i also forgot this gem of a response

Mr anthony. We just don't want to sell to you. So please don't waste my time as I know you cannot afford. There was a time americans could afford. But they dig there own grave for chinese junk. And we as parts makers don't have any respect for americans any more. Yes US was our biggest customers. But US became so bankrupt that we don't want to sell any more to you all.

lol, Accolade has been like that for years. It's nothing new. Just search the forums going back to 2003. The service is complete crap, and the fitment of their products is worse than trying to fit a 3'' round peg into a 1'' square hole.

it sucks, because as far as i know, theyre the only company that makes anything remotely close to what i want. Oh well, i'd rather be upset about knowing i cant get the part i want than be upset about losing or wasting the money and still not getting it.

Looks like they're still catering to all the millionaire Daewoo owners.

What a dumbass response. Clearly he has never looked at a global comparison of GDPs or we would see the the US is still the world's largest manufacture of products and the average American is about 20x wealthier than the average world citizen. Also, the last time I checked the US produces almost 73% of the world's food. We aren't poor, we are just nice enough to give their **** *** countries food to put in their ****ing mouth for FREE!!!!!!!!! **** you people the think America is evil or Americans are ****ty people, we feed your god damn children.

Hi Sir,

Thank you for your review.

Please note that we do not ship 1 item only to USA any more. This because that Cargo Clearance charge is really high and also customer now has to get it his own broker to File something called ISF.

So due to this we only serve customers who order parts as a Complete Body kit.

We have complain due to our US Dealer went bankrupt in USA. He accepted lot of orders from forums and never paid to us ( Factory ). As you know US Automotive sector including many big companies went bankrupt overnight due to the US Economic crisis,

Unlike Chinese manufactures who copy products we designed parts for the Lancer and we still do. US customers have been our biggest customers. But sadly Chinese companies in USA copied our products for the Lancer and sold on ebay for really cheap amounts, So it was not viable for us to design any more for the Lancer Community.

As a company we have diversified to many other businesses as body kit business is not viable for us any more,

But we do ship our existing products to many other markets including Canada ( www.body-kit.com/overseas.html )

Your suggestions will be taken into account and will do an inquiry,

Thank you very much for your Feedback.

Regards
Dimantha Jayawardena
Accolade

Note that 2 different salespeople gave me 2 different prices on the hood.

$900 shipping??????? I shipped my Honda S2000 across the country for less than that.

I'm baffled by these responses, as you can just about ship a motor from overseas for what they seem to want for shipping. I'm also appalled by the lack of professionalism on their part too.

This one is too good not to cross post.
