here is the reply I got.

 

 

 

Dear Nick

 

In to the regards to you making accusations about the business i run, i want

to set the picture straight.

The kits in the one picture(Blue 300zx) is a leather kit,i was an agent of

an American company called (custom interiors) who did leather and vinyl kits

and not katzkins!

Custom interiors went out of business 2 months ago from the owner having an

accident in his 300zx. I took over there vinyl kits.

The vinyl in the kits, are high quality uv protectant. and once installed

look great and last years.

but as i see you have just made an assumption on me misleading you.

 

The vinyl kits I provide are 55 pounds and not 200 pounds. There is a

leather kit in the uk for 500 pounds and that is just for the seats the

panel trim is another 200 pounds. Not to mention the additional charge for

the gear stick gaiter, hand brake gaiter ( this information comes from your

local Z CENTER website in the uk i have attached a link for you to see

http://www.zcentre.co.uk/interior/leather.shtml as well as other companies

in the usa doing the same kits http://www.importsextreme.com/ and charging

more!!!

 

I want to show you this site that does the trim kits for 300zx http://www.ztoys.net

he charged his customers and didn't even send the kits (he stole there

money). I am in not associated with these companies.

 

You received your kit within the shipping time 4 to 10 days and the kit

was not in any way damaged or missing pieces it was complete. once installed

will finish the zx off nicely.

I have been in the trim business a long time and sold meny kits without

complaint and don't rip people off. and i am a 300zx enthusiast.

I have ended all my auctions until this is worked out.

I look forward to your reply

in reply this is what I have written to him

 

 

 

I am not in any way interested in comparing your kit to what other people are selling nor am I trying to say the kit was damaged, arrived late or had pieces missing, I am concerned that what your pictures showed was not what was sent. And also the fact I had to use the original cloth trim as a template and cut out from your trim using them as a guide to get them to fit was unacceptable.

 

As I had mentioned before If I had wanted to muck about cutting out templates myself, I would have gone and bought the vinyl for £12 at my local fabric shop.

 

The fact that other places sell kits at a much higher price has no bearing on you advertising kits with photos of something that is far from being the actual product.

 

I have got the kit mostly installed in my car and looks good, but in no way has anything to do with your manufacturing of the kit. All you have done for me is supply vinyl for me to cut out myself at an astronomical cost.

 

So to go over why I am upset with this product simply for you

 

1, Product advertised was not product received.

2, Every piece did not fit without complete alteration.

 

 

My request for a full refund stands.

 

Nicholas Hart

Too right :) This muppet seems to be completely missing the point :xxx:

Anyone can sell bloody vinyl!

He also sells, crocodile skin belts too.......... but he sent the wrong size and colour!
