I found a Toyota online parts supplier with really good prices on parts. I need several plastic bumper brackets. Aggregate, they would fit into half a traditional shoebox.

$89 for shipping.

I know it's one of those sucker you in with super low prices web sites. Surely theres are outfits with more reasonable prices/shipping. It's for an FR-S, hence the Toyota or Subaru parts house, as the parts needed are the same for an FR-S or BRZ.

I'm a big fan of Conicelli, I've been buying from them for 20+ (yikes!) years.  I'm on the east coast, so their shipping is typically reasonable and fast.  I've had issues shipping larger size items from Honda dealerships (think roof rails and crossbars), but what you're describing shouldn't be an issue.

I just ordered some parts through BAM in Ohio for my Tundra, and prices/shipping were competitive and fast shipping. No complaints. I've also purchased from Conicelli with no issues.

I usually use Toyotapartdeal or Subarupartsdeal, the name sounds questionable but I have placed a lot of orders with no issues.

Check your local dealership, you might find that they're the cheapest option, especially for big parts. They have trucks shuttling them around on the regular after all.

Also I've found that Toyota parts tend to be cheaper than their Subaru equivalents for some reason.

Funny thing is, a few years ago, I need a rear bumper cover and the Subie cover was almostc$60 less. But yes, I'm definitely checking everyone.

Try these guys.

Full disclosure: I used to work there and still try to send business their way when I can. I work nearby and don't mind popping in if the situation warrants a visit.

No worries. Might not need a PM anyway - link to their website is in my post above. If you need help, let me know, and I can try sending you a note in case that works better than the other way around. 

You'll need to log in to post.
