I recommended them because the parts are the cheapest that you will find, they are OEM, and they did everything that they were supposed to do. Give me a good reason why I should NOT recommend them.

Remember that the 8 weeks for me included painting.

Other than the delivery time they were excellent. They had some hiccups with regard to hardwre not being delivered, but they fixed everything in a timely manner. I cannot complain about the product they they delivered to me. Sure you can get the parts elsewhere faster, but you will pay more to get them. Personally I don't mind waiting for the lower cost... the car wasn't going anywhere and it really didn't make a difference to me as the install was a winter project done while the car was off the road.

Really, does a few weeks of waiting really matter in the scheme things if you get a high quality product delivered for thousands less than other sources? Think about it.

This is the reasons.

1. Freaking long deliverytime.
2. They lied to my friend about shipping date, they told him 7th January that the stuff were shipped. But after few days he emailed for trackingnr without an answer. First yesturday 24th January we called and first then they told us that its gonna be shipped today 25th and gave us a trackingnr.

Hmm. Okay, yes. Of course I have the ability to predict that they're going to mess up on future orders when they handled mine fine. Yes, that's totally rational.

As i said, if you're in a hurry, feel free to buy from other places and pay more. I do not regard my experience with them as negative.

I had already paid the membership fee well over a year ago but never had the 'user' status changed. It wasnt a big deal to me has it was only $17.95. But to passify everyone, I paid it again and it should be taken care of and people can come down off of their

One more negative thing about DPS, payed for faster shipping 3 days, took over 1 week to arrive within USA.

Anyways I have a question, when you order sideskirts from DPS, shouldnt hardware be included?

It was in my case, but I saw a post recently that said that someone was charged separately.
