Message	I've been noticing similar comments on here lately. I hear there's some sort of political falling out going on there right now; sounds like a particularly bad time to be doing business with them. I hope something works out for you. What's the current state of the parts - are they actually installed on your car? In case you haven't found out since, you do not have to remove the engine to get downpipes out. Good luck!
