right when i get home i will file a dispute... i thank all of you for your support :tiphat:

i hope so too....

my buddy with a top secret G35 here told me something that kinda shocked me... he read my story and was like.... "have you ever thought what if it was shipped like that? like what if UPS didnt f*ck it up? what if they shipped it f*cked up already and it was just in there storage and instead of throwing it away they sold it and shipped it to you and because we live so far... they would blame shipping...." ABSOLUTE GENIUS... i never thought of that.... what do you guys think... he was like having the box look like that bro... and you saying that the pillars were on top with no cushion wouldnt that have cracked if the shroud cracked? it was probably cracked already to begin with.... :shakes head: this makes sense in my head.... how about you guys?

and it finally hits me..... the box... had a UPS GROUND sticker..... now when i got the box i wondered why would they ship it UPS ground? There is no truck that can drive to guam lmao.....On the tracking number it went from UPS facility to hawaii then guam? so why would it say UPS GROUND? what i think had happened is that they shipped these intakes to someone..... and it came cracked..... it was then shipped BACK to BAKER and baker shipped the new intake to the other person... the instructions and brackets were probably forgotten or lost in this process..... then so they wont lose out i came along.... and they sold it to me!!! holy... sh!t.... imma get that UPS ground and bring it to UPS and see if they can track it... if someone elses name pops up... i have the smoking gun fellas....

im curious, the picture you posted of what im guessing to be the pillars. has the rainbow scratch (6 scratches made at same time) what in the box could have possible had teeth like that to create those scratches. they where not individually made because its to uniform. so they where made at once. anything in that box that could have made that?

just type it in ups

ups ground is a term for the slow boat shipping, i ups ground stuff to california from illinois, still going to see a plane just might make multiple stops on the way

i dont think so..... maybe it was shipped like that? thanks for noticing that... i never noticed that and now that i did... it bothers me... ill try hiding it in the clear... when i reclear them

you were right.. it was the same tracking as the one i got... so basically they shipped it the slowest mail despite the fact i told them MULTIPLE times to ship it USPS

well i filed a dispute of $500 bucks.... i think thatll cover all of the shipping... replacement parts, waiting, and wasting my time..... im not mean enough to ask for a full refund because it wasnt completely screwed.... and still usable it was just damaged and missing parts... i think thats fair right guys?

Holy smokes. I almost just ordered an amuse exhaust and amuse coilovers from these guys because well it was discounted heavily. Only thing that stopped me was when I came back from vacation I could no longer pm them. Wow sorry to hear what happened to you but thanks for saving me the grief.

:iagree: I always prefer USPS/canada post >UPS when getting thing to canada.

:tup: perfect I think that is fair GL

PLEASE call them and tell them that!!!
Lets get Sim his money back!!!

And IMO, if he gets it back and Baker DOES what's right then you should order from them too? Maybe tell them that, lol

island love brotha.... thats why i made this... cause i didnt want other people getting jacked...

:tup:

thanks man.... honestly though even if they do whats right... i dont think ill ever do business with them lol... thats just me though... but if i lived in texas... imma live in baker tuning because they have the rarest parts for our z's lol btw thanks for the support brotha :D

wow Simota that is just plain horrible.

I must say though every week i see a thread about a mod your doing! awesome man, good luck with it all.

thanks bro.... im really trying my hardest with my z... :D

update.... baker emailed me... i wonder why.... i would like to thank everyone for pushing me to do a dispute.... he says they are gonna forward the dispute to UPS because they messed it up... lets keep our fingers crossed

:( i just woke up and opened up my paypal.. they closed my dispute because it passed the 45 days that sucks

:(

Wow thats brutal. I hope you can get some kind of compensation for the damages/missing parts. But thanks for the review, I was thinking about ordering parts from them as well but not anymore :tup:
