Hi everyone,
OK I've done searches and read plenty of posts putting down FMS, so I don't want this to become an FMS trashing thread. If anybody from FMS reads this then please take it as constructive criticism.
Truth is I live in Canada, if I lived in the US and didn't have to spend so much for long distance call charges then maybe I'd have the patient to call and deal with FMS, the've got great prices and I realize it's a part-time gig and that's also fine. But, because of certain restrictions with phoning and even faxing, as their fax machine at (410) 381-6546 isn't taking any faxes and I tried 7 times! I've decided to try sourcing my parts elsewhere.
I just want to know if anyone knows the make of the lowering springs and the heavy duty strut mounts sold by FMS? I'd like to find another distributor of these parts. FMS doesn't make the parts, so if they are being manufactured then SOMEONE else has to be carrying them. I've found the KYB GR2 at another online place for about $10 more and that's ok, remember I also have to deal with the exchange rate and brokerage fees as well ))
Again, I reiterate, I'd love to deal with FMS, I like their choice of products and their prices, but I just find it very inconvenient to have to jump through hoops to buy something from someone. If they answered their e-mail in a resonable amount of time or had some way of at least warning potential customers that waiting times could be very long, at least then the onous would be placed on the customer. I have my own side-line and I clearly tell people that when they ask for something it may take some time because of my other priorities and responsibilities, then if they still want to deal with me, they've been warned.
Any help anybody might have would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Stefano
