I had a Fidanza which turned out to be a cluster f****, glad I didn't pay for it. I replaced it with a Dynotech piece which is made 100% from Spicer driveline pieces. Extremely nice, fixed all my issues.
Sorry for your issues, but you weren't the first and won't be the last unfortunately! I had the Fidanza piece re-shafted and the vibration was better but never quite gone.

Just to update for everyone...
I installed the fixed drive shaft, the aluminum shaft was bent near the front of the shaft American Drive Shaft Service straightened/ re-welded and balanced it for under $70. Smooth as can be, I wish it was that good the first time I installed the DS.
Hope this info can help future buyers...
