Seibon Carbon Fiber Hoods Defective

[RichieRich]

To all 318ti owners, please review the following email exchange between myself and Seibon Carbon "Customer Support". We all know that the hoods for our cars is the 4-door sedan version. I bought a new Seibon Carbon fiber hood, e36 4-door sedan version, which turned out to be a defective POS. Instead of addressing the issue, the person who responded to me (always refusing to provide a name) did everything in his power to ensure that my problem did not appear related to poor Seibon craftsmanship. The hood was properly installed on my 1995 318ti and the top of it sits a good 5/8" above the fender line (see photo). In the end I let pride and emotion get the better of me and told them I'd found a way to make it work on my own (because they refused to accept responsibility), but the truth of the matter is that I'm stuck with the same defective $600 POS that sits on the car now the same way you see in the photo. So caveat emptor when it comes to buying anything from Seibon my friends....
