Default completely fed up!

okay, if someone needs to move this, they can..i just now a lot of people frequent this section.

i want your guys/gals opinions on what i should do. i posted once before about my gf buying me an aftermarket, painted ss spoiler for xmas. okay, so i just got the THIRD spoiler yesterday, from a new manufacturer (the other two were junk as well) and i couldnt believe what i saw. the paint was already pitting, there was overspray above the pillars, and a good 3'' by 1/2'' CHUNK of material COMPLETELY missing on one of the corners....

should i just get my money back or try once more....

thanks

Best thing to do is this... Unpainted is the way to go... Then Any blemishes or sanding will be done by the bodyshop
