I've turned this over to my credit card company. I do have emails from the seller admitting that my switches are non-conforming in quality. If yours look like mine, I'd be happy to share them with you. PM me.
Just noticed, price drop to $85 on his website!

I also ordered these and paid the "expedited shipping" of 5-10 days (received 30 days later). They arrived yesterday and are laughable. I mean truly laughable. I emailed a John Cobra for a full refund but no reply yet. I will also take it up with my credit card company if no response in the next 24hrs.
On the positive side, I ordered 4 wheel caps and those look legit. They cost roughly half of what Suncoast was charging.

I was able to find an Indy shop that had an interior restoration guy who sanded and resprayed the buttons, scratched center console, steering wheel trim, door trim as well as restored some worn leather on the gear shift all for $300. It looks like new and worth every penny.
I would check with your indy shop or dealer to see who they recommend. The used car manager at a dealer will definitely have "a guy".

Man, I really feel bad for people who have bought these crappy buttons. The pictures of these "things" intrigued me to read all 12 pages of posts from last to first page. Even though this problem doesn't even affect me, I still feel it deeply and can't imagine that someone could even give these crappy buttons away, much less selling them for $100+.
Also, no, it won't look better installed in the car. The horror will disturb your mind every time you drive the car or just taking a dump.

Not me. I am undisturbed. I am still very happy. Up close, not perfect. From drivers seat, they are fine. But compared to the crap there before, they are unnoticeable.
And I have NO affiliation at all.
For those of you who are not perfectionists (and that may be a small minority of us porsche people) it is a nice change.
Who knew this would go for 12 pages?

No dog in the fight here....I'm in the architectural commercial glass / metal biz. There are standards for review of a installed product that we are held to. Typically it is the 10' rule. You need to be 10' away and view the installed material perpendicular from the face of it. One is not allowed to review something that is magnified x50 (like the pics seen on this thread) because all materials have imperfections. Obviously since the switches in question are for a car I think to be fair is that it needs to be reviewed from the driver or passenger seat. If it still looks like crap then it is crap. Like I said I have no dog in the fight or any affiliation and I don't care for the sellers tactics but some need to back up from the microscope review.

They are pretty crap to look at and feel. hairy bits hanging off from the 3d print with clumpy bits left on that rub off with a pass of the finger. I am disappointed but they visually (at a glance) look better than the current condition of my oem buttons. I want to go ahead and install these but I havent set aside the time to do it yet as I dont want to be disappointed further when I see the crap installed.
