I just got my O/R X-pipe from Pypes through Late Model Restoration Supply, (50resto.com) and the god damn thing is alluminized, not 409 stainless that it is supposed to be. AND IT CAME WITH NO BOLTS!!!!!!

what is wrong with this company, Im gonna call them tomarrow to find out what the deal is.

Anyone else have a simmilar issue with this company???

No complaints about 50resto. Everything I've ordered from them was exactly what I wanted. Pypes though...cant say anything about their products.

I've heard nothing bad about 50resto up until now, but sounds like they simply screwed up. I always sort of guessed Pypes to be a "you get what you pair for" type midpipe, considering its cost.

I went to the englishtown swap meet last year, pypes had a spot with a large display area. The whole material line was on display, aluminized, 409, 304, brushed, polished. They make a quality product, it has to be an ordering or advertising problem, Pypes is quality from what I have seen.

i just talked to Pypes today and they said that it was their fault that I got sent an old X-pipe before they changed to stainless. they also said that they would do nothing for me because I had put it on my car.

the shi**y thing is, it looks like it got sent to someone else, they realized that it wasnt stainless too, and sent it back without the hardware. Then, after Pypes got it back, they tried to pawn it off to me trying to get rid of it.

Im gonna talk to them again tomarrow, and ask them if they know what "false advertisement" is.

This is B.S. how do companies get away with this??????? do monkeys work for them?????

Why did you even put it on the car if it wasn't the correct one?

Do Pypes have to be welded together? If not then why didn't you just lie and say you hadn't installed it...

no, you dont have to weld it. and I will tell them I didn't install it when I talk to another moron that works there tomarow. I had a ZX2 before that I put a lot of money in, (Laugh all you want, i'll post pics if you want) and never had issues with companies. Then, after I buy a Mustang, every time I buy something, there is a problem.

SSBC-sent me six wrong rotors, including corvette ones, before I got the right ones

Pypes-see above

Eibach sportlines from 50 Resto- destroyed in the mail, UPS put them in a hagared box that was falling appart, 1/8 of the powdercoating was worn off cuz they had two pieces of brown paper "packing." Springs were about to fall out of the gaping holes in the box

New Headlights from Mustangs Unlimited-fell apart after one week of them being on the car. New ones will be here begining of May, talked to them a month ago to resolve it. (not getting the same ones)

I Just am about to give up on modding this car, cuz its causing me so many headaches. wish i had a penny for every minute i spent on the phone with these companies

You're unlucky. All I know bad about 50resto is the prices. They can pretty much be beat anywhere else if you live in TX.

Try PartShopper, StangSuspension, or AmericanMuscle. DOT COM

im not complaining about 50resto, it's pypes that im having issues with dirrectly. 50resto is kick ass and already hooked me up for Pypes' and UPS's f**k ups.

They are pretty much one of the only places that I'll do buisness cause their customer service is out of this world.
