That's not cool... 10 months??? I'm in the market for a new hood as well and been checking out Duke but it seems that a lot of people are having both fitment and delivery issues with them.

My diffuser is also from Duke Dynamics, and has almost completely fallen off the fitment is so poor. They have been saying they would replace it since the day I installed it about 6 months ago. I'm in the process of trying to get my money back at this point.. Although I'm not too hopeful.

maybe 1 of 10 had minor fitment issues, but they are willing to replaced it for free.

They alway take care of their customers, I'm sure they will replace and send you the new diffuser. Send them an email or give them a call.

of course the seller has to replace or exchange a "defective" product for FREE!!
but here we are not only taking about the fitment or quality issue. we are talking about the damn long waiting...this is also part of "customer service" ok!!!
Please don't try to cover up the negatives and finding excuses...ADMIT it the fault and learn from the lesson.
thats the way you do business

i know the DD guy over there personally - from my 58cm quad diffuser and now the 55cm quad diffuser. YES - it takes what seems an eternity to receive the product and email communication could be a hell of a lot better, but the fitment is on. I emailed him this thread........ lets see. They make good stuff, but they must improve on customer service.
