I towed my car to u guys because my rear axle would have flown off the car if I drove it to ur shop. We unloaded the car and u showed me exactly what needed to be done along with other weak points of the foxbody that flex and crack. My upper torque boxes were tearing out the spot welds so u recommended having a whole floor board from rear seats to spare tire compartment, then making new upper torque boxes followed by reinforcing the lower torque boxes. You also recommended doing subframe connectors done. I approved the job and they worked on my car for the next 3 weeks. They sent pictures of the work up my phone every step of the way. They were married to my car! These guys know structure so well, my mustang has been solid ever since. These guys are honest too. Not to mention I paid about a 3rd of what I really should have.
U guys are great for the Ford community. Jon post some pics of the work u did on my car!

My experience with FOD was agreat. Quality of work was top notch. I never leave my car with anyone but these guys took good care of it. Built my 10pnt cage. Through sub frame connectors. Looked thoroughly through out my whole car to see if anything was coming apart. Notified me on every little thing before proceeding any type of fab work. They appreciated any idea I had to help with fab work. I am very happy with the work. They are a welcoming shop. I will be doing further business with FOD. I highly recomend their services to anyone. I care less of what people in this site say about FOD. They are great and do great work. TEAM F.O.D. FTW

Yea, why not?? Since all the haters like you keep chiming in, I'd like to see r hear of someone who actually had work done by FOD and is unhappy. This is basically a way to prove to people like yourself that your an idiot for talking down on a shop thats full of happy and satisfied customers.
I myself an skeptical of leaving my car at shops for long periods of time. When I met Jon and mitch the first time their welcoming attitudes made me feel comfortable leaving my car there. As others have said, they constantly kept in contact with me during the process and sent me pictures and updates everyday. Their friendliness and high quality work made me want to work with them further and allows me to take pride in being part of the FOD team. Their no bullshit attitudes are how shops need to do business nowadays! Yes, their prices are low, but this definitely doesn't mean that their workmanship is!
Team FOD FTW!

If you and your friends want to advertise, do it in the correct (Vendors) forum. Regardless of how good or poor the work is - which I'm not in a position to speak on - there's no reason to keep hyping your own business here.
I'm not sure if this is 'hating' or just being tired of seeing the same old approach to advertising in the General Talk forum.

maybe he wanted positive and negative feedback so he could adjust accordingly.. ex man wish u guys were open an later so i can get there after work, maybe a lot of people are saying that and so they adjust their hours of the shop a little..<--- for all u retards this was just an example, i never been there and dont know their hours.. maybe he wasnt advertising but just trying to improve.

You've convinced me and 2 of my other buddies to bring their mustangs to you once the motors are all in... Sounds like you run a good shop... [ June 10, 2012, 12:05 PM: Message edited by: cali95gt ]

F.O.D got my full length sub frames done all in the same day. Now that's what you literally call "fabrication on demand". Real cool guys and I couldn't be anymore happier with the quality of the work that has been done.

my experience...well when i got my mustang it wasnt running the way i wanted it too.there was alot of creeking and the car was even tilted to one side.i went to alot of shops and even maier racing and they all said to move on to another mustang or said it would be over $1k to fix.when i went to the shop i asked them if they could fix the problem (torque boxes) and they gave me a full overview of what they were going to do...i left my car there (i hate leaving my car anywhere)and they gave me updates and pictures of what they were doing...once i got my car back it felt like it cam right out of the factory!there were no sounds comming from the rear end anymore and i also got full length subframe connectors installed and a rear strut bar welded in! heres some pictures of the car
