Clima repair #crap

I just got my clima repair buttons (after 6weeks of waiting)for the A/C controls and I am very disappointed. As soon as I opened the box you can tell the poor craftsmanship and lack of attention to detail. They are bent and the texture/color looks like my 2year old son painted them with a toothbrush.

Here are some pictures. I will not be installing them. I much rather my flat blk one's. This product is not worth 100.00 bucks more like 5bucks.

Big thread on Rennlist about these guys. These do not look good. I painted on some Platidip on mine and looks great. $100, you got to be kidding!

I hope you put those on a CC that allows you to dispute the charge. I would return those and not pay anything at all but the return shipping and chalk it up to a mistake.

The set I got were not nearly as bad as those pictured in this thread....mine aren't great and I would never attempt to sell this low quality product anywhere. I'm debating just sanding them down and painting them myself just so they look flat and not "lumpy".

So i guess it's hit or miss... my buddy order a set that are decent and much better than what he had. We installed them today. As suspected, they are smaller and the fit isn't exact. With that being said, it is an improvement to what he had.

Heres a pic:

Not sure I understand your post.
Are you saying these are considered acceptable? (see closeup below from the pic you posted)
