It never seems to end for me
I've already had problems purchasing stuff from a couple different vendors. In the latest scenario I went to CustomMaxima.com to order the clear corners. They have good prices and many people have purchased from them no problem. But they are currently out of stock for the rear corners. So I (not knowing that procarparts also had them for them for a similar price) ordered mine from Cattman and paid $15 more total for both pairs so I could get them as soon as possible. Or so I thought. 
Yesterday my box showed up and I opened it with great excitement. Only the fronts were in the box. So I picked up the packing list to see what was going on only to find that Cattman just sells you CustomMaxima's corners for more money and then has CustomMaxima ship them straight to you. As I mentioned before CustomMaxima is out of stock. So now I am still stuck with no rears having paid more money so that I wouldn't have to wait, and have to still wait. 
I know its not a big deal, but this along with my door sill being damaged and waiting for a new one of those, and everybody having problems with almost every FSTB(me buying the OBX after several people purchased it saying it fits great, then just after I get it everyone is having problems with it). Also the addco RSB having to be modded before you can install your mod. Nothing seems to go right.
Well I take that back, my bulbs from autodynamic came more quickly than expected and not damaged.

Well I could always tell Cattman I want to return them and have them refund my credit card. Since they were sent to me directly from CustomMaxima I would have to return them to CustomMaxima. Instead of sending them back, I could call up CustomMaxima and purchase them from him for his price. I would still have to wait for the rears but at least I wouldn't be overpaying anymore. Too complicated though almost not worth the effort.

Re-It never seems to end for me
What kind of modification had to be made to the Addco RSB in order to make it fit? I received one from Courtesy Nissan that appears to be the same bar. I haven't found any installation instruction through the search function so any help would be nice.
well if you follow the instructions and stay about 4-5 inches front the bend you will get no bang and will have no grinding to do

The mod to the addco is to grind down one of the brackets to prevent a loud bang some people were getting. There is a rather large thread about it.
