SamGrant951 OFFLINE Junior Racer Posts: 65	Cross post from 944 board/rennlist. Bought a spare set of 88 pistons and they arrived banged up. Seller offered to refund if they were not useable - thoughts?

If the skirts are clean I would say go for it. SamGrant951 wrote: Cross post from 944 board/rennlist. Bought a spare set of 88 pistons and they arrived banged up.
