I thought of getting Carlinis, but now, not to sure, I'm a real stickler of stripes on cars being straight, or not. Sounds like these would drive me nuts! I may go with wild 1 bars, as I've bought two sets from them, the first was perfect, I bought direct. The sec d, not perfect, but I did t buy direct, and got a good deal on them, so I think, whoever I bought from, sold me bless, and didn't inform me, first. So, the second set are far from perfect, but I do not blame them. I blame me, for looking for the cheap set on eBay, and not asking, before I bought them.
Good luck, on getting your deal resolved.

just because i'm having an issues doesn't mean you will. i love the look of their stuff, but don't feel like trying a 3rd time. lots of other people have great results, so go on those recommendations and not mine.

I understand people who have had good luck with a product and regardless the op is struggling with them. It is good carlini is working with him...that is what a good business does. I hope the op can hold out for a good set cause in the end it will be worth it

Maybe your method of evaluating them is Off? Maybe your "flat surface" is not so flat and level? Do you suffer from OCD?
