I know Maier (not Mike Maier Inc) makes mustang parts in fiberglass and C/F. I think the quality is good but would never buy from them because of the way business is conducted. Maybe it's changed since my last dealing but I'm a "one and done" kind of customer. Unlike others, it doesn't take much to not get my return business.

Quality yes and nicer, price point no because of where the products are made. Anvil specializes in the older stuff where many other companies won't because of the low production runs. The problem with long lead times to get parts produced is trying to predict the need of your market. If you fall short you run into what is going on here, where as if you order to much of the wrong part you end up with lots of capital tied up in parts that don't sell well. Since Anvil makes my notch spoilers and valance I understand what is going on with the lead times, but I have no idea what is going on internally at Anvil. I am waiting for parts to fill orders like everyone else.

There's one of two things going on either they are WAY swamped with work OR they have too much pride to admit that they're STILL having the exact same issues they were yrs ago . they're probably trying to save face and don't want to make the company look bad , yet here we are again and they STILL look bad again i very specifically told Manal id be posting this and i guess because im not the Brett from ride tech, Kyle from dse, or Mark Steilow i don't matter and non of us other little people matter , its funny how sometimes certain shops or people seem to get the parts they order right quick ....i ordered a hood 4.5 months ago i asked IF you aren't going to have it by x date please call or email me so i can be updated and kept in the loop well i've gotten nothing. i still would have kept my order with them and certainly wouldn't be upset . i'm upset because they cant even tell me anything and i don't believe it my job to go asking at least as of yet , going to see how long this takes maybe a couple more months ? last time i checked money is worth the same in my pocket or yours the only difference is how much we all have to play with . right now on a scale of 1-10 id give them a 5 and that is that high because 4.5 of that is the quality of the product , ill regrade them when this is all over
