Not going to chime in on the state of the item.

HOWEVER, F4Bones is the liar here. He states new OEM in the ad. That means new, as in in the packaging, or purchased but not used. Later he says it is "removed by me from brand new 2023 992 TTS".

Those two are not the same. New oem is a PART.

removed from a car is used (regardless of the car never being driven, and the fact you had to 'remove it') and should be listed as such with all disclaimers. You can say excellent condition. New car with no miles. But you can't call it a new oem part.

If there is nothing at all wrong with it other than maybe some glue clean up, just provide that info. The price is a deal, but don't mislead someone with an inaccurate ad.

He said the steering wheel was new and unused. The piece came from said steering wheel. It was removed from the brand new steering wheel. That's how I read the ad. I've got no skin in the game I don't know anyone bitching and complaining here. But I still think it's suspect when somebody comes in throwing barbs and then refuses to produce the evidence for an alleged fraud.

like I said, when I get to my clubhouse, I will grab the item and take the pictures on some of F4bones very own pictures. You can see the tape and the glue, but I’ll post my own. The worst part is where the carbon fiber is melted with like some kind of glue gun why in the hell would I do that It’s not good enough for some of you why in the hell would I get on here and complain about something that is brand new you should stay out of this **** too doesn’t concern you.

These exact photos posted with listing, and this is the exact unit the troll received.

Matt Carbon, OEM, carefully removed at less than 100 miles

Included center trim

OEM cost over $1,000 - sold it as favor to rennlist member for $200. Guess no good dead goes unpunished.

This doesn’t seem like real life. Thread should be locked.

You posted this to a public forum so everyone is now entitled to chime in. Sorry you lose.

Work it out through DMs.
