Fed Ex man just came by/Problem with WAAG?

The kind Fed Ex man just dropped off my WAAG. It's very exciting.

I was under the impression that it would have holes in it for lights pre-drilled, but it doesn't so I'll have to do it myself...no biggie.

But it doesn't have WAAG molded into the front like the others I've seen, kinda dissapointing...but oh well.

Here are some pics of what I will be installing on Sunday...

What do you mean?

The instructions are for a Ford Ranger and everything appears to be correct except the holes for lights and the WAAG stamped in the front. Which isn't a huge deal, but it would be nice if they were there.

everything I have ever seen by waag had their name on it
I am sure yours is the real deal, maybe they just forgot to tell the factory

I think it's the real deal too, I think they just forgot a few steps.

From what I have been told, the machine that drills the holes for the lights & stamps the WAAG logo is broke. Should they have contacted me about this? Yes. Can anything be done about it? I'm not sure. I will have to see how everyone feels about it first. They are sending me stickers to replace the stamped WAAG logo & I know thats not the real solution but it is a solution. If the logo & drilled holes is that of a major deal to you, send me a PM please & I will try to work out an return program with them. I'm not happy about this at all but I will try to fix whatever problems we have.

I am still planning on mounting it, I can drill holes no big deal. A sticker for the front sounds just fine with me.

$245 for the WAAG (including shipping), $168.98 for the lights (free shipping).

So about $415

Looks good, mine does not have the WAAG stamped on the front but it was from the older buy. It does have a triangle sticker on it that says WAAG though.

I doubt it. I imagine they only have a stamp that say WAAG.

I'm with Robin if they charged more and did not deliver the same product, there is something definitely wrong there.

Maybe they should refund some money. Like 20 bucks or something or send us some WAAG swag!
