Waited 3 Months For This......Terrible

My long awaited Oracle Concept Mirrors arrived after 3 months. I opened them up and was just speechless. How do u let this leave ur facility?! Such a shame. Never had an issue with this company, but 3 month wait time and $650 later come on you got to be joking right?

Paint looks to be done by a 3 year old, glass has a black etching in it, etc.

Pics speak for itself. I bought through a vendor here and are handling this at the moment hopefully know tomorrow what can be done. Is their a way to just paint these myself with it being ghosted?

The inner part (behind the mirror) should either be painted matte black, or completely white, not just pick up the overspray from exterior painting. Edges and corners can be tricky to paint, (paint tends to flow away from the edge), but even I could do a better job with a rattle can.

Im waiting on the vendor here to see what they are going to do and their top notch. Would really like Justin or Jonathan to chime in and give their 2 cents. I still can't believe this was shipped out.

You could wet sand it to remove a super thin layer and respray it and then clear it, it will probably cost you a total of 20-30 bucks but you can paint any color you want
