Default Andys Autosport - Scammers?

I sent a mail to Andys Autosport asking if they had a WW RS lip in stock, and they could get it and ship it out from their location in 2 weeks.

So I payed for it in forhand.

Now 4.5 Months later I still havent recieved anything.

Ive sent alot of mails and they say its been a mixup in the order etc.etc. and they will recieve it soon, but it all seems to be lies and BS.

And considering I bought a full WW RS kit from a guy on this forum I dont need the lip any more.


I said I wanted to cancel the order but they didnt seem to be care.

Ive sent alot of mails where I kindly ask for them to return my money.

So any suggestions on what to do now?

Regards TineMelk, Norway

Please. Please, PLEASE tell me you paid with a credit card. If so just dispute it and youll have your money back. You'll have to check with your card provider to see if the have a time limit to where you can do this.

I always pay with a credit card and then just payit off cash once i get the goods. I normally give a company 2-3 weeks to deliver or at least give me a tracking number. It should not take that long to deliver something to you. I have shops that take money and they know they dont even got the **** in stock.

Yes they are scammers. They have been reported to the BBB quiet a number of times. If I would have known that I wouldn't have ordered from them...had to figure out the hard way. I had to have my payment retracted from them through my credit card company.

I got my WWRS kit from there and they shipped it pretty quick, but that was 2 years ago. 2loww.com has ripped me off though when I ordered a lip off there one time. It seems if they don't have it in stock, they just rip you off!

yeah, they suck i bought a carbon fiber hood and it took 4 months. I called and called and they gave me a line of bull that the war was using all the carbon fiber and seibon didn't get their shipment, then i call seibon and they tell me everything is in full production. I eventually got it but obviously this company just takes the money and uses it then sends you the product when it is good for them

I had a buddy who ordered a hood for his Integra from them. 6 months later he found out the hood was on "backorder." Finally AAS agreed to buy a hood for him from VIS and ship it to him. He called VIS after AAS said they placed the order, VIS told him he was crazy and that it never happened. Good thing he paid with a card. He got his dough back and ordered one the next day straight through VIS, the following friday we put it on his car...

I ordered a lip and sides and a rear bumperf rom them that took about 4 months. Everytime i called they said it would ship out that day and they'd call me back with a tracking number and they never did.

I called the credit card company and told them about it and what do ya know it shows up a few days later.

i ordered my cf hood from them and they told me a certain date but it was actually 2 months later when i got it because it was backordered and had to be shipped from somewhere else to their location in california. a lot of companies relax once they have your money and work at their own pace. could be a mixup but it's really not that hard to be straight up and honest with people if they try at all. hope you get the problem fixed.
