All,
I ordered a brown carpet kit years ago, I ordered the best quality one. (i
think i had a choice...and i KNOW if i did have a choice - i ordered the
best available.... ;-) )
i liked them, BUT... the one thing that bothered me was that the
transmission portion
had a long stitch (at an angle i think) holding (what appears to me) as two
'scrap' pieces together to form a whole. it seemed an attempt to use up the
precious bits in any way they could.
keep in mind this was not done in order to form the keystone
curve. i checked. it was a poor craft-person-ship. IMHO. i could be totally
wrong, but my original did not have this same splice.
i was going to send it back, but shipping costs and all were too much
to deal with-when it ain't my fault. i decided, 'okay, it is kinda hidden--i
will 'live' with it' but as you can tell i am still upset and have not
forgotten this.
i am still a very good customer to them. so i am not bashing them... but out
of principle i should have sent it back.
i suppose i wasn't in the mood to deal with it. too bad.
just my two cents.
