Well I received my Kouki Tail lights thursday, aparently I wasnt there to receive it but my brother was, what pisses me off is UPS damages my body filler by either running it over, stepping on it etc etc. Well they think they are smooth and since the box was damaged and ripped in half they try to retape it as if nothing happened. What gripes me is they dont even knock on the door since my bro was there to receive it and sign for it well the UPS man just leaves it there and runs off. In the pics you'll see some of the damage spots, it may seem like its not much damage its because I had to bang it out and try to straighten it out it literally had a 90* bend where the metal gets thin. Oh well luckily I called the company I bought it from and they are sending a new piece for free, and UPS will pay them back. It just pisses me off I spend $500 on tail lights and UPS damages part of it and tries to play it off as nothing happened. As you can see I did a decent job bending it out.

that sucks man, there was an anti-ups thread like 2 days ago...lol

if you dont mind my asking where did you get the piece from, i need a lower piece because i already have the lights and the center piece, so i just need a lower piece but everywhere i see they only have all the parts as a package

if you want i'll sell you this one, once I get my new one. I'll sell it to ya for $60 shipped. You could probably fix it with a little bondo. The shop I got it from is called http://www.bnecustoms.com they sell the kit for $495 shipped, I'm not sure if they will sell the body filler alone doesnt hurt to ask. They are sending me a new piece b/c it was insured.

damn, that's f'ed up! But you were insured so not really a big problem. I guess just the fact that the UPS guy didn't tell you & just ran off. I don't use them anymore from bad prior experiences. USPS is what I use mostly now.

I've never had a problem with UPS, going on ten years now.. packages big & small, heavy and light, square or long.. never a problem.

knock on wood.

There are many bad UPS stories, especially around Christmas.

One incident (not on the boards, heard this elsewhere) involved a fruitcake. Someone at UPS had opened it, eaten half, then put it back in and taped it up before delivery.

People do stupid things. Don't blame UPS, blame idiots.
