Upon receiving the hood, it was missing the base of the shaker.\u00a0 After contacting Suncoast, she was berated and lied to about resending the parts.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t recommend this company to anybody. They may have nice products but their customer service is completely lacking! I just had the displeasure of talking to the most hateful lady I\u2019ve ever spoken to who supposedly owns the company. All because I ordered a shaker hood from there and they didn\u2019t send any brackets with it. They were supposed to be overnighted to me yesterday and they were not. I\u2019ve called them all day today and left a message. I also know that Shawn from Speedlogix called them as well. They never called back but they did finally answer the phone. Apparently this whole situation is my fault because I should\u2019ve checked the box and known that the brackets were in there that isn\u2019t their responsibility ya know as the company that shipped the item and took my money\u2026. She was loud, hateful, told me to shut up, and hung up on me.<\/p>\n<p>If anyone has a damaged Suncoast Shaker or if you come across the Suncoast base (that mounts the shaker to the engine) please contact <a href=\"http:\/\/www.challengertalk.com\/forums\/members\/25760.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">princesspaola21<\/a> over at CT.<\/p>\n<p>She was also told that they are now going out of business, yet they don\u2019t mention that part on their site, to new customers.\u00a0 I would recommend not purchasing anything from them nor would I recommend them to anyone looking for a Shaker hood setup for their car.<\/p>\n<p>We have plenty of members who have and would highly recommend <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cervinis.com\/dodge-challenger-08-12-challenger.html\" target=\"_blank\">Cervinis<\/a> Shaker hoods.\u00a0 I went with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoformgroup.com\/autoformgroup\/index.php?page=shop.product_details&amp;flypage=shop.flypage&amp;product_id=157&amp;category_id=78&amp;manufacturer_id=0&amp;option=com_virtuemart&amp;Itemid=26&amp;vmcchk=1\" target=\"_blank\">AFR<\/a> and would recommend them.\u00a0 I\u2019ve installed both and would highly recommend either the Cervinis or AFR. Both offer the highest quality and have great customer service. Stay far away from Suncoast based on this horror story.<\/p>\n<p>We wish Princesspaola21 the best of luck in getting what she paid for and the hood installed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have been keeping an eye on this thread over at the Challenger talk forums about a member who purchased a Shaker hood from Suncoast.
