Chris is right on target about prices. The dollar has tanked against most currencies, particularly this year. Lots of reasons why, but I don't suggest a political discussion here. But lots of our goodies are pricier now, including those Recaros.
As for fasteners, isn't there a grading standard for degree of hardness/integrity, with a grade 8 the strongest? Shouldn't be hard to determine what products meet that standard, or claim to. Bill W. |

Yes, but just make sure you know what you're getting from Euro Web Parts. They had a short shift kit for $107. I called to ask if it was Porsche factory or Weltmeister. They assured me it was Porsche, which is a steal at $107. Guess what showed up - Weltmeister, which is worth about $37 less than what I paid.

Take a look @ www.pap-parts.com. I got a pair of turbo tie rods for my 911. With shipping $106.00 & the parts were delivered within 3 days. Very impressed. Most all parts were considerably less than Peek Performance, Tweeks, & way less than Pelican Parts. Give it a look. Mike

There's got to be a catch... they only ship be carrier pidgeon... They're a front for an illegal smuggling operation (wait.. scrath that - I'm getting them confused with someone else). Any idea where they're located? BTW - check out the "overstock" section, AKA the "crap so expensive no one could afford it" section. Quite a selection. Need a brand new OEM Targa Top? Yours for only $4,650.00. That's almost $1000 off!

I had a problem wit PAP about 1-1/2 years ago. I ordered a rear Carrera caliper, and they sent me an SC caliper. When I phoned in the order, I asked them to call me before they boxed it up for shipping, so we could verify it truely was a Carrera caliper (as another vendor had recently sent me an SC caliper instead of a Carrera caliper). Long story longer, they did not call, and the caliper turned out to be an SC caliper. I had to ship it back to them. They reimbursed me for the purchase price, but would not pay me back for the return shipping.
Oh, and I missed a DE because of this!

Check out Pelican for threads on PAP, they have a history. I bought some stuff from them and it was blantly the wrong parts, I ended up challenging the charge as they didnt respond to any pleas for help.
