Bad DGM Quality CF Glovebox Piece

armor all = bad.. someone told me if u use vinegar it will take off armor all dont quote me on it.. but maybe try it in a small area.. -=P
outdoor 3m ****** ownz
its holds everything on my car.. door sills, badges, gauge pod POS in my dash(that will be molded soon) all my goodies that are coming.. i also put my big ass navigation on the dash with it.. and itheld.. -=P
 
I know this is getting way off topic but, should I ise armor all on all areas I wont be applying things to to protect the dash?
 
just remmeber.. once u start using armorall.. you have to keep using it.. -=P
i know some people says its a old wives tale.. but on my old rx7.. when i stopped using the armorall my dash cracked to s***. -=\
i use meguires dash wipes and vinyl shine on mine.. leather wipes and deep leather conditioner on my leather. -=P.
cus imma pimp
 
Oooooooohhhhh s*** the armorall. I deserve a big (chair) to the face. NO wonder nothing is sticking.
 
Here is my cnversation with the guy who sold me it, he's being an asshole and wont even consider giving me my money back. His reasoning is because the part arrived about 2 or 3 weeks ago. I was unable to fit the part on my car up until a few days ago. He originally told me this part looked brand new from DGM. You look at the pics and tell me if it looks new to you.

DaViper97: hey
DaViper97: is this the same person as baggedyellowp5?
DaViper97: did you get my e-mail?
RimsandKits: already replied to it
RimsandKits: i'll be back on later
DaViper97: come on man you said it was like new
DaViper97: it doesn't fit right
RimsandKits: ok the point is even if it was broken in HALF you have had it way to long to give me this shyt now
RimsandKits: and it was like new
RimsandKits: i never did anything with it, that is how DG is....if you don't like it try to change it with them, they do that
DaViper97: I've had it for a fw weeks and been away
RimsandKits: i traded some other pieces
DaViper97: you definetily didn't describe it like it is
RimsandKits: you've seen the piece already
DaViper97: there are bubbles in the carbon fiber
RimsandKits: if you told me this the same day i would help you but weeks later im not wasting my time
DaViper97: the edges around the vent aren't clean
RimsandKits: that is DG quality dude
RimsandKits: and you've had it for weeks
DaViper97: well you didn't explain it to me, you told me it looked new
DaViper97: how does new mean it doesn't look clean
RimsandKits: honestly don't waste my time with this, if it was within a few days or even a couple weeks i would help you, but its been way to long
DaViper97: and it doesn't fit right...
RimsandKits: what are you talking about?? thats how DG stuff is
RimsandKits: its carbon fiber
RimsandKits: if you want "clean" go buy one of those fake sticker kits
RimsandKits: real carbon fiber is like that
DaViper97: not from the dg pictures I've seen on the forum
RimsandKits: order one from DG, it will be the same shyt, that is the quality, thats exactly how it was when i got it
DaViper97: come on man, just give me my money back for it I'll get it shipped right out to you and I'm sure you can reseell it if you wanna do the same to someone else
RimsandKits: like i said, even if it was broken in 100 pieces nobody would expect me to return it after this long
RimsandKits: and by saying things like "do the same to someone else" thats obviously not helping you
RimsandKits: are you like 16 or something? you sound like a kid
DaViper97: I'm not saying sell it to someone else
RimsandKits: no person with a brain would expect me to return it after this long
DaViper97: well yes, I mean sell it, but describe its condition
RimsandKits: go put a post on protege5.com explaining the situation and how long its been so people can laugh at you
RimsandKits: put a post up so i can laugh
RimsandKits: seriously put a post up saying the problem and how long its been
RimsandKits: and we'll see the response
DaViper97: my father is a lawyer and I explained the situation to him and you didn't describe the item correctly
DaViper97: he told me to just go ahead and take the money back via paypal
RimsandKits: does your lawyer father know how long you've had it and how many times you've looked at it already
DaViper97: but I figured it would be nicer to confront you first
RimsandKits: im not getting into this, i have more important things to worry about, all i'm gonna say is PUT A POST ABOUT THIS AND HOW LONG ITS BEEN then we will see what people say
DaViper97: yes, I have been away from my car to test fitment
RimsandKits: now just because i didn't sell you the other pieces you want to do this
DaViper97: no I dont care about the other pieces
RimsandKits: im sorry but i can't alter the fit
RimsandKits: thats exactly how it came from DG
RimsandKits: if you don't like the fit they will replace it
DaViper97: no they wont
DaViper97: I already talked to them
DaViper97: they said maybe they'd replace it if you asked them
RimsandKits: no not maybe
RimsandKits: they would
DaViper97: but not someone who's bought it from the original purchaser
RimsandKits: i've done it before
DaViper97: I talked to amie today
RimsandKits: you fuked up by saying you bought it from me
DaViper97: no I didn't
RimsandKits: either way how you are being i don't wanna waste my time calling them for you
DaViper97: she needed a record for a name
DaViper97: to replace it
DaViper97: to see when the order was placed
RimsandKits: yea i know, im out, have a nice night
RimsandKits: if you want do the post that i told you about and we'll talk again after
DaViper97: dont make me be an ass and dispute payment
RimsandKits: you are already being an ass
RimsandKits: so thats a done deal


Should I just dispute payment with paypal? This is the forum member "yellowbaggedp5"

yeah, armor all is bad. a little bit of rubbing alcohol would have taken it off. dilute the alcohol in water if you are paranoid about plastic trimming that might get messed up. i use meguiar's and it works better and lasts longer than armor all.

as for dgm, i only have their CF lip (came with the bumper). it sorta looks like it's a completely FG lip with CF sandwhiched between resin layers. anyway, when i held the lip up to the sun, i can see inconsistencies in the CF, but when it is mounted on, no one can tell. fitment could be better, but most of it is a result of poor bonding job by the previous owner. overall, it's a VERY nice piece. if fiberglass was as flexible as urethane, i wouldn't have had ANY problems. as for now, you have to REALLY look hard before you can see where there are imperfections in terms of fitment. also, i painted over the CF (not a fan of CF), so the inconsistencies in CF that you can't see anyway are now taken care of.

i also have dgm's fiberglass grille. after seeing the 2loww fitment issues as well as seeing sky lab's samples, i am proud to say i have a DGM grille. fitment is as close to perfect as the autoEXE one. it's snug, it's even, and there aren't any weird gaps. mind you, this was just a quick little test fit i did just to see how it mated up. and mate it does! good job DG! not sure about interior pieces as i do not have any and am not planning on having any. but with the pieces i do have from them, i give them a thumbs up.
 
daviper is cool as s***-- i bought a $10 product from him and he gave me TONS of support until i get it all installed- sucks this guy is being such a dick... at fist i was like ok- he doesnt wanna refund, thats not tooooo bad-- but refusing to even call amie... man what a douschebag-- **** baggedyellowp5(fu)

The more I look at dgm cf pictures I continue to see that their molds are the problem. Look at this pic of their cf side radio pieces someone posted. The quality of the cf may be good....but look at the fitment on the right piece at the bottom (yikes! to think someone paid around $50 for that?!?!?!?).

Thats my car, weird seeing a pic in someone elses post.

The fitment isnt as bad as shown in that pic, nobody ever looks at it from that angle. I am happy with the piece.

Regarding the glove box trim, Moeed has the same fitment issue on his. Same mold I bet.
 
viper how much did u pay him for the part?i have a dremel i can prolly owrk it to fit and i dont wanna see u get screwed.. only problem is i wont have the money till next friday.. let me know.

please excuse how dirty my car is.. with all the other stuff in my life cleaning the car just isnt a priority rite now -=)
 
DaViper, you were calm and cool with the person who sold it to you. Homedude got all emotional on you. Yeah, he doesn't want to own up to his possible mistake. Not good.
 
sorry viper that guy was always an assholei would have never bought from him, but you probably didnt know him as long as me. anyone remember when he got his ugly ass advans and got pissed because ryanjayg told him politely he didnt like them?
 
the hardest thing about putting that center trim is.. was figuring out that you have to take that black rubber grommit thing off and attach it over the CF.. LoL.. it took me a hour to figure that s*** out.. -=) you know the thing right around the shifter..
OT.. matt.. ur box should be there today -=P
