Not sure if I believe it but it would be a nice surprise.
Wow that would be crazy quick!

My problems must be due to UK customs declaration!
Says they have arrived at the Phoenix distribution center this morning so hoping they can make their way on the truck today.

Brexit issues perhaps?

Son of a bitch. I missed the mailman. Guess it will be a little while before I can get the spoiler and diffuser put on. I apparently can't pick them up at the local office until after the 18th.

Unable to locate specifics of whether will add 2 or 5HP. Will wait till someone tests these out and reports back.

WTH? Maybe just cancel the order with that seller and try a new one?

Both my spoiler and diffuser are still sitting at the local post office as I couldn't get there before noon yesterday. Hopefully I can get there after work before they close tomorrow, although I probably won't even get a chance to install either one until next weekend.

The seller doesn't seem to know what's going on so I have opened a dispute to get a refund.

So pissed this afternoon. I took off work a little early, picked up the kids, and fought traffic to get to the post office. I walk in at 4:31:15pm and the guy just looks at me and said that they were closed. Wasn't helpful in the least bit, had no care that I had two little kids with me, and all he could say was they were closed. I even told told him the package slip on my door says their hours were until 4:50pm, again he didn't care.

Wow that's terrible. There really has never been an enjoyable experience going into a USPS location; still very much antiquated.

Ah yes, the advanced logistics of the USPS infrastructure and workforce. 1935 called, they want their business model back.
