Car: 1991 Z28 convertible built 3/1/1990 Engine: Cammed 6.0L LSX Transmission: T56 Axle/Gears: custom Ford 8.8", 4.10 gears | Makoto Auto Trends is known for the crappy customer service. I've dealt with them and they took almost a month to ship out my clear side markers after they recieved my money order. I called quite a few times, and emailed even more. Only twice did they answer my phone calls and they never answered my emails. Their service sucks. Period.

UNCLE TOM | Damn it....I just ordered some stuff from them this weekend. I wish i saw this posting. I was wondering why the UPS tracking numbers didnt work yet. Its prob. because they havent been notified for pick up. I cant believe they prob. wont be here for a month.   | |
