I received my new GM shroud a couple of weeks ago and it has almost identical scratches and blemishes as 169INDY's. The worst of which is on the top passenger side. This is not a scratch, it's a gouge at least a 1/16 inch deep. Nothing you are going to polish or buff out. If it was in the inside or the bottom, I wouldn't mind so much, but not on top where everyone will see it.
After going through the trouble of contacting GM Parts Giant, writing a letter of explanation, sending them photos they asked for, and obtaining an RMA number, I sent it back and they are going to send me another one.
I was hoping that I just got a bad one and that the replacement would be better. After seeing what they sent 169INDY, now I'm thinking they're are going to send me the same as what I got originally or maybe worse. I'll just have to wait and see.
And 169INDY, you're expectations are not too high! When you spend good money for a brand new item, it should not come to you looking beat up.
