Never buy from Wicked
Shame on me for trying to find a deal.
So I was looking for deals for either a front lip or an Aero Kit front bumper.
Agreed on a $1500 deal with this Ebay seller:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2012-2014-Po...beb3ed&vxp=mtr
After 8 days of waiting for a tracking number i got no response so I filed a complaint with Ebay.
Got this response back from the seller:
Seller's message:
"1. If you look in the shipping section of the ebay ad, it says 11-15 business days. The item was paid for on sep 13, it has been 8 business days, 11-15 business day is sep 29-oct 3 Why would you open a case when it's only been 8 business days, Please close the case immediatly, your item is in manufacturing and will be ready to ship in 11-15 "Business days" from the time of payment, which was on the 13th. Ebay, why would you remove the funds from our paypal account, when we are not in breach of anything. Look at our ebay shipping date estimate, it clearly says 11-15 business days, PLEASE CLOSE THIS DISPUTE NOW!"
So I felt maybe I was impatient so I closed the dispute.
4 days past the due date for tracking number and I called Wicked.
They made the wrong bumper. GT3 style bumper instead of 991 Aero. No apologies or comp of free shipping (which is a whopping $350 BTW). No upkeep or customer care.
Than read into the online ad a bit more and I would have to spend $1000 more to get the right parts to even have this bumper fit on my car. The salesman or employee at Wicked I spoke with tells me he would give me a call back with a quote for the extra parts.....long and behold.....no call back.
Tried filing another dispute with Ebay and am unable to since the first one was closed.
At this point fed up and just ordering parts from Suncoast. Should have done this from the beginning.
Filing a formal complaint with Paypal and Ebay (who put me on hold on the phone for 30+mins).
P-Car friends DO NOT...I REPEAT...DO NOT make purchases from Wicked Motorsports!!!! Stick with Suncoast and/or other OEM sellers.

I learned a similar lesson buying wheels from a member. 'Stick with Suncoast' is wise advise. I wish you the best.

I saw a few of their cars on ebay and thought they looked pretty cool until I did a research on them and they are notorious for bad service and lies. Never considered them after that. People don't feel compelled to start a thread unless it's really bad.

Same here with tires. You trust someone will do the right thing and over a few hundred dollars they become "difficult".

I have bought many things on eBay. Not for my car but several other products and if you know what you are buying I have not had a bad experience.
I have seen the Wicked merchandise on eBay and there was always something about their presentation and answers to inquiries that have always made me feel suspicious. And if you google or search here or Rennlist only bad experiences seem to exist. Hope you get your money back.

eBay is great. I have over 500 transactions. No issues.
Wicked sucks
Wicked sells on eBay
Wicked selling on eBay doesn't make eBay bad
Wicked has a horrendous reputation
Like all companies/vendors/service providers ..
Do your homework and background checks
If Wicked had burned me. I'd be flying out to CA to settle the issue in person.
Stay away from Wicked
