sure thy didn't send you a volcanic red by mistake which is brighter red with no flake.

Either way I think they should make it right for you.

i should double check my order to make sure i didnt fuck up and look like a toolshed by picking the obviously wrong color...

oh shit, i soooo pickked the wrong color code! well i fail.

guess i selected the wrong one. How??? i really dont know, guess i was so gung hoe on ordering it i was not really paying attention,
sorry rpm store, my mistake.

how did i miss it by 2 options in the drop down

i really fail hard.
time to find a body shop to paint it.

time to also edit posts.

its my fault for not paying attention.
i was so dead set on " knowing " i got the velocity red that i didnt even go back and look at the order while i was waiting for like 3-4 weeks. then it showed up and i shit my pants when it didnt match. i thought of every excuse except the one saying that I Fuckked up.

<- thats what i deserve right now.

Zinger, have you contacted RPM or Visual Garage? If not, get in touch with them, I'm sure they'll make it right with ya, even if it was an oversight on your part. I had very good luck with customer service from both.

zinger002 · 11-04-2009, 09:08 PM

i feel bad for making an assface of myself so i think i will just leave it at that and walk away with one foot in my mouth.

i will just look into getting it painted locally... then i will weigh my options.

batou079 · 11-04-2009, 09:29 PM

ah, missed this one. *sigh*
mebe next time if it happens...
