Default Another Heartwarming LGM Customer Service Experience

Two weeks ago, I had a small mishap with my left side LG Pro LT header. While going about 140 on the back stretch at Sebring, my air tube blew off leaving a large hole about 1" off of the flange, thus ending a great day prematurely. Thanks to the Steves (Doten and Rawlins) otherwise known as England Green who were nearby, my header was shipped back to LG who took care of the problem free of charge despite the header being over 2 years old. Expecting a new tube welded in place of the broken one, I was pleasantly surprised to find a brand new header in my car when I picked it up today.

Yet another example of exemplary customer service from a stand-up company and a stand-up guy.

Thanks Lou!

Bill, we've got to get out there on the track next month; that car really stands out with the massive CCW's and Hoosier slicks, it just didn't seem right putting the street compliant rollers back on

keep us updated on your latest upgrades

Sure wish EnglandGreen had a shop here in the San Francisco area !! Maybe you'd consider moving ... I mean ... how good can life be in Florida ???

You've got palm trees ... we have trees on fire ...

You have white sand beaches washed by warm water ... we have a rocky coast patrolled by sharks ...

You have babes in bikinis ... we have lesbians in motorcycle boots ...

Time to move .... (Damn ... now that I think about it ... you got any openings in your shop ??)
