If the parts not right send it back. The more people who have valid complaints and voice them, the better the chance that the vendor will learn that quality does make a difference and they can take steps to correct their parts.
That being said, if they had made a tank that was appropriate for my COE, it probably would have been cheaper to buy one. The POR-15 sealer, marine clean, and metal ready cost me about $100, but I also bought the gallon sized containers. Add in the 6 gallons of muriatic acid it took to clean it properly, several boxes of baking soda to neutralize the acid, plugs for the tank, etc. Then add the time involved to do everything.
Hope that info helps.
