• Heavy cloudiness under the clear coat (which is only visible under the sun. Seibon apologizes for not being able to QC every product under natural sun light)

Installation

All products require professional installation. Buyer understands that some products may require modifications for correct fitment. Minor adjustments may be necessary as part of the normal installation process. All carbon fiber products will not sustain heavy force or weight, for they could be cracked by such force or weight. Seibon has made an effort to produce all its aftermarket products to fit the original factory vehicles as closely as possible. However, some occasional prepping may be necessary for an ideal fit. The buyer needs to perform these steps to his/her satisfaction before installation. If the buyer wishes to paint the products, he or she must pre-fit the parts to the vehicle before painting to ensure proper fit. There are absolutely no returns on painted products.

 

Hood Pins

All hoods require hood pins for safety reasons. Seibon will not be liable for any damages to the product and the vehicle caused by not properly using hood pins.

 

Heat Shields

Heat shields are required for all carbon fiber hoods, for the same reason that the stock factory hoods use heat shields. Carbon fiber hoods require similar protection, and heat shields can help avoid pre-mature aging and discoloration of the product.

 

Defective Products

All products require professional installation. Minor adjustments might be necessary. These are normal body work and installation steps. Therefore it is NOT considered to be defective. In addition, most carbon fiber products are hand-crafted, and no two items will be identical. Small imperfections such as wavy weaves, small bubbles, and clear coat blemishes are inevitable. Pictures are required to demonstrate true defects on products prior to return. See below for information on our return policy.

 

Returns

Special orders cannot be returned. If the buyer decides to return any part of the ordered item, he or she must contact the distributor who in turn can contact Seibon and receive a return authorization within three (3) days of receiving the parts. A Return Authorization number (RA number) will be issued to the buyer by Seibon, and it must be written on the outside of the packages being returned. Returned products must be received back at Seibon within 10 days of issuing the return authorization. There is no return for any parts that have been used, modified, painted, or installed.

All products which are approved for return are for store credit only. All products returned must be in the original shipping carton in the same condition as it was originally delivered or shipped. Only the original buyer may request for a return of products. Defective items may be exchanged for the same item only.

If Seibon does not accept the goods as being defective and/or returnable, buyer must accept any incurred costs. All returns, regardless of the underlying reason, must be sent shipping prepaid. Any returns sent shipping collect or without RA number will be refused and returned to the buyer at his or her own expense. Shipping costs to and from the purchaser are not refundable. Buyer is advised to insure the returned goods for their full value for his or her own protection. Otherwise, neither Seibon nor the shipping company would be responsible for any damage or loss in shipment. Refund will not be issued on returned products that are damaged on the way back to Seibon.

Shipping and Backorders

Seibon tries to maintain a good stocking level in order to prevent backorders. However, in case a backorder is necessary, Seibon will ship the order as soon as the parts become available. Backorders must be canceled within five days from when the order is placed, or before when the parts become available, whichever is sooner. Otherwise, the parts will automatically be shipped to the buyer. Seibon tries to ship regular, in-stock items the following business day. Please allow 5-10 working days for in-stock items to arrive. All shipping dates are approximate. Buyer is fully responsible for all shipping charges, unless otherwise negotiated with Seibon.
