Hello everyone,
Just thought I'd pass this on. I ordered some Bilstein Sports for my 4000q on Monday from shox.com. Yesterday, however I was directed to a website from one of the members of the 944 list, that has an even cheaper price than shox.
If you're interested, the site is www.performancemotorcars.com They appear to be a worldpac distributor, with some pretty darned good prices.
For the set of 4 Bilsteins, shox charged me $449+ shipping.
The same thing on the performance motorcars site is $426.04 with free shipping.
Shipping was about $20, so it would have saved me about $43.
They also have some other parts that came in cheaper than from Rod at TPC, but I had already ordered them. For example, CV boot kits were $6 (lobro) and new lobro front outer CV's were $59.
Anyhow, no affiliation with the company, and I haven't ordered anything from them, so I have no experience, but the prices seem to be decent for parts they have. Also, it says they do free shipping for all orders over $50.
A big thumbs down to Shox.com for not matching the prices for me. Of course I found out about the other site after I had placed my order with them, but I was hoping they would take care of the difference anyhow.
Good Luck!
