    I contacted the seller because I thought it was an honest mistake. I gave them the benefit of the doubt when I shouldn't have I guess. This is a bummer.

    You have to "create a return" and wait 3 business days before eBay will do anything. (I called to verify and try to exopodite the process since there are other cases, but they wouldn't),

    I'll report back on the outcome as time goes on.

    At this point, I’m getting concerned with some of the not so good stories. I’m not sure what to make of my tracking info....

    If you have an ePacket tracking number, you are most likely getting LEDs

    Okay so they just seem to have poor communication and the tracking info was totally useless. They tried to deliver it 12/6 and I was out of town until last night.

    Just got back from the usps, the box and packing were totally fine and nothing broken at all.
    This one from motor fans is two piece, the logo is a screwed in insert, which is nice if I want to put a light bar there later on. It came assembled, the letters are all consistent and I haven't seen any blemishes on it yet.

    Just out of the box.....

    I was at the dealer today and the grilles on the 2018s look cool enough that I would have kept it and save the dough.
    They also have all the safety crap that could be nice at times, adaptive cruise control (that should really work the transmission), lane departure and collision avoidance.

    i actually messaged MOTORFANSCLUB before purchasing the China Pro grille and they told me that as long as you put a message that say "must be shipped from US" upon purchasing, they will send it from US and it should be faster. purchased it yesterday lunchtime and by the afternoon i already have a UPS tracking number. im really hoping that everything goes well this time around. its my second time purchasing this as well.
