Anyone have problems with NOPI??

I'm from Atlanta, so naturally when i go to buy parts for my civic i go right down the road to the NOPI dealer. First i ordered the exhaust. The sales dude takes my info and assures me that my hp racing cat-back will be there within 7-10 days. Two weeks go by and they keep giving me the run around about how it had to be special ordered from somewhere in Texas. Anyway to make a long story seem short; it took 4 months for them to get what i ordered. The people there said there was some screw up with the manufacturers or something and that they had no control over it. Fine, i gave them another chance. This time i wanted my cai, the guy took my car and put it in the computer again. 2002 civic EX. the dumb a$$ orders the cai for an SI which is on the complete opposite side of the engine. You would think NOPI would know the difference between the cars they sell parts for. I don't think i'll be spending my hard earned cheese with them any time soon.

Never had a problem with nopi, i ordered my kaminari wing from them and it was here 2 days later. They even gave me a break on shipping. So far all of my experiences with them have been good

[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/IMG]Well Nopi sucking is no new news to anyone in the import scene in Atlanta. Well it is like this, if you live in driving distance to a Nopi, then you should not buy from them. It is as easy as that. They pretty much suck and going there is really no better. This is my 3rd car in the sport compact scene and I have learned that it is easier to go elsewhere. If you try to go to a particular Nopi store, then you really run into problems. You can buy some springs at one store and drive 20 mins to another store and get them $40 cheaper. It is all in who you know, and what mood they are in, in that min. The advise that I could give you for atl is Automod or UAB. Try Importatlanta. Everyone who is anyone in "the scene" is there, and everyone has hookups.

Thanks for the advise. I'll give those places a try next time. I'm stationed in Germany now though, so it's a total pain in the azz to get parts for hondas over here and shipping is a bi+ch too.
