I agree, but John hasn't posted a number other than the company number... Pete posted a number that gives direct contact & while he may only be an employee he sure pushed the product pretty hard so IMO he can take some heat for this BS... I see it as an embarrassment to the hobby & really to our country that something obviously substandard was sent to a man in Finland.. They may feel he's far enough away he won't do anything... My feeling is the internet has made the world a much smaller place & someone should call them on this....
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

i have talk with John two months a go and he promised to take care of this, also he didnt like my attitude as i post these pictures of the parts to forums, thing was i asked nicely over ten times first but they didnt see anything wrong on the parts, so only thing i can do is show others how those parts look like. Then i did send few link to them and they realise the was something wrong on the parts 
and promised to compensite those issue by giving me discount on the billet upper arms as they told me i can not drive with those bendet tubular ones.Feb 28 we did they did send me documents about and after that i have asked about those over 10times..and ansure is basicly we will let you know when we have those ready.

I was sent a "follow up" email from Scott @ XV asking where I was in my order process (I had a L2 quote front/rear). I said I had heard of quality problems in the manufacturing of the parts, and asked for comments. that was about 2 months ago (ish) and I haven't heard a thing.
Shouldn't they have made efforts to make me feel everything was as it should? Instead, I'm left wondering if I should order...will I get the same problems the OP did in this thread? That makes me nervous. So, no ordering for me.

it seems if they put as much effort into customer service as they do advertising they would be ok. the more ya hear of these problems and how they address them they sure sound like a fly by night operation.
and i agree. if they treated ya right then there would be no problem with your "attitude". or more like it your posts on the net about their pathetic product and crappy customer service.
i hate to do this infomation, as my invest goes down as well and it take time. But im hoping they are learning to do the job right way in future and that people are aware how they treat customers and what kind of quality you get from 12 000dollars even you are looking the best of the best. now if i could undo this i would go to RMS as they assamble everything before they ship them.

I honestly went through looking on XV's site last night....at one point in the past I wanted the tilt steering for my 69...but I can't understand how much money they are asking for everything. I know you have research and design you have to be compensated for....but some (most) parts are really expensive. Another one I saw was the rearview mirror with the built in reverse camera....700 bananas...and on ebay they are going for 400 with a night vision lens.

How about those GM buckles on their seatbelt kit? Classy, huh?
The steering column pricing must be a joke. You can get columns all over the place for way cheaper. The only thing I have ever bought from them was the lower radiator support. Took 3 months to get. I forgot I ordered it until it showed up!

does xv advertise here? banning them would be a good start i think. i would think there should be some legal recourse as well, this is fraud.
Don't hold your breath, advertiser's money is far more important than the people who frequent this place. Just look at the continuing problems with those 5 speed snake charmers from Tennessee and those other guys who sell poorly manufactured Chinese big block parts.
