Anyone ordered from Options Auto Salon?
aka optauto.com, I ordered my springs from them and i got a message a few hours after that saying they were out of stock, however when i clicked the order button their website claimed they were instock, well i replied to them and explained i didn't care about backorder, i just wanted my money back that i paid for xpress shipping, well they replied and said they just got them in but their website still says out of stock, has anyone ever ordered from them? I don't know if they are giving me the run around or if they have lazy web ppl. I heard they were quite repritable, was i wrong with this assumption?

I;ve orderered from them many times. I have never had a problem, items were always in stock, and when you order it tells you if its instock or not. Also they have the best prices compared to other places, and very fast shipping. Usually they send the tracking number the same day it was ordered. I keep checking them hoping for new parts...

I've ordered a shift **** and AEM/Nissin brake pads and they got here super fast. I'm way happy with my order. I expect that most people will be when ordering from them. There might be some exceptions, but all in all they do good business.
My mom ordered me the TenzoR strut tower bar. They wouldnt let her do it online, b/c the shipping adress was different than the billing adress so it took about two and a half weeks for it to finally get here.
BAK: I have a question for you. I have the injen intake also. Do you use the bracket tab that is on the intake to mount a bracket to your motor or not. I do not have a bracket on mine, but am thinking that I should. I have been told that a lot of folks do not use the tab and bracket. I can't tell from your pictures if you are using yours or not. Thanks for the info.
Yes, I use the bracket tab on the intake. It stiffens up the whole assy. Otherwise it shakes like he11. I pulled one of the rubber grommets off the stock box and pushed half of it through the hole in the bracket, then inserted the bolt through the grommet. It's a perfect fit and makes the intake sturdy.
Oh yeah, keep the bolts on the bracket kinda loose until you get everything lined up and the intake itself tightened, then tighten the bracket bolts. It works a heck of alot better that way. I'm getting pretty good at putting it on and taking it off, because everytime I take it to the dealer, I put my stock box back on so they won't say anything about modding the engine.

Thanks, I'm still working on it. I'll get it dropped with new struts with my income tax money. I take it off cause I'm not sure what my dealer will say when it comes to warranty work. Some give ya hassles.
