Default So Those C5 Chrome Motorsports I was telling you about...

Yeah, those.. with the rivet holes inside the barrels and the flaws in the chrome (made in China), not to mention the scratched up centercaps...
I sent them back 2 weeks ago fully packaged (Fed Ex) and Factory Reproductions (who had the audacity to call me "anal" over the phone) and tell me "what do you expect for $175 ea wheels?" has NOT credited my account as of yet. Since it's Sunday night, I will be calling them tomorrow. In the meantime, I placed a dispute on the charge to my credit card ($894.10). I'm sorry I wasted my time with Factory Reproductions to begin with. They are not a good company to deal with. Just putting the word out...

I have contacted them several times on the fitment issue on the C6 vs C6Z and they are very informative on the phone..

they really said "what do you expect for $175 ea wheels?"

Yeah, he said it. I then said "by no means is $900 cheap". Anyway, I called this morning and he said that he just got my paperwork on his desk. He was more calm and polite on the phone this time. So hopefully this will be resolved soon.

File a complaint with your credit card company.

Thanks. I'm in the process of it. I need to copy the fed ex tracking number and send it to the cc company too. I'm going to work on that today.
