Refund Policy
Scope of Policy:
All transactions made via the EM Performance website (modifiedtesla.com) or directly invoiced fall under this policy, unless specific product terms state otherwise.
General Returns:
- Customers may cancel orders and potentially receive a refund (minus a 5% transaction fee) if the cancellation is made within three business days of placing the order. This refund does not include any shipping costs paid by the customer, even if they are integrated into the product’s price.
- Given our swift order processing, we typically commence production within two business days. We advise contacting us with concerns before order finalization.
- Once a product is dispatched, standard refunds aren’t permitted. In exceptional cases where a refund is considered, the customer must return the product in its received condition. Only the product’s cost (excluding any shipping fees) will be refunded. We won’t cover additional return costs like shipping fees.
Bespoke Body Kit Orders:
- Our robot kits are custom-made. If production begins, the standard refund is 50% due to the involved customization.
- If the kit has been acquired with special pricing or sponsorship, the refund amount may differ.
- Deposits for custom orders are non-refundable if canceled post-production or post-deposit.
Product Features & Installation:
- Products demand professional installation. DIY attempts might lead to undesirable results.
- FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymer) parts can show resin traits, which aren’t product defects. A professional body shop can easily address these traits. Refunds won’t be processed based on these inherent characteristics.
Installation Costs and Product Characteristics:
Improper or DIY installations can compromise the integrity, functionality, and appearance of our products. Any damages or issues arising from non-professional installations are not covered by our policy.
OnAir Products:
- For cancellations, notify us within three business days. After dispatch, refunds are possible only upon product return to our warehouse. Return shipping fees are borne by the customer.
Product Damage:
- If you observe any damages upon delivery, it’s crucial to report them to the driver immediately and take photographs as evidence. Our kits are insured, but for the insurance process to proceed smoothly, we require this evidence.
- Some components, such as FRP parts, might be repairable by professional body shops. We may offer partial refunds for these repairs.
- We understand the inconvenience that damages can cause and pledge to do our utmost to support you throughout any necessary remediation or insurance process.
Change of Mind & Returns:
- Post-delivery, if the product meets the agreed-upon conditions, we don’t entertain returns or refunds based on a change of mind.
Order Verification:
- We pride ourselves on quality assurance and conduct thorough checks on each kit part before dispatch. For added transparency, we photograph each part, ensuring we have a documented record of the product’s state before shipment.
Payments via PayPal:
- For customers choosing PayPal, consider our rigorous verification and dispatch process. We urge you to use the platform responsibly. Misusing PayPal’s protection policies or making false claims can result in legal consequences.
We deeply value the trust and relationship we have with our customers. While we provide multiple payment options for your convenience, we ask customers to use payment methods responsibly and with understanding. Please familiarize yourself with the terms of your chosen payment platform.
Post-Dispatch and Customs Handling:
Once a kit is dispatched from our facility, our control over its movement is limited to tracking its whereabouts. During this transit phase, we cannot recall or reroute the product back to us. International deliveries, in particular, might face extended delays due to customs processing. We kindly ask for your patience as your kit navigates through these logistical steps. While we understand the eagerness to receive your order, these external processes can sometimes take longer than anticipated.
Regarding Chargebacks: We endeavor to resolve any customer concerns directly and amicably. If there’s an issue with your order, please reach out to our customer service first. Initiating a chargeback or dispute without first attempting resolution with us is considered a breach of agreement. We maintain detailed records of all transactions and communications, which will be used to contest unjustified chargebacks.
Shipping and Handling:
- All shipping costs, whether integrated into the product price or itemized separately, are non-refundable.
- Customers are responsible for any return shipping charges, even in cases where a refund is issued.
- International customers are responsible for all local customs and port charges.
Cancellation Fees:
- In-stock Items: 20% restocking fee, 5% non-refundable transaction fee.
- Made to Order Items (Started Manufacturing): 20% restocking fee, 5% non-refundable transaction fee.
- Made to Order Items (Not Started): 5% non-refundable transaction fee.

We’ll work diligently to address your concerns, aiming for a resolution that upholds both our policy and your satisfaction.
