GP I have the Andy's kit! I'm thinking of selling just the front bumper for a good price. Let me know if you are interested! It's never been installed! Only reason I'm selling is that I like the Erebuni 141A front bumper better! Let me know! I'll let it go as low as $100. + shipping! Peace!

Anybody have a erebuni 141 coupe front bumper for sale?
Spoon, how much modding does it take to mold the overlay kit? Is the overlay kit strong enough/thick enough to replace the lower bumper overlay. I'm asking b/c I have the sarona front end and the 141 overlay kit might not fit.

I'm going to post a kit that has not been mentioned yet. There is one sitting in a garage back in Boston for me! It is rather expensive, comes with the fogs and in my opinion is the best looking kit for the Legend Sedan!

Admiration kit:

I love that whaletail spoiler! I don't like the ricer ones that are like 3 ft off the trunk, they don't do crap and look even crappier!

I couldnt fine a company that could get that here for less than 4 grand

Not sure where this post belongs but as this thread links to Andy's Autosport I'll post it here.

I would suggest strongly against ordering anything from Andy's Autosport. I ordered a full Combat kit in July of 2005 and the front they sent me was molded wrong the headlamps dipped down instead of going flat across and 1 wheel well angled outward while the other was flat my body shop informed me the front had been molded wrong as the 2 sides obviously did not match so I had them put the original front back onto my car. The next day I e-mailed Eric Ferguson of Andy's Autosport about returning the kit the 1 e-mail I got back from the 4 I sent they said 'I either needed to send pictures documenting the problem or needed to send the kit back so they could inspect it the kit' I had not taken pictures when the kit was on the car so had no intention of paying to have the kit put back onto the car to take pictures 3 unresponded to e-mails later I decided to call them I verified the shipping address on the phone and the representative said that there would be no problem with the refund except if they decided the kit was properly molded I would not be refunded the return shipping cost I agreed and began searching for a shipping company when I found one it cost me 380$ to ship the kit back because I had trouble finding any company that would ship it back the way it had been shipped to me (entire kit and grills shoved into 1 box with no packing of anykind on the kit and a piece of wrapping foam taped to the grills) trucking companies, DHL, Fedex, and UPS labled it "inadequate protection" UPS did offer to special make 2 boxes for the kit and package it for me so I would be able to send it as they were the only company to offer this I decided to ship with them as well. Andy's Autosport signed for the Kit on November 11th 2005 my next call to them was on November 28th 2005 asking why they hadn't notified me when they received the kit and asking about my refund they said there was no record of any prior phone calls or e-mail transactions they had no idea why the kit was sent back (I have phone records and e-mail record proving I contacted them numerous times before sending the kit back) according to them since I had not informed them of the return or been authorized to return the kit the only refund I was entitled to was a 65% refund on parts and no shipping costs (this came out to 403$ of the 1179$ they owed me)

dealings to date:
5 e-mails sent (on record) 1 response from the company
3 voicemails (on record) left with managers 0 returned calls
11 phone calls (on record) since July 19th 2005 they maintained I had never called them until January 20th 2006 (of my 11 calls none of them were on the 20th)
Since July 19th 2005 they have told me each time that I called that I have never contacted them in anyway before despite me having complete record of when I called, who I talked to, how long we talked for, and what we discussed.
UPS sent them a certified letter threatening legal action when Andy's Autosport claimed they never received my body kit they quickly discovered they had received it but maintained that I had never contacted them
Cole & Cole Law Firm sent Andy's Autosport a letter stating the chain of events and what was expected from them Andy's responded by saying despite them having no record of their own of the e-mails that I sent them or that they sent back or record of any of the calls that I had made to them that all the facts in the letter were wrong and that despite them not inspecting it the kit was molded properly they also stated that their products were only intended to be installed by "qualified professionals" (I guess implying that a body shop thats been in business for decades with 3 custom body kit specialists are not qualified to do their job which is funny because Andy's talks about how qualified all their people are when the majority of their employee's have worked for them for 1 year or less)

Original order was July 19, 2005 on March 08, 2006 I received 403$ of the 1179$ they owe me they have ignored my e-mails and phone calls as well as letters from UPS and my lawyer I am now filing a claim with my local district court for cost of parts, shipping, lawyers fees, court fees, body shop costs, and compensation for time wasted from their failure to honor their word.

dealings to date: of 4 e-mails sent to the company 1 has been responded to, of the 3 voicemails 0 have been returned, out of 11 phone calls to the company they have record of no e-mails from me no voicemails from me and tell me each time I call that I have never called or contacted them in anyway despite me having complete record of when I called who I talked to and how long we talked for... they still say I've never contacted them before the only response I have gotten from them is about 3 weeks after the 11th call to them (9 months after I asked for a full refund 6 months after they had the kit back) and after I had contacted my lawyer they sent me a check for 403$ of the 1179$ they owe me when my lawyer sent a letter to them they responded promptly stating that none of the information he provided was correct and that they had resold the kit not knowing it was ever under dispute note that in this letter are SprintPCS phone logs, and the letter threatening legal action that UPS wrote to the company months ago when Andy's tried to deny ever receiving my kit back at all despite having signed for it...

after reviewing their BBB record (note they are not a member of the BBB) I am wishing I had reviewed it before ordering from them in the first place as most of the numerous complaints against them are for parts quality and return issues

original order was July 19, 2005 as of March 08, 2006 I have received 403$ of the 1179$ they owe me they have ignored letters from myself, UPS, and my lawyer I am now filing a claim with my local district small claims court for the original 1179$ which is cost of parts and shipping as per their policy on defective parts I am now adding to that lawyers fees, court fees, body shop costs, and time wasted.

I will update the information and chain of events on this when I get home this is a quick review with possible errors

You speak English, so I know you know how to PUNCTUATE. Damn.

If you sent them letters like the mess you posted above (no punctuation) I can see why they didn't respond. Hell, I wouldn't have responded, either. Mr. T. says it best.

ATLfoKuS · 03-09-06, 12:57 PM

anyone else just dislike body kits? or am i all alone.

Psychism · 03-10-06, 02:21 AM

if punctuation is your main problem with that you seriously need to rethink your way of life anyone who understands the way English works does not need helpers to tell them when a sentence splits or ends

had you read it you may have also noted that I never sent them a letter UPS sent them a letter and my lawyer sent them a letter

Psychism · 03-10-06, 04:09 AM

yeah I really can't stand the majority of body kits ATLfoKuS but since ordering a new front bumper cover from the factory cost $1100 installed I figured a new body kit for $800+installation might be a better choice and Combat was the only kit I found I liked I'm actually glad I decided to spend the extra on the stock front instead of having my body shop remold Andy's kit to fit my car if I hadn't I would probably have continued ordering from Andy's until I had a different major problem with them best to get bad companies off the list on the first order

Mikey851 · 03-20-06, 11:49 PM

Hey guys, does anyone else like that Kaminari kit with the cartoon drawing of the lady/guy???? wearing a sweater. I think that kit looks good cause it's not too tacky.

ssilk · 03-21-06, 12:09 AM

Moderatror should sticky this one.

I think most of them are nasty ugly too. I wouldn't put a kit on unless it was a wide body kit needed to put wide wheels on ... whick I also would never do to this car. Its a perfect car just the way it came from the factory.

One of these days I will take some pictures of my 100% stock Legend and remind all you modders what you have messed up !
