Well through the process of my build I have pretty much sought to buy everything new, but came across a mid pipe Broke4.6 had for pretty cheap that would save some cash. Finally we got together and he was able to drop off the pipe to me and I gave him the cash for it. In the pictures I saw the pipe didnt look to bad, but once in person it appeared to have a few more dents than expected. But it was pretty cheap and I figured it would be under the car so what the hell.
When it came time to install the pipe on the car it turns out one of the flanges that mated to the long tubes was bent, and would not create a good seal. As it turns out my car would have been tuned already if not for this. Saddened by the delay I just decided to order a new mid pipe since I did not want to go through the hassle of modifying this one. I let Broke4.6 know what was up with the part I bought. After a short convo we reached a simple agreement for me to return his pipe and he would shoot me back what I paid for it. Done Deal
Im sharing my story for 2 reasons. The first is to highlight the fact that Colton is a stand up guy, who not knowingly, sold me parts I could not use without investing more money in and chose to make it right instead of being a dick. Second is to reiterate the reason why we all sell parts here is to try and help our fellow enthusiasts who work hard for their money, while in the process recovering money we have spent on the parts we need to sell. Not to try and get over and scam fellow members. Anything I have sold in the past I always tell the buyer to keep my number and call me if something is wrong so I can either help them out or return their cash. I hope all of you keep this story in mind the next time you do business.
Having known Colton for a while its good to know that his charachter is what I thought it was. Expereinces like this will get him more business in the future. Colton thanks a lot bro and I will see you later this week. I got you if you need anything ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

+1 to Colton (and his brother) I have bought my seats and S/C kit from him with 0 hassles. Their shop some work on my car as well, and the work was top-notch. They even washed my car.

+1 Colton is a good as guy and his shop does great work, he put on my custom Cam covers on my cobra for a great price. Him and his brother are cool dudes for real, when I went to pick my car car up at his shop I realized he had washed my car and shined up my tires . He even tightened one of my engine mounts that was loose without me even asking him to do it. Colton is a kool cat furshur

That's good to hear because there are some dirt bag sellers on here who are out to get people and some who go out of there way to be dicks when selling you a part I don't get it but I'm glad you shared this story with us and let us know who the stand up people are
