Default Do not buy from leo_cos

Do not buy anything from this guy you will receive broken parts or will not receive your parts at all I ordered headlights top grille side skirt and rear crash bar from him and I did not receive this side skirts or the rear crash bar from him. I just got the headlights and top grille today after waiting 3 months for the parts and they were both broke. The tab that holds the grille in is broke off and missing. The headlights are broke inside where leveling motor is. I sent him 600 gbp for trash. There are no backs on the headlights and one bulb holder that goes on the side is missing. This is just a fair warning do not buy from him

PhPbb forums allow the administrator or moderators with the same priviliges to ban the user by IP adrress not just user name. Therefore the pc becomes banned
