Trust me, I freaked out before. Im beyond pissed and Im giving them one more chance to fix it (not saying it wasn't fixed at LSR shop) and get it back to me with no problems like this or i will be getting a partial refund soo i can send it to a local shop to fix the bends and get it re-powdered.
I love the color and the powder is amazing, except for that little spot near the bent piece.

3mon later and 2 bent frames. i dont even know what to say. root of the problem is lsr doesnt package it correct. needs to be in some type of reinforced crate. wood, metal or other wise. was thinking of doing a lsr myself but i couldnt handle going through this same bs

If lsr will be giving you a partial refund to take it to a local powder coater i would do that for sure! Whoever is doing the PC for lsr is doing a really crappy job! Properly applied PC should not flake off. I've sprayed test pieces of metal in the past where I was able to bend the metal complete back on itself and it did not chip,crack, or flake. Its all in the prep work. I've seen it before. Powder looks good but once it gets dinged it will endlessly flake off. Talk to your PC guy and ask what he does for prep work before you give him your frame to do. Post back here and lll let you know of he's doing the proper prep work to make the PC last like it should

Honestly now i dont know who to blame. I think its a combination of both LSR and UPS. I mean like, LSR doesnt have the best packing skills and UPS throws the boxes around soo its both of their faults i would say. The box was damaged to some degree and the frame could of used more foam to protect it. I just want my frame not damaged so i can start the build...

If my frame comes back one more time damaged i will be getting a partial refund to get it fixed and powdered by my local shop. I hope it doesnt come to that though. I need all the luck i can get at this point...

hoping the best for you.....but damn!!! a little common sense from the guys that packed it. I send a $5 part and it is packed like it can drop from a plane with no damage. SMH

Common sense isn't that common period.... Hopefully they make it right on the third try.
