actually i was actually told to screw myself. no joke! i was told that the woman was fired and that the parts would be found or money would be sent to me. i think its been a month or so, and nothing. oh well the day after they showed up at my house, i went to summit on my drive home from penn. and bought new ones. i like them alot, but those cracks are bad. school is welding them for free tho . and they throw weights really easy. the front came off last week. no problems though. well worth the money!thanks tony. you like the car?
