GOFASTPARTS.COM is unreliable

I ordered a part from them on Sunday. They claim fast parts fast service and fast delivery. They claim two to three days on most orders. I wrote them after 3 days to check on my orders status. After no response, I decided to call them today. After four days the part had still not been shipped. They had no reason for the delay, the part wasnt on back order and the got the order on unday. so in other words.....STAY AWAY FROM GOFASTPARTS.COM. Not to mention that the sheet I printed with my order info says nothing about the $8 handling fee they charge. Which ended up making them more expensive then Summit. Buyer Beware. Anyone else have any experiences with them.

That's why I go with summit or jegs all the time, 2 days after I order it, I have it.

Can you order a set of headers and come over and help me install them? I have beer. lol. Actually I think I might be developing a exhaust leak from the drivers side manifold.

I stick my head over the passanger side and i didnt notice any excessive heat. On the drivers side though i did. Not sure.

i can spring for the good beer since you are paying for the headers. lol j/k did you get your headers coated? I would like to do them sometime. I was talking with Steve Spohn about using my car as a model for sfc's for convertibles. I wonder with changing to aftermarket headers, and cat would change the design the sfc's.
