If you want to PM me your full name, I'll make it a point to be more clear to him as well.


Just a quick update.


Alex did reach out to me last week and said that it was a misunderstanding and that I will be receiving a full refund. I'll keep you posted on how everything goes.

Which 2011 front bumper? If it's the sport then none exists. Stephen(R1 Autoworks) said he was working on something for that bumper. I really want to get the OG CF IPL side splitters but I would need to get a proper fitting front splitter in CF for the 2011+ sport bumper.

A shame pretty much nobody made anything for that bumper. But then again it's not a very popular choice for some reason

I have the stillen splitter on my 2012 Coupe. Easy install, functional and looks nice. If you wanted it CF, can always get it hydrodipped

I'm in same boat. Alex did respond and will give me a refund, but I really wanted that front lip because no one else makes anything for it. I was trying to get him to tell me if they fabbed it completely in house or if they had a supplier/manufacturer that may still have the mold or that could possibly get some made for me. I had talked with VIS about them trying to recreate it a while back, but stopped when I thought I was getting one. Maybe I can resume talks and maybe get something fabbed up, they would have the monopoly and sell quite a few I'm sure, so keep your fingers crossed.

I'm not really a fan of any of the splitters that have been adapted to fit the2011 sport bumper, it just looks kinda out of place I think. Maybe if one was made specificallly for it, that followed the contours better IDK. It's just weird that nothing else was made for a bumper that spanned over 6 years. I was really looking to avoid getting a whole new bumper, to avoid having to paint it to match or wrap the whole car, as I have moonlight white which is a pain.

If anyone knows anything else about any of this let me know.

con't.
Like he's willing to work with me on this but I still haven't received the check said was sent in the mail a month ago or the PayPal transfer he said I was supposed to get.


Hopefully Alex can come through with his promise and provide me my refund.

so he sent you a cheque then later said he would send you a paypal transfer? this looks like a textbook con to me. just buying time with various poor excuses. It would take 30 seconds for a paypal transfer. Sending something in the mail from one continent to another takes less than 30 days.
