| Just wanted to remind everyone to check their chrome parts before leaving the dealership. I have installed chrome parts on my bike and my friends bike. Quite a few times the parts had bad chrome. This included luggage racks, and body panels. One box had 2 left body panels in it instead of a left and right panel. I just received 2 boxes of chrome lower valances tonight shipped in a larger box. None of the 3 boxes were damaged, but the one chrome lower valance had cracked and flaked chome on the display surface so back it goes. Save yourself a trip or extra shipping, check the parts at the counter or have the dealer check the parts before shipping them out to you. Sincerely, Tim |

Tacoma, WA | I noticed that Vicyory tends to lightly pack their chrome, and put it in a LARGE box, so it bounces around, and gets damaged. I had to send pieces back a few times.-----Metalguy |

Southeast Iowa | Amen brother! If there could be a problem with the chrome accessories I've had it!
Late, dented, scracthed, peeling, and a broken weld to boot.
It got so bad for a while my dealer inspected the parts and signed the box before they called me. |

Dale, Indiana | They send all the good chrome to Indiana.
All my chrome (and I ordered it all) has came in ok. (so far)
My dealer did one boo boo (installing a plug) and they ordered the replacement right away.
Only problem besides waiting for weeks and months for some backordered items was the cup holder, and I fixed that myself.
BTW waiting on chrome did not ruin my riding experience.  My tongue hangs out like a happy dog every time I sit my butt on my Vision.

I don't know if it could be this easy, but my spidy senses tell me returns are being repackaged.
You guys need to quit swapping parts!
