Where do you guys buy parts?

The junk yards around here are so picked over it is unreal. I went looking for a rack, one E36 in the 6 yards in my area. The whole front end of the car had been scavenged. I would love to have a junk yard to buy parts from.

Pelican for oem
Rackdoctor for R&P
Turner and UUC for aftermarket parts.

Well. This got a great response, thank you! I will have this bookmarked and check out all the sites mentioned.

My neighbor's garage when he is sleeping

I would also like to try this place, do you have an address?

Junkyard, r3v, Danny, other friends.

bma! so close to were i live

Instead of purchasing a rebuilt PS pump, why not rebuild it yourself?

The rebuild kit is all of about $35. Very easy to rebuild.

If you want ship to me, I will get a Genuine BMW Rebuild kit, rebuild and get it back to you for $65. You pay shipping of course.

I use www.autohausaz.com fairly frequently. Quick shipping and usually competitive prices. If not the lowest... pretty close and I like to get everything I need from one place.

This

Also, BMA. They both offer free shipping over a certain amount which is nice.

i use to use rock auto, auto haus AZ, and pelican, but then i got fed up with there lack of continuity/ shipping the wrong parts.



switched to blunt and i have never been happier, best customer service ever and shipping is fast as hell.
steve is the man and his guys will get your order right every time.

For aftermarket performance parts, since all the OEM stuff has been covered, try:

bimmerworld
Turner motorsport
AKG
UUC
Ireland engineering
Revshift

Levent @ Guten Parts

Blunttech and Levent. Don't need to go anywhere else.

Huge +1 for me. I've never needed anything that Levent wasn't able to get for me faster and cheaper than anywhere else. Also the best customer service I've ever had at any vendor.

does anyone use bav auto? i use them all the time and i am wondering if there is an issue why i shouldnt use them.

There was a time when Bav Auto and BMP were pretty much the only game in town. But that was 20 years ago.

They have a limited selection of parts and you end up paying more both for the parts and for shipping. I don't see the point of using them anymore now that there are so many better options.

My yob. I figure if I'm going to get parts for my car, I might as well go OEM. 10% above dealer cost, FTMFW.

Levent has all new parts and many used as well. Seems to have good advice too.

[peytonracer4]

pelican is awesome
autohaus seems to be good.

[deutschman]

Yeah Levent is great as well
