King Pin Performance

Hi all:

I have ordered some stuff from King Pin: Website and address are below. As I am from Asia, I would like to know if the shop is authentic and reliable? Any feedback and experience shopping with them? If this sale goes smoothly, I am sure many EVO boys here will patronize em'. Let's see how it goes.

There was a thread on here not too long ago about these guys. It had something to do with the subaru guys paying for parts and not getting them.Yet, this vendor had a few cars in SEMA in Las Vegas. I can't remember. I'll try finding a link to it.

I have never had a bad experience with them other than being a little slow with shipment but thats with most vendors depending on the part

I'd be REAL careful. Not so good on the subaru front.

Yes, the shop is definitely leggit. But after weeks and *****ing on NASOIC, I finally got a respond there. They reversed my Credit Card charge. After 5 1/2 weeks of waiting, I got no **** but worries.

Anyway, I ordered from Vividracing and got my APR GTC wing in one week. Kudos to Matt Sanner for great service and efficient follow up. I will definitely recommend you guys to the folks in Singapore.

Cheers.
