Would you recommend getting parts from MR2 BEN?

I did not deal with them but ask Paul first :)
Ask Paul at TCB or one of our breakers first.
Also GT4 play.
I don't think I've ever bought from mr2ben probably because I find it expensive.
As above - If you want "new" check with Paul@tcb, if you want second hand then check with Rutland or D1ck sloan..
I used MR2 BEN a few times when I had my SW20 , never had any issues. Hope this helps :)
Pretty sure I about brakes from them once. No issues.
I bought a pair of radiator, bottom insulators from him as he was the only vendor with any available at the time. At the upper end on price with everything but couldn't fault the service.
I've bought from MR2Ben and all was good, but as said above, generally expensive. I'd default to
@Paul@TCB first and go from there
I bought my screaming chicken badge from him because at the time he was the only one who had the genuine ones.
No problem at all with him
What is a screaming chicken badge lol? Are you referring to the midship badge

They're two separate things, the midship badge is the semi-generic narrowed, rectangular one available in various colours and on some of the club merch.
The "screaming chicken" dates back to early Toyota and was on the MK1s.
It's more pointy at the bottom, usually red background with a mainly gold representation of a bird with its wings outstretched and beak open.
Like a "screaming chicken" there's loads of Google images of it.👍🏻
I had a look and can see exactly what you mean, brilliant description! lol
I've bought stuff from MR2 Ben, no problems.
Also bought lots of stuff even the rear Subframe. Allways a nice communication and fast shippment. Never got any Problems.
I have bought a few things from him and never had an issue.
I've bought several things from him, mainly obscure bits and pieces I couldn't be bothered finding find elsewhere. No problems at all.
More common parts can usually be found cheaper elsewhere.
As above no issues with the quality of parts or the service but many of the items available for the roadster are cheaper elsewhere.
