Someone had to be the first (-:
They look nice, and it's a bit of a relief to see a different scheme...not that the stock one isn't cool and unique in it's own right...just that it's been around awhile now (-: (-: Dave |

So, are these canopies you have supplied to be painted, or are Fusuno now producing them.
I emailed Fusuno a month or so ago, and they hinted that they had plans to produce some, but no timescale. |

I would think carefully about ordering from Fusuno.
I placed my order 17/04/2012, $88+$35 for UPS shipping as per their quotation. I their conformation of order email it stated that my order would take 5-7 days to finish. As of the 21/05/2012 my item still has not been shipped On the 21/05/2012 I contacted Helen via the online help, I wanted to add some other items to be shipped with my order which is due to be dispatched this week. I was then told there was a problem with my xxtreme canopy order and I had to pay another $50 for UPS shipping which I had already paid $35 for as per their quotation. I then sent an email to Fusuno outlining the situation and that this is their error and it should be them who picks up the additional shipping charge. And if they can’t provide what has already been agreed then they should give me a full refund. 22/05/2012 I received a email back from Fusuno explaining that they have charged me incorrectly for the canopy, they charged me $88 and it should have been $120, but the will honour the $88 price which I had paid 17/04/2012. The stated that the UPS shipping which I had paid $35 for as per the agreed price is now $130 and I had to pay another $95, so in the space of 24hrs They’ve gone from asking for an extra $50 to $95. There’s no way I’m paying another $95 for something which I have paid for and they’re refusing to ship it via the already agreed method, At the moment it looks like they not shipping it to me nor are they giving me a refund. Be warned if you get a price from them even if you’ve already paid they may come back to you looking for a lot more $$$ |

Hows the join at the back and quality of the material and finish compared to the stock?
I got a shipping quote from Fusuno, and the cost for 1 canopy to UK is $120 just for the shipping which seems a bit steep. Requested confirmation from them, but if that is the price, they would work out at £150 each plus any VAT or import duty I might get stung for. Thats the same as the stock canopy, so want to make sure they quality is as good, and they dont weigh a ton more |

They actually weigh less. The material they use is not as rigid and the paint is great. I did the Mikado mod to them to accept the pins for mounting as they do not come with magnets at all. You have to have the pins if you want to use them...........Ron
