Default another bestop piece of crap!!!!!

Just got the Bestop trail cover for the 2 door JK. It was so tight I had to pull and pull to get the tabs hooked. The area where the straps are located tore. Bestop is getting worse and worse, this thing is junk. Taking it back tomorrow.

I have the one for the 4 door. It's great, and a good fit. Quick to put on, and take off. The "tote bag" is a joke.... but overall I think it is a good product.

I'll try to take some pics late tonight, and post them. No promises, my short term memory is not what it used to be.

Mine tore where the straps that go under the door are sewn on. You must have a totally different one than the one I had. The one I had was junk. I took it back to 4 Wheel Parts, dont like them either. I gave them $60.00 cash to order the cover and when it came in I charged the rest on credit card. They did not want to give me $60.00 back. They said they had to mail it to me or put it on my credit card. I had to get mad and loud, which a person should not have to do, and they gave me my cash back. Wont be going back to them. Tired of dealing with incompatent people.

I looked at where the stitching is on mine, and they are really sewed on there. I can not imagine what would have made yours so tight. I mean I have all kinds of strap left when I have mine on. Do you have steps or something that you have to wrap around? Something that is taking up all the slack? I must have like 3 or 4 inches of strap left on each of the side buckles, and 10 or so for the back ones. LOL maybe I have mine on backwards or something!

*edited for grammer and spelling*

Just got off the phone with bestop and they said mine was probably not sewn correctly and they will make a note of it(helps me alot). Bestop customer relations sucks.

When I take the pics tonight, I'll try and get some close-ups of the straps, maybe you will be able to see if there was a difference or not. That sucks man. I am sure someone will make a competing product sooner or later.
