Just curious as to how many people on here have had good experiences with MPS? I've called them two times to order a part that I need for my stang and both times they took my information down and said the part would be shipped out. Here I am 5 days after my last call and my account still has not been charged and I have not received my part. I guess these people don't want my money...

It pisses me off because I have all the other parts I need except for these brackets and it's completely holding me back!!!

Anybody else know where to get the "L" shaped brackets that attach the headlight panel to the radiator support????

I called them once about a rear sway bar and will never call back. It seemed like my call was annoying to them.

looks fairly simple to make, take some sheet metal, fold it, you can get those hand brakes, drill out the holes and go for it, doesnt even really need to be notched.

I haven't heard anything good about MPS.

Fortunately there are a couple SN's in a little known about junkyard around here.

You could easily make one of those.

Or make two and polish them.

With them, it's a hit or a miss... Unless you either go in person, or if you spend a lot of money, they put you last in line. I live about 20 mins from them right now and have never taken the time to drive there because they wont let you in the yard at all!!! Heck Dugen Racing is 10 mins from my house and I have never been there. There are a lot of well known distributors around my area that I choose not to go into due to the fact I would want one of everything and two of the good stuff type deals...

Agreed, I'd probably just make my own out of sheet metal. Sorry if this is a smart-ass question, but whats wrong with the one in the pic?

theres nothing wrong with the one in the pic except for the fact that its not my car. Both of the brackets are missing on mine... looks like i'll just have to make them.

I've called MPS a couple times and they hurried me off the phone both times. Not to mention, their prices are just totally ridiculous and about 90% of anything you need is "attached" to another part and they won't seperate it.

I got an AC compressor from them a while back. Didn't have any problem with the transaction, other than the shipping was a little pricey, but still doable.
