    Joseph,

    Typically, when a person pays for insurance on an item, car, or house, that amount is not refundable even if it is not used. We did in fact refund you your shipping at 100% of the cost as we stated, and now have refunded the insurance cost as well to put your mind at ease.

    This is what I'm waiting for. Based on the posts so far regarding the add-on, all this talk of shimming, gaps, power coat color mismatch, etc has me uneasy for what is currently available.

    Not a deal breaker by any means but do you guys think it will be possible to get these lines matched up on the one piece bumper?

    If you did refund my shipping 100% then what is that line item for $10 on the attachment I included where the first word on the line item is “shipping.” So was that $10 for something else besides something to do with shipping? If you refunded 100% of the money I paid for shipping then I would have been credited $59. Plain and simple. Twist it around all you want but your wrong once again. And please don’t credit that amount or anything else. I’m beyond done with you. Should have gone with my second choice which was Joe and Mobtown. My bad!

    And since you won’t email me back and will only respond here I’ll do the same. I finally received the bumper today and have not opened it and will not open the packaging. Seeing how your so far behind on orders you can take mine and send it to whoever you want. I really don’t want it anymore. Just let me know and I’ll have it sitting next to my front door ready for pick up.

    Sorry, we responded in the same form of media as you. Had you sent us an email we would have responded in email. You posted to this thread, so we responded to this thread. If you'd like to return the bumper, thats not a problem. Just ship it back to us (insurance included) with your original order number on the label and we'll issue you a refund after its inspected for damage.

    You’ve never have filed a claim with Fedex or UPS or even the USPS where if an item was not shipped or you did not ship an item and you paid extra for added insurance, the whole amount was not credited? Sorry, insurance is part of shipping and when you get credited for shipping costs UPS and FEDEX (like you use) does not keep the amount you paid for added insurance. The whole amount is credited. I have a Fedex account and have been a business owner for over 20 years and have also sold and shipped over 1,000 items on eBay. I know all about shipping. Nobody keeps any amount paid for shipping when crediting a shipping cost. And your comparing home or car insurance to shipping an item? Nice comparison!

    You don’t stay in business with the same name for over 20 years if it isn’t successful.

    I’m actually on this thread one last time to apologize. I should have never said anything on this thread as this isn’t the place. Two, my intention was just to let people know that it was going to take about 19 weeks to receive my bumper which was right at two months longer than the estimate. I should have just said that and left it at that.

    Sorry to Lee and all the TacomaWorld members for adding a bunch of stuff that should never have been said on this site.

    Cheers!

    Thank you for this. SSO, keep doing your thing! Don't let a couple of salty customers tarnish all of the hard work you guys have put in. Love your bumper and cant wait for the stage 2!!!

    Haven't read through all the replies, and the gaps and color mismatches and whatnot had me a bit hesitant..

    BUT the way I see SSO handling things, assuming it's not all talk, makes me want the stage 2 wings even more.

    I've got the Slimline sitting in the back of my shop still, but it seems well built.

    Haters gonna hate, good shit guys.

    Mine was lined up nearly perfectly but I guess the weight and everything just makes it shift while driving because now it is back to contacting the fenders and making a little overlap with the bumper. Pretty annoying having to loosen everything, shift it all back, and tighten everything up again every few days. I have tried to make it as snug as I can when I get it lined up but nothing seems to keep it in that spot for long. Any suggestions?

    I don't feel like it is the nuts backing out but I am happy to try that. It is more just the whole bumper shifting in the slots since they are made to be able to give a little play.
