Default say no (or yes) to Performance-cafe.com!! UPDATED! PLEASE READ

Let me tell you why.

i bought clear side markers from them on dec 31. my order was in the processing stage for 7 days before i finaly emaild them and they said , O we are sorry, our site did not say that they were out of stock, but they are, we should get a new shipment in in 7-10 days. so i said ok, i can wait. then on the 22nd, still nothing. so i email them and ask what the hell is going on and they said that they are not getting any in stock for a long time. after some more talking i found out that they refunded me on the 10th and they just decided not to tell me that until i asked them.

so overall, they have shitty customer service and i do not think you should buy from them.

thank you for reading

That sucks!! I probably would've chewed on someone for a little while, if it were me.[:-]

Thanks for the heads-up.

i was very angry during the entire experience with them, but when ever they emailed me, i was not at home and had to talk back to them using the blackberry, so i couldnt really express myself the way i wanted.

Yep, and the smoked look on silver looks good. At least the shop did a refund - that's better than having to ask for it.

well i got the clear side markers today unexpectedly.. and i told them and said that they tought that it didn't go out but they are glad it did. i said they could charge me agian sence they refunded me and sence i am such a nice guy.

so ever all, becides a few setbacks, i would now say that Performance-Cafe is a good company and i am sorry i gave them a bad name.

mine are tinted, plenty of pics of it in my photobucket album http://s101.photobucket.com/albums/m49/chaos92287/ (page 4 and 5)

if i had a silver car, i would black out the wheels, sidemarkers, taillights, grill, hood, roof, and trunk. but thats just me

i want new rims but i would have to lower it first or right after because the non sport audis look bad with bigger rims and stock suspension. and everything elso you said would look bad if i didnt have those two things first. and i have no money to spend on rims, tires and suspension and get it installed, so ya.

but that is what i would do also
