Stay away from this low life scammer Johnny Perez of Shadowcraft USA and Chicago Composites, i sent him some small interior parts and paid him in September and i have not gotten anything but BS excuses from him. He blocked me on all social media and does not reply to any email. A simple search of his name would have revealed his prior exploits so that is my fault but i had been following him for a couple years and didn't suspect a thing. The first red flag was when he asked me to use the Cash app to pay since it doesn't protect the buyer like PayPal does, wasn't to much money in the grand scheme of things so i went ahead with it. Lesson learned the hard way and hopefully i can save some people the frustration of dealing with this POS.

My god, he's been doing this for a long time.
Someone needs to file a complaint with the local DA's office to shut him down.

according to few other websites members got scammed by this seller.
i got scammed as well and my CC still fighting for charge back. seller provided a dummy tracking # to my CC company which making it harder to get my money back.
if you google his website, a lot of stories you can read.
Beware of https://www.instagram.com/carbonguards/ and The Original Carbon Guards they are a scam. It's been over 100 days since placing my order and zero contact now. They made a ton of promises right up front and kept saying my parts would be shipped within 2 days. Since then, they have blocked me from their socials and wont respond to anything. I'm happy to post proof of payment and the many many messages of empty promises

I just filed a consumer fraud complaint to the state's attorney for Illinois, seem like he started scamming people from 2018 until now.
Here’s the link in case you got scammed by him as well.
