I'm working directly with the owner now to resolve your situation. We are sorry if you feel we are taking the "easy" way out. We want to make this right for you. Trust me, it is not worth the $150 dollars to lose a customer. The whole reason we don't freely send out replacement sets is because we've had issues in the past with not getting back the original part.
In regards to any one with rusted screws, please PM us and let us know if you were affected. We are replacing all black oxide screws with zinc plated ones to ensure that nothing like this ever happens again.
The fading issue has been addressed since the first batch. The person who used to do our anodizing didn't use the proper type of sealant, resulting in the fading. We have switched the person who does our anodizing since this.
