F IE!

ooh ooh i can play this game.

I onced ordered an E36 M3 exhaust from them.

I got it in about 2.5 weeks later, dropped the stock exhaust. Then i noticed the pipes weren’t the right diameter… they sent the nonM3 exhaust. super. put stock exhaust back on.

Call em up, new exhaust on the way. 2 weeks later new exhaust shows up.

Its another WRONG exhaust! Call again, they say they’ll send another. Finally it comes in, its the right one. Buts crap quality, sounds bad, looks bad, fits bad. I end up giving it to a friend.

Meanwhile, i had two crappy exhausts in my garage waiting to be picked up. It took me calling IE THREE times before they finally got picked up. I guess that speaks of the quality…

Well, I am a good six hours from their shop, down in southern California. I purchased my original set of 25mm/22mm bars from them, when the car was a daily driver when I was on a trip to LA to see a drift event. I paid cash under the table…When I called about the problem, I was prepared to purchase a new bar, but they completely stood behind their product. Again, Nice guys when I needed help with camber plates that they didn’t even sell me. I would suggest calling them to order, instead of online orders…

You got lucky. Congrats.

Let me guess: your swaybar separated at one of the tab welds?

It actually broke the tab itself, not the weld…

I don’t think you have much to worry about. I know lots of people using IE bars and never heard of a breakage like that. Maybe it’s a west coast thing

Are you saying people on the west coast don’t drive or use their equipment as hard?

Chuck, mine broke at Summit this past summer. The right-side tab weld failed from inside out. I took it to my cage builder to be repaired… he said sometimes moisture gets into a rushed/improper weld and corrodes the weld. If I can find my pics of the failure, I’ll post one later.
