Why does something always go wrong?

Here's my story on the spoiler. When I got it, it had 3 of what look like thumb prints in the spoiler, and the spoiler had terrible orange peel. I had it wet sanded and now it looks pretty good and I'm satisfied. Another thing, the idiots at the Spoiler Store put the tape too far up on the spoiler. standing next to the car looking back you can see the tape underneath the spoiler. I sharpied it black before I installed it which helped a lot but it's still noticeable. Not to an untrained eye though.

I agree with AmericanIron. It's all part of the experience. My camshafts install was the most harrowing journey in mods.. all of the others paled in comparison to the heartache, anxiety and pain I went through wondering if my car would ever run correctly again. lol. A good dyno tune solved it.
I've been under the car banging, twisting, realigning, bending my exhaust since I got the car.... that's just an exhaust thing. I finally took it to an exhaust shop, told them to pull the entire thing apart and custom rebuild it.
Money solves all problems it seems.. who said money doesn't buy happiness was WRONG lol.

This thread is a perfect example of what I said about not wanting to mod
my car much. I took alot of crap for that, But like's been said before....what ever
makes you happy. There are some great looking cars and fast cars on this site,
but I won't mod much.
The biggest things I will do are wheels and tires for summer and get the Koni
non-adjustable shocks and struts when they come out.

Sorry to hear about your troubles, AlloySixxer. I had a similar problem with my GT500 spoiler from the Spoiler Store... in short, the first spoiler had a bunch of little specks underneath the clearcoat and some tiny air bubbles. So I had to contact Spoiler Store and they sent me a second one a few weeks later. This one was actually worse than the first. It had a bunch of little dents all over the place. So I contacted them again and was assured that the third would be the charm. Was it? Sort of. It's much better than the first two, but it isn't perfect. There are a couple of tiny specks and one area that is a bit hazy if you look at it in direct light, but I'd be afraid to exchange it again and get something far worse. The color does match up beautifully though. Luckily the spoiler itself is good enough that I'm willing to keep it. So after two months and three spoilers I was satisfied.

Anyhow, definitely let Spoiler Store know ASAP. You don't want too much time to go by before letting them know about it. They seem to be good people that want their customers to be satisfied... I would just adivse you not to expect the spoiler to be 100% perfect. You do get what you pay for after all...

Alot of patience is required with these cars, especially when you choose to mod'em. Not everything is gonna go right, its just the luck of the draw I guess. You have to admit though, when everything comes all together, its so much sweeter in the end when everything finally does go right. I guess if everything DID go right in these cars, it just wouldn't be as much fun LOL its part of the experience as Americaniron said!
