Default repo parts

ive come to the conclusion that any reproduction parts that come from tiawan just straight up suck. The next mustang i restore im going to salvage everything i possibly can because i think it would be easier than trying to get some of this stuff to work

Ignoring the cowl, most problems are from operator error, not engineer's...

ygwypf = you get what you pay for. This happerns with all classics crap after market sheet metal, at the end of the day the only way to stop it is to not buy them then that may force the importers to get better press tools made
