Any issues?

Got one with the eBay coupon, it's ok for $230.
I don't like the red. I'm getting the piece made in white. It's easily removable. The red pieces look super cheap, just need a gloss coat to make them less dry looking. Also you have to repaint the grille itself, American authority has bad finishes especially noticable with this and their louvers . |

Anyone else get these? I wonder how they look. Thinking about getting it.

I have to agree about their trash quality. I really, really didn't want to give American Authority any of my money but, I saw an opportunity to go with a slightly unique setup based upon their items.
I ended up getting the grille painted. The grille had very, very poor finish. It had scuffs, random extra "chunks" of plastic left over from the mold, I'm sure. Once the grille was cleaned up properly and painted, it came out pretty nice. I don't have the LED grille but, I figured that I would share my experience with that.

Oh, I agree. I really don’t care for their parts but, a couple of them looked to appeal to me just right.

Is there a way to completely ignore a user. I just dont want to see krops posts anymore. He's just shit talking every thread with garbage posts.
Whoever owns that mustang should get props its pretty badass. I was worried that they were cheap looking. Was hoping maybe that was an older batch.

Tbh, I’m a fan of AA’s products (I own/owned a few of them). But when I first got it and installed on the leds was weak and blinky (not really sure how to describe it). I never really turn the leds on so I wasn’t too worried. But a few weeks ago I turned em on to show a friend and whole side didn’t come on. So there’s that lol
But I bought it a while ago and I refuse to take this bumper off again for anything but an emergency haha

Do not buy them. They run way too hot, enough to melt their housing. I went through 6 sets, I finally made my own.
Im going through a dispute with American Authority right now, and I've given them enough patience and time, so I haven't posted about their garbage quality and customer service. |
