2500 views and no response. wonder how much business this just cost them? bad news travels fast!!
There are five possible likelyhoods IMO at this point:
1. Times are tough and they are ready to toss in the towel, so why bother with the bickering, which might be justified
2. They are so busy raking in the dough they don't care to bother with the hassle with one upset customer.
3. They are clueless
4. They are on vacation
5. All the negatives mentioned in this post have merit and are not defensible
We'll see. 
6. they don't read this blog and/or don't have a PC.
Kinda thought #3 covered that.
But as this saga continues, it does seem there is some effort to resolve, which is good for everybody, and since they did make a big splash early on on their inital offerings, and had everyones attention with High dollar stuff, and muti post tuning, etc, they seem awfully slow on handling this bump in the road, (pun intended) and a lot of damage results from getting out of the gate late on issues like this. Hope they learn from this. 
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

Let's keep this on topic and stop the bickering back and forth. I'd hate to have to lock this down and ruin the guy's hopes at hearing back from XV

I have the pictures on my phone; just don't know how to get them off and post.
go to phone pic, options, send, email to yourself, opened in your email you should be able to do whatever with them.
If your phone and computer have bluetooth you can connect and transfer them that way.

Bumping isn't gonna help, if you read the O/P's posts XV has been in contact with him & is doing something, whether it is enough only time will tell... I'm sure XV has watched enough companies bashed here to know there is no winning answer at this point, the winning answer was to have never shipped bad parts in the first place or to have dealt with it quickly when there was a problem... They missed both those opportunities so the only direction this thread will go isn't gonna benefit them... Good Luck to the O/P in getting this straightened out...

I though it was supposed to be high end stuff.
That K frame is a joke.
I'm glad I didnt spend my money with them.
If you are looking for handling: go Hotchkis (I did, but havent installed the parts yet, but everything looks awesome and price is right, they just need to come with a rack & pinion offering).
If you want to switch to coil overs for clearance issues for customs headers work or custom engine install. Alterktion all the way.
Magnumforce also has VERY POOR customer service. They crewed me sending me the wrong parts to Peru and didnt want to take em back and eat the shipping and import costs....they made me buy all the parts I needed again and gave me a $50 buck discount or something like that. And the second time around they shipped me the parts incomplete...i didnt bother to complain again...i turned my own spacers on my shop's lathe-
Im not even going to look at XV the Xv website ever again!!!!
Domingo,
It must be tough building a car in Peru, but how cool it's going to be once you have it finished.
We hope everything goes smoothly when you get around to installing the Hotchkis parts. We’ve
had great success with our power steering box and quickener and if you want to contact our
tech department PM us we'd be happy to help you source the parts.
We are proud to have Hotchkis parts on cars all over the world. Keep us updated with your project.

It really is way past time for this to be taken care of... Where's G Machine Dart? Where's DQ Hemi? Kinda funny how they were regulars here but now all is quiet..
In order to make this thread pop up in a search about XV Motorsports we need to make sure we Include the full company name in each post, the more often the better... so make sure you include XV Motorsports in your post

john went running for the hills when people asked legit questions and asked for data for his claims and people didn't just take his word on things.
pete i heard got his pee pee slapped by his bosses because he got quite nasty with a few guys over the xv stuff.
