Default FS - CF Dive Planes

My pain is your gain........
Ordered the Canards (dive planes) from GMG for a 997.1 RS - they sent the ones for a .2 RS. Told me that they were the only ones available and that they are custom ordered and can not be returned. I asked why are you advertising ones for a .1 RS and never got a great response.

So - $745.00 new. These were never used - one was opened to see how fit was - when this didn't work - the second one was never opened.

$645.00 plus shipping. Please send me a PM for questions or details. Thanks

Why is it that each time I see or hear GMG there is negatively involved the last year or so?

Unbelievable that they would damage their reputation over something so easy to refund when it was their mistake to begin with. What were they thinking? I have gotten bad customer service from them too.

Good luck with sale man!

It surely doesnt sound good that such big shop would treat a customer like that.

bc it's one of the worst shop around.
btw, those are not custom parts, so if it's not returnable, they need to come up with some other reasons.

that said, good luck with your sale, but try not to buy stuff form GMG.

Thanks for the responses. The guy that I talked to (both when ordering and on the return) was alittle rude. Seems like I was bothering him - especially since I wasn't having work done at the shop.

Just not good for any return business

mrm 930 contact Eddie-RPW and he'll set you up with correct dive planes for your
.1RS for less money and give you A+ #1 service. I and many here will stand behind this statement.
You also over paid for those dive planes from GMG.

Sorry to hear about your misfortune with GMG. That's complete BS that they pull that crap. Not custom and they can easily be sold to another .2 car without any worries so there was no reason not to take it back.....especially since it was THEIR FAULT.

Have hear this story before with GMG. Let me guess, did you talk to Allen???

Just send your story to Fabryce and things will be fixed.

If you aren't able to quickly sell them here, I agree with Dell. Talk to James or Fabryce and I trust they will do the right thing. Your experience so far is unreasonable.

Sorry for the bad experience!

How much downforce do these provide, and how does a tape backing withstand whatever that number is?

GMG - they love ripping people off. Period.
Bunch of a holes working there. Why are they still in business?
I went down there to pick up a part recently and the "owner" looks at me and tells me to wait and someone will help me while he chit chats w his coworker for 10 min. BS..
