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+++.

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

Where did you have them painted? The cost of the paint alone is very expensive. If you can get a special deal, more power to you. But I still do not think you can find us a new OEM GT3 bumper and skirts painted for less than $2000. That is your challenge

[djomlas]

just some shop in the area.
i came there w the car, asked how much, they told me some price, i said some other shop was offering me this much, and they said sure well do it for that much, and they painted it. car was in shop for day and half about.
came out washed and cleaned and perfectly matched red.

and as for the GT3 bumper, to be honest im not looking for one nor do want to accept the challenge heheh

but if thats a good deal then its a good deal, and if you got the $ everythigns a good deal

The parts that I ordered are only of about $50 savings. If they told me upfront that shipping would take a couple of weeks that would be fine, but I too was told a few days. When I actually sent a few emails and a phone call to politely complain, they politely told me the delay was due to the holidays. But its near the end of Feb now. While I am probably making an issue out of nothing, it just amazes me that people run a business in this manner. They must make a whole lot of money to put off customer service. My business certainly would not last in this manner.
