All Poly parts I've ever received have also came in a similar manner. None of which were from Irving, it was from other vendors, so this is obviously standard practice in the poly industry not just something only he does. I was as shocked as you were the first time I received them like that, but as he states after a couple hours sitting out they will form right back into their correct shape.

I just have never seen aero parts (uerathane or not) ever arrive packaged like that. I have the parts sitting out in my patio in the sun now, i will see what they look like when I return from work.
Keeping fingers crossed.

It's probably a good practice to call the vendor and exhaust all other possibilities before a post like this. It might be fair to erase and repost if you guys can't resolve it. Just a thought.
That said, double boxing would be great!
My bumper also shipped this way and is on my car looking sweet for some time now.
It will look great.
Enjoy

I own a complete APTech kit along with a "Duraflex" hood. Despite the Duraflex hood being packaged in a full size box and being delivered via freight, the hoods fitment leaves quite a bit to be desired and the hood had some minor damage. 70% fitment at best. I still need to install hood pins just to keep the hood bent in the proper shape. Very flimsy.
The APTech body parts came in tiny boxes and looked absolutely hopeless on arrival. Sure enough, even in the middle of winter in NY, the bumpers slowly unfolded themselves in the garage over the course of a week. The product fits VERY VERY well. At least 95% as well as OEM parts. Put some faith into it and give it a shot. I doubt you will be disappointed.

I have the parts sitting out in the patio since yesterday...didn't see them this morning, so I will check after work.
