Same here - have INGS certificate and instructions.
Definitely not a reseller or shipping issue - poor quality control and finish on INGS side.

edit: nevermind just reread title. I thought you were saying you received it and waited 8 weeks to open it

Oh man, that would be depressing to see after such a long wait.

I actually sold my ING+1 replica in FRP just so I could pony up more cash to get the real deal from INGs in CF

I imagine when you are paying $700+ for a lip they would re-cehck that stuff....perhaps it was a rushed batch? I know most of these are not built till there is an order...no excuse though

Any updates?

I just had my Ings GT wing installed a few weeks ago, and went over it 3 times to make sure there wasn't any cracks or anything, didn't see any.

Sorry to hear about your lip and hope you can get it fixed. :(

I don't have any really good quality pics as I don't have time to do a good shoot of it. Prolly won't until the spring, all I can say is I love it. :tup:

Thanks bud. :tiphat:

yah, the ings piece is not a finished product. you or a bodyshop needs to prep it and paint/clear coat it.

mine looked similar to that. i took a few nights after work to sand it all down and UV coated it clear. :)
looks like a factory piece now. :p

I dont think just clear coat will make this look good.

if those are voids (cant tell from picts) those needs to be repaired/replaced. mine just needed to be sanded down to prep.

VDC_OFF 12-18-2012 02:33 PM

look like chips in the carbon fiber to me

kenchan 12-18-2012 02:39 PM
