mine from them fit fine i had to work the end caps like mojoe

 

For everyone to be able to handpick parts as big as deck lids and hoods would be pretty impractical with a company like MP, unless maybe you were close enough to pick up your stuff from their stockton location.

eZ, curious about something else...since you had the lid for 2 years, where was it sitting before you tried fitting it on the car? If it was stacked somewhere in the garage, it may have warped from the combination of sitting and heat overtime as well.

 

Sorry but if I was owner of a Mustang parts store, I wouldn't accept returned merchandise after two years either, I mean come friggin' on, lets be realistic here.

 

Let's get real: wherever you get any part, remember that they (the supplier) did not make it; they sold it to you because you wanted it. I've had parts problems with Texas Mustang, Nationa Parts Depot, California Mustang, Mustangs Unlimited, Mustang Parts House- even good old J. C. Whitney. In every instance, the supplier replaced the defective item. I've never had a problem with Mustangs Plus. In every instance, the time lag was with-in the prescribed period.In all cases, the item was replaced. It is obvious that this whole string is based on some one that doesn't understand business. That is, all these suppliers are in business, and that business is to make money.A satisfied customer is the best reference to make money - providing you follow their policy. Get used to it. Read the fine print.

ive never had a problem with mustangs plus...then again the only thing ive ever bought from them were some brake line adapters for my granada swap [&:]

 

How about another photo showing all the rear of the car with the deck lid in place (or as close as posisble). Fiberglass has to be fitted, looks like a belt sander may be in order.

 

sorry ive been gone...but to answer a lot of questions.

the problem with the trunk is that it sticks out to far at the corners and completely bows in toward the key hole. if i put a straight edge against my trunk you can see the the trunk is perfectly straight where as the deck lid is bowed in a horrible c shape. i got this deck lid in dec. of 2005. i contacted them a few months later when i installed the deck lid. the lid was still in the box at that time. if it has been sanded then i recieved a trunk lid that someone else had already returned. I gave MP the benefit of the doubt until i took the car to a body shop and they said "wow, where did you get this deck lid?" I understand that a lot of time has passed since i bought it. but you can see in my email that i asked if there was "anything" that they could do. they did not even offer a discount on a new lid.
So its not the fact that i "waited to years." I contacted within the time period of the fine print or whatever the hell you say and they blew it off. Basically I offered them a recourse before i shop somewhere else.

 

If you told them upfront two years ago, thats crap. They should have exchanged it. I hate it when someone makes excuses for their shortcommings. I wish they would just simply say," Sorry, we screwed up." Oh well live and learn, ive learned that it'snever just one company, Every company everyone listed so far I guarantee has some discrepencies against them. And also the same companys have customers so loyal they would never "shop around". Everyone will get screwed sometimeIt's your luck to be that "guy" that happend to that time".But everyone has there favorites. I say give them a another chance.

Mojoe, Im diggin the new signature. You still have one of the nicest rides ive seen.

Grammer ****, I think yoursentence where you talk about being a grammer **** is a run-on. Just thought that was ironic.
