More Aftermarket Woes to us

Well, it was almost 1 yr before finally resolving the issue over some headers for us puny 5SFE engine users in the Toyota community. I think about 10-20ppl were swindled by BS and lack of communication by Rippmods. Thankfully, whoever contacts them now, will be getting their refunds for their downpayments or paid in full. The manufacturer for the headers screwed them so I can't really blame Rippmods but I still blame them a lot to get people worried and concerned of wtf is going on.. where are my darn headers, its almost 1/2 yr gone by since the GB was done and paid through. And now 3/4 to 1whole yr down... finally settling.... LAMEOOOOO

From this crisis, I vowed to move on but still keeping the Solara and finish up the suspension later in the year. Late 2008, I pray something good from Toyota will appear. If not.... I think I'll drive a hybrid camry next up due to the crazy gas prices. Curse BUSH AND WAR

Heh, Rippmods is about the least professional company I have ever dealt with. I ended up getting my header from a private individual that somehow managed to get one, something I tried to do in vain directly for over a year prior. They may offer great parts, but they're not very good business people, being both sloppy and lazy when it comes the business end of the equation.
Let's just pretend I didn't grow up, or you're going to be terribly disappointed.
