So I got my bumper, that I won last September at WENT, from TAG after 6 months and 2 days. What an ordeal. Once I got it I can see that it was a quick piece together job. I am posting all of my communications with their company and the Hell that it was. You can all clearly see in the pictures the "quality" workmanship on the nearly $1200 bumper. You decide.....

How may we help: Ashley,
I have a 2001 Xterra SE 4X4 with a 2" Body Lift. Here is what I am interested in ordering:
-Bumper in winch mount style
-Satin Black
-Grill Guard (Plate Style like the one pictured)
-Add Overlay to grill guard (Plate Style)
-Shackle Mounts
Inner Lights - Rigid Dually LED (Spot)
Outer Lights - Rigid Dually LED (Flood)
Do I need a wiring harness?
That looks to be all I would want on that bumper. If you are aware of any other additions please feel free to add them or I can be reached at xxx.
Thanks again for a great prize at WENT,

Ashley,
Is there a tracking number for my bumper that shipped on February 18th? It has not arrived and I am concerned.
3/1/15
The tracking # would have been contained in the email you received that indicated it had been shipped on the 18th. It would be listed as the "PRO #" in that email.
3/1/15
This is the response from what was sent. All it says is February 18th.
3/1/15
Yeah, that's not a shipment notification email. Probably sent to you in error.
3/1/15
Do you know when it will ship? It was ordered October 11th 2014
3/1/15
Will check

Is there any update on the front bumper I ordered on October 11 2014? It was supposed to ship February 18th, but then I was told that was incorrect, this is past ridiculous.
3/12/15
Mr. Powers,
Estimated shipping date is Monday 03-16-15

Thank you

Its a 3" body lift. That's what is on the order confirmation.

As I look at the invoice it shows that it is for. 3" body lift. I ordered a 2" body lift. Please inspect the bumper prior to shipping to ensure it is not a typographical error.
Thanks,

Please read the original e-mail below that I had placed with Ashley. She originally placed the order for no body lift, then I corrected her and she changed it to a 2" body lift.This was ordered on October 14th 2014. The Invoice was sent on October 15th as seen below. How can this product take so long to be completed then at the end prior to shipping it is incorrect? How can I go back to the Nissan Off-road community and in good faith recommend your company or services? What corrective actions can be taken to ensure I receive the product that I ordered?

Who did you get a from that didn't fit? I'd send it back. Any sort of reputable bumper manufacturer would have a return policy. I mean assuming they were the ones who made the mistake and not you. If you made the mistake, then the onus would be on you of course.

My Xterra has a 2" body lift. Clearly stated in the beginning order through Ashley. I have all of the emails from 5 months ago.
I under stand all of the reviews of TAG that I have read up on now. I will make sure that Dave through WENT knows about this and we will spread the poor sportsmanship and service throughout the off road community. This response is unacceptable placing blame on me when all of my conversations in emails are clear to you the owner of the company.
Sent from my iPhone
3/15/15
Yes, I saw your copy of the email. You have a 2" body lift. And you notified us of the fact that the initial order was incorrect. And someone failed to make the change on the order, got that too. Wish no one ever made a mistake, but we're all human.
Continuing on to the second paragraph of your email, you then descend into some sort of paranoid delusional fantasy world. I don't even know what to say to that. Poor sportsmanship? Placing blame on you? Emails directly to me as owner of the company? All three are non-existent.
As far as I know, you order hasn't even shipped and yet you are spazzing about something being incorrect when you haven't even received it and also about being stuck with it. Seriously?!? Get a grip on yourself.
3/15/15
So we are clear, I see that there is an error. I do not want to receive the bumper just to wrestle with it and find out it is incorrect. I then do not want to have to send it back for it to be fixed. I simply wish for it to be correct before you pay to ship it to me, then pay to have it shipped back to you and then your company have to rework it and ship it again. Please ensure it is a bumper set up for a 2" body lift and ship it later. I have waited 5 months, I can wait a week more.

Order: 2922
Carrier: R and L Carriers
Pro# 440 718 687 (Please wait overnight for the system to update with this tracking information)
Delivery type: Residence
Thank you for your order!
Notes Regarding Potential Shipping Damage:
If anything is damaged in shipment it must be reported to the driver at time of delivery and recorded on the shipping paperwork the driver will ask you to sign. All shipments are insured, but most carriers will not honor after the fact claims. Do not refuse the shipment as a representative from the carrier will most likely need to inspect the damage. if it does become necessary to return it, the return shipment will be arranged. It is also most helpful if pictures can be taken before the packages are unwrapped.
Notes Regarding Potential Extra Charges:
Your shipment has been sent prepaid per the description on the order. If you request delivery options not on the order (examples: residential instead of commercial, lift gate delivery, appointment, inside delivery), there will be an additional charge as determined by the freight carrier.
