well yah i would be ____ed if something didnt fit right. but before i would try installing anything, i would look it over from top to bottom, front to back. being defectice/broken/cracked/dented and not fitting right are 2 differnt things.

using your hood as an example, u never would have known it wasnt going to fit properly w/o putting it on, but u should have seen the dent the minute you took the wrapping off of it. that is an obvious dent. you shouldnt have even attempted to put in on the car. whether it was a bad mold and messed up when it was manufactured or some how got damaged thru shipping really at this point doesnt matter bcuz u did install the hood and according to his posted return policy he cant refund or return it.

what i would do in this situation is sell it (u said u had a guy in ct that was gonna give u 350 for it). take the 350 and just eat the loss.

its not just the dent its also the fitment that was there mistake and that is undeniable that fitment was there mistake. Either way i dont think im being an a** by asking for 50 or 100 bucks i think i have ever right to be ____ed about this. Either way im done talking about it because the majority of people will stick up for bBist becuase they like there products but 80% of them prolly never even had a product from them.
