I think that's close, but I recently (grudgingly) bought some clear headlight corner pieces and I'm pretty sure that they win the "most overpriced part" award, averaging well over $50 each for a small piece of plastic that doesn't really hold up well to long term weather and UV.

I agree with the headlight corners. Absurd pricing. I finally found my replacement from a forum member for $10.

Anything from the dealer. I would like to say it was a Porsche thing, but it seems all dealers over price no matter the manufacturer. I bought a dodge cummins with no keys and the dealer said it would be $3000 for a complete set. Went to the local pick-n-pull and found everything I needed for $40.
