TAZ,
It looks like APC are the only ones that are producing items that are causing complaints, although I read where someone had a problem with a front end clip that didn't fit properly. APC, unfortunately are the only ones making the clear and fiber taillights and most of us have had problems with those. I got my tower brace from Race&Sreet and there were no problems at all with that one. Actually, I'm not sure who the maker was on my brace, maybe R&S themselves. To answer your question, No they don't think we are idiots, they want our money because that's why their in business. It just seems that a couple of places are rushing to get their parts on the market before doing the proper testing. The brace I put on was bright yellow to match some of the yellow items already under the hood and it cost $139. It was excellent quality and fit perfectly.<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
