Angry Invidia Q300 WTF IS THIS!?!?!?!?

Right so I ordered my Invidia Q300 exhaust a few weeks back from CVR motorsports (http://www.cvrmotorsports.com/store/...roduct_id=4011). Now everything arrived today so I take it out of the box and look what I find!!!!!





WTF is this huge back box in the rear????? Has anyone seen this before? It supposed to be two individual canisters not one large rear back box!!!

and how does the product above look like the picture below????



If anyone can shed any light on this I'd appreciate it, although I think they packaged the wrong parts!!! Robby can you shed any light on this?

and I will be contacting CVR about this, so I'll update you guys on what happens

WTF that's what I didn't want to hear, do you know if the rest of the piping is the same as the Sedan?

I'm really pi$$ed ofF I don't want to send the whole exhaust back, does anyone know if only the back box differs? My receipt specifically says G35 M@THER F@£&ING SEDAN!!!

it looks like the xpipe and the pipes that go to the HFCs are the same but other than that, it's completely different

Ah man Maz, that is horrible.

From the pics, the X pipe on the coupe looks smaller than on the sedan, but it may just be the angle. Just contact CVR and hopefully they'll make it right for you.

I suggest you box everything back up and wait for them to give you authorization to send it back. They better compensate you somehow, such as refunding you the shipping charges at the very least for the error.

Un-freekin-believable.
So sorry to see this.

If it was packed wrong, it's not just Invidia at fault.
The vendor should open boxes & check the product before shipping.

Thanks for trying to make me feel better guys. It's all boxed up ready to be sent back, but I have to wait until Monday to call them (as they don't work weekends).

I'm willing to pay the delivery charge back to CVR and then have them send it over to FL but they have to cover the cost of international delivery back to me, if not then I'll be looking at probably another $400-$600+ purely on delivery charges

On a side note the JIC Magic coilovers are the correct ones and the weathertech floor mats are good as well, they should keep my mind of things until I get the exhaust back, I just can't believe someone could make such a retarded mistake

Regardless, they should cover you some of that cost since it isn't your fault. I mean, why should you have to pay the entire amount of the shipping cost, TWICE?

Defratos, let them return the $400-$600 that you're gonna pay, back to your credit card. It is unacceptable for you to pay for their mistakes.

They'll just pass it along to Invidia, if they packed it wrong.

Thanks for the advice guys, I will try tomorrow and see what they say. I really hope they would just accept it back.

As for what went exactly wrong I'm not sure, because on the box it has the exact same SKU number as the one for the Sedan, but the exhaust diagram shows that it is the one for the Coupe and not sedan, so it's either someone just matched the SKU numbers and didn't bother checking if they were for the coupe or sedan.

Ugh still got more than a day to wait for them to open. I would feel much better once I've shipped the exhaust back.
