Hi, are there any car enthusiasts here who like to mod their cars?
I am asking because i am thinking about starting to order my own parts instead of going to tuning shops wanting to order a 200$ item just to find out that it will cost me 400 once it gets here without taking into account whatever profit the tuner decides to add on the item. But then i think about it and decide to go for it since its a hassle free process, you just pay and receive after a week or so,without doing any paperwork or going places or whatever. If it turns out to be a fairly easy process and i am able to predict accurately what the item will cost me then i might consider ordering the stuff myself and save a few hundred dollars.
The stuff i would like to order are:
Bixenon headlights
Lowering springs and shocks
Brake disks pads callipers
Catback
Just a small example of what i'm looking to order
Does anyone face a similar problem when considering after market parts?
