Head Unit Install Gone Bad - EvoXForums.com

nobeam · 01-13-2013, 03:23 AM

Just picked up my 2013 Evo from the car audio place and noticed the radio looked good. but my trim was scratched to hell and the right channel is on and off. What a bummer!
Does anyone know how much that trim part cost and is it dealer only?

Its gonna cost what ever the audio shop has to pay to replace the part. Holy hell did they do a number.

You can get aftermarket... can even get a cf piece as well.

Any Ideas where?

rexpeed has cf interior pieces and they are a merchant here as well.

Take that shit back to them. It looks like a couple of 5 year old's installed your stereo.

I wouldnt have even left that shop with that!

GO BACK AND TELL THEM!
Shops have insurance for damage done to customers cars and with such a small piece they might even settle with cash in your hand.
I went to Pep Boys for an alignment back when I had a G35 with a carbon fiber lip. Those idiots let the new guy move my car from the parking spot into the garage. But before he got there he put it in 1st instead of Reverse and went straight into a curb, smashing my lip.
Two weeks later they handed me a check for the total cost to replace, including shipping. Might have gone different if I didnt actually witness the whole thing but needless to say, I got paid.
