Default SacCityCorvette Fangs A+

Hi all,

I recently acquired a 2004 Machine Silver coupe and it became immediately clear that my driveway was not playing well with the car. I have to back in and it was causing me to scrape the frame rails up front. After some research here and reading other people's posts, I decided on the SacCityCorvette C5 fangs in black.

I wanted to take a moment to make this post to say thanks to SacCityCorvette and to share my experience with others considering a purchase. To be clear, I am not affliated with them at all and not getting any kick back as a result of this post.

First off, I liked that they accept Paypal as payment. Made it very simple for me. For the balance I was short, it was automatically deducted from my checking acct (or credit card if necessary).

Secondly, I entered my order around 12:30 or 1pm Central Time, and by 1:52pm the SAME day I had gotten an email with USPS tracking information. Product was delivered to me on Thursday of this past week, only a few days after I ordered.

Lastly, the installation was a breeze (I didn't even jack the car up) and the newfound peace of mind I have is tremendous...and I've only had them on for a few hours!

So THANK YOU SacCityCorvette. Awesome product and outstanding customer service. I wish all companies were like this.

and good to hear about the excellent customer service. I think I need to get a set of them as one of my winter mods.

I had a good customer service experience with them as well. There was an error with my first order which never arrived. They were super friendly and got another order out to me in the mail right away. I definitely appreciate it. Most of the CF vendors that I have ordered things from have been super responsive.

I still need to install my fangs. The little metal tabs that you bolt them through are bent, and I just haven't gotten around to taking pliers to them yet...

I also have one of those driveways. My car had steel plates bolted on, and the dragging caused the hair on my arms to stand up! Like fingernails on a chalk board!

With the fangs, I don't even hear it hit. And they don't wear out! Great product.
