Returns Policy FAQ

WHAT can be returned?

If you change your mind or you have found the purchase is not suitable for your application, you may contact us to discuss a return within 30 days of purchase. We do however charge a restocking fee of 20% unless otherwise agreed upon. Shipping costs are non-refundable.

Items that have been fitted to your vehicle cannot be returned for a refund unless defective. Using items in a manner not intended will also not be able to be returned for a refund.

If the item is damaged or requires warranty within the manufacturers warranty period then please call us on (03) 9720 8783. Under Australian Consumer Law (ACL) you are covered against product defects unless so noted in the sale. This means that at or around the time that goods are supplied, that if the goods (or part of them) are defective, the we will work with you to either

  • repair or replace goods (or part of them)
  • resupply or fix a problem with services (or part of them)
  • provide compensation to the consumer.

A warranty against defects is usually limited by time & we will try & help find a solution for any defect found but in some cases we will have to communicate with the manufacturer or supplier. This may take some time & we appreciate patience whilst we resolve any issue.

CLEARANCE ITEMS - We do have listed a varied collection of clearance items on our website in our CLEARANCE category. These may be shop soiled, discontinued, missing a part etc. These items are not eligible for return under our COM policy. Please check all photos & description carefully as a refund wont be given unless it is a warranty item.
