If you answered your pm this wouldn't have been made public! Yes I shouldn't have waited that long and for your info it was 10 days. I recieved it on Jan 22 and opened it up on Feb 2. Family visit from Hawaii, overtime, and it being a later project for a crown vic just wasn't top of the list. I never complained of the packaging it was perfect and so was the box... so your mint condition Header Panel was either a lie or the Mail man damaged item and reboxed item (got pictures), Header panel look like it was in car accident! I learned my lesson!
