    Exclamation A4 parts, I think I have an idea.

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Knowing that used parts often cost a buttload from places like Shokan,etc, I think I am going to try to make a solution to this problem.
    I have access to a local junkyard that has a few B5 A4's, and occasionally some S4's.
    My idea is that I would like to supply yall with parts needed at a reasonable price.
    EX: I spent $900 shipped for an unpainted door and fender from Shokan. I was raped with this price and I wanna try to make things cheaper for people while making some money on the side.
    I will be willing to ship all/most items that are reasonably sized while trying to keep a price lower than expensive used parts places. Also, I will ship to Canada/Mexico, as long as extra shipping fee's are paid for.
    What do yall think?

    Re: A4 parts, I think I have an idea.

    to help you stream line this process - you should either stat a thread or your email that you will request orders - print out a list and go pick the parts up - then handle it that way - only problem is that the price is usually unknown until you get it and after an additional charge for your troubles some people might back out and you are stuck with things you don't need -

    Sounds good, ill try to establish this.I can have the price for the part without actually picking it up as well. Luckily, I believe my local source allows returns in 30 days .

    I'm down. If you do as aytheory suggested, I will subscribe to that thread if you decide to make it and send request when time is right and funds is sufficient. I will not need, but want black S4 sides just as you just got. Great idea to help the AZ community. Thanks!

    Just be carefull because your thread will get deleted or you will end up getting a pm from a mod since you are not a AZ advertiser. Dont ask how I know.

    Re: A4 parts, I think I have an idea.

    Biketsai, if you get a warning or something is it ok if I just PM you if/when I need certain items? And if that is the case (as Mike just stated), would it still be a breach of terms for AZ if this thread were in the chatterbox forum? Because I have a subscribed thread of Rosati offering his dealership services for AZ members for reasonable fee and personally see nothing wrong with it as you are not advertising 'your products', but your services to find things for cheaper. Might want to request Onemoremile to move it there for you.

    Re: A4 parts, I think I have an idea.

    Or you could just point people to www.car-part.com and let them do the work... It will probably be cheaper for them also...

    Re: A4 parts, I think I have an idea.

    you'll make a good side business with this , if you setup a website and have an inventory list.

    I know people that make MAD coin parting out BMW's , the same can be done for Audi's
