Just contact whoever you bought them from that you're having clearance issues or that they didn't send the right ones and get rid of them. These guys on here know their sh**, trust me, they've helped me out more times than I can remember, don't take offense to the advice that they're giving you, they're only trying to help you get out of a bad situation.

I didnt purchase the heads my parents got them for me for a graduation gift, my dad knew i was looking at heads so he was looking for the cheapest aluminum ones...I didnt buy them or pick them out..i was looking at some patriots or the gt40's from blue oval industries. But i told the guy that i have no use for them and im getting my money back. but i just turned 18 a few months so yes i may be ignorant, but do NOT call me retarded.

And by teling me to throw them away, you really helped me figure out what to do..

Did you read through that website I gave you? Don't put them on there just to make your dad happy, did you say your going to try and get ur money back though?

raw3836

cougarfan088
