          Urgh! Keep me posted, very curious to hear your honest feedback on packaging, paint quality, carbon aesthetics and fitment.

              I have a UPS tracking number but states label created but UPS has not received package. So still waiting (anxiously)...

                The last units are done and on their way today

                Looking forward to seeing you guys install these. I'll work on a 3rd batch once reviews are in.

                    Received mine and unfortunately there are multiple major defects with the paint. Here are the pics taken immediately after opening. IMO the packaging was poor and left open the possibility of the piece being twisted. There is a smaller crack in the paint (not pictured) on the other side as well.

                      Damn

                      TBF, the cheap happybuyitnow168s aren't packed well either, but they seem to almost always arrive unscathed.

                      Also, not to be an arse, but that paint line (paint to CF) looks just as bad as happybuyitnow168's

                      I know Rene didn't want to get too close to an exact copy of CSL, but that line seems to be the thing that matters most to people. The cheap diffuser mounts and fits well, color match is good enough, it's that line that's bad and not straight.

                      I won't spend more $ if the piece isn't going to be much better than the $175 happybuyitnow168.

                        Looks like UPS trashed this. Do you have pictures of packaging?

                        I’ll have him claim and replace.

                          Agree, I think the cracks are shipping.

                          FYI: The exterior box is problematic. It is much to flimsy, feels like paper. I was worried before I even opened it because I could see it had been mishandled. This is one of those things where if I have to pay an extra 3 dollars for a better box then so be it.

                          This first picture is the bottom of the box and this is how it arrived. The second picture is the top side where I opened it.

                            Yeah, I took one for the team but at least Matt is going to handle it.

                            Epoustouflant See if he can get the paint line better. For what he is charging it should be.

                            Edit: The paint line is clean and symmetrical on both sides but it would be nice if the titanium didn't come out so far onto the carbon fiber.

                              Dang, that got trashed. Do you have an example of a paint line you'd prefer?

                              Just sent the info over to René for the claim.

                                This is what the paint line looks like on a real CSL. I'm guessing most people would want to get as close to that as possible.

                                Took that image from the carfection video. There a couple more closeup shots of the diffuser in it too: https://youtu.be/d_ifIha9vAc
