Ok, Jason, young man. First off I’m 70 years old and I’ve been married a loong time. I am also a VW aficionado, I bought my first VW, a 1959 in 1968. I’ve been buying aftermarket parts for that forever. She knows about the buddy thing, the get a PO Box trick and even the separate bank account...
I’ve made two orders with Stage 3 in the last couple months and had no problem. It took a while to get my Raptor grille but they let me know up front that it may take some time to get their order in. About three weeks later I called in and was informed they were in and being sent the next day...
I ordered one from them. They took the money out of my bank and sent me an email saying it shipped. Two weeks later I emailed them and they said they had complications and it wouldn’t be sent. Cost me $10.00 For some BS reason. Hope it’s better for you.
I didn’t want to mess with the camera, so I just pried the emblem off and applied the decal I bought off Ebay. They sell the backing plate/camera base on EBay for about $60.00.
