4056, Follow-up to POS CF Altezzas post...
Posted by tim97rs, May-12-01 09:04 AM
I got Carbon fiber altezzas billed as being street legal and not needing specialy colored lights, well after putting them on, on each side of the tail lights was a 4 inch gap of clear plastic letting white light show...this not legal!!!! not to mention the center piece will not mount flush with the tail lights and they used white silicone to seal the clear plastic to the dark background lights!!! Real geniouses!
Well, i called APC and bitched about the quality of thier product and after a week or so of phone calls and e-mail i finally got someone who said they would send me out a new set of tail lights, FREE!! Didn't even ask for the old ones back. Will let everybody know the outcome.....

Good luck, I wrestled with APC over a set of Altezzas i owned. They promised me the new (at the time) G2's because my G1's red lenses popped out onto the inside on the housing.

It took 6 months for me to get my G2's, calling every week because the kept promising me they would arrive in two weeks. Never did. Finally, after mailing a letter to someone above the putz I was talking to, I got them. And then sold them and Im now wearing Carbon fiber altezzas, which look great on my car.

He hee, i've had 3 sets of altezzas.
