DPS Motorsport Frustration

[djomlas]

promise low, deliver high should be the way of doing things.
but they seem to be talking up the storm and delivering nothing but breeze

o well, if you guys dont mind the wait then it doesnt matter, but i sure wouldnt like that

OHH GODDD!!!

Well i always defend dps, and have had similar issues. the only reason that i continue to buy from dps, is becuase of pricing, and finish. so really they can take a REASONABLE time to deliver, i don't mind. i have had the biggest issues with them, and still continue to buy.

i think the real problem is the body shop that does the painting for them. this is just from my experience and from what i've gathered. seems like the body shop is another company or at another location. some kind of issue here.....that takes longer to get the parts painted.

oh well i'll still continue to buy from dps, they saved me exactly $1500 on the gt3 bumper. side skirts i bought last year i saved over $500. nuff said!

i dunno, at those prices you are already being ripped off, so getting some $ off is still a good ripoff, but you feel better about getting ripped off IMHO.
damn i used that word 3 times in one sentence

so djomlas,

how much can you get me a factory gt3 bumper for the boxster, painted and shipped across the country?

how much can you get me factory side skirts for the boxster, painted and shipped across the country?

just answer the 2 questions, no extra extra bulls+++.

[djomlas]

well...if i got a factory brand new 987 S bumper for $50, i bet i can get a gt3 bumper or skirts for much cheaper than they can rip me off for, and i wont even have to pay for shipping. those prices look the same to me as the dealer prices, which are overpriced for what they are anyways.
as for paint...well any paint place can paint a bumper

not trying to start anything but i just source my parts differently and not accross the country and definitely not waiting few months for a part to get to my house. thats all

in my opinion, if you say soemthign and not do it, and then do it again, and for gods sake do this the whole month, then i dunno.

i always believed that you shoould promise low and give people reasonable time to expect their product delivered, and then REALLY try to ge them before that deadline to get the greatest satisfaction, but cmon tell someone tomorrow for a whole month would just piss me off for people lying in my face on daily bases, no matter how nicely they say it to me, couse all they are doing is lying to you in a nice way

Where in the world did you get a factory bumper for $50?? I can tell you this, a decent (yet cheap) paint job on the skirts and bumper alone would be around $500. I got my skirts and bumper painted and shipped (across the country) for a little over $2000. If you can do better, I'd love to know where....I'll start shopping there for my parts from now on. These parts retail for $3000 unpainted and not including shipping.

i had a SS hood, 2 fenders, and front grille painted red on my old car for 250. perfect match, even for the very unusual shade of red that i had. i dont know if you guys just go to the 1st place u see and pay whatever they tell you or what?
heres a quick pic of the old car, damn i miss that beast
