Default Purchased a quad exhaust from TRC-Tuning

Sup guys !

As the title says, I purchased a quad exhaust from TRC-Tuning for my Lexus is350.

I emailed them on 22/3/2014 and a guy named Mike answered my E-mails.
I gave him my information to make the purchase for me because their site is confusing, anyway he gave me the bill in format of PDF.
So I wired the money to their account on 23/3/2014 Knowing that as he told me that they will be on a holiday to the first of april.
Today is the 8th of April and yet they didn't respond to my E-mails or phone calls, it is always the answering machine.
I called them like 80 times with the answering machine always answering.

So what should I do ?

Wow, I would have never wired money to an overseas company. Id want some protection using a credit card in case things went sour. Good luck!

Glad they responded back. What are your plans to fit that in your rear bumper?

They send me the bill by email in PDF and a member here already purchased this exhaust from the company and they send it to him. Plus it's an 11 years old company. All that made me confidant to wire the money.

Well for the rear bumper clearly I will have to cut it to make a space for the two tips, but I will cover it with a Duraflex diffuser which I bought via Ebay.

For future reference, if you wire money like that, always use paypal because they always protect the customer with transfers like this. Secondly, There are a few quad exhaust on here that i really like. Looking forward to see ing how it comes out

I believe VIP Auto Salon also has them in stock, both the body kit and the quad exhaust. They gave me a quote few months ago.

Maybe, but obviously it's a legit company that's why I transferred the money.

They actually have WALD and TOM. Both of them are expensive.

.

People have been screwed by legit companies before whether intentional or unintentional. Thats where the added protection of using Paypal/credit card comes in helpful.
