Whats the best deal you've gotten for a part

Like the title says, how much did you get it, who did you get it from, and what did you have to do to get it hah.

My best deal was my sf challenges i bought from some woman who clearly didnt know what she was selling. i got them for 1100 shipped!

350Z carbon fiber engine cover. FREE! Waited three months...they kept saying it was on backorder. One day it shows up on my doorstep. My credit card was never charged.

Got a fully-built Supra TT from Pamela Anderson. She didn't like the colour and gave me a BJ for taking it off her hands.

Hahaha. Great response.

Hikkata Dori Hood for $400, instead of paying the $925 un-shipped that I was quoted by Kris.

My IvoryGT projector retrofit headlights for my Sedan were crazy cheap considering the headlight assemblies used were brand new (cost $900 each at the dealer) and I paid less than what one new one costs for both brand new custom projector headlights.

1) Kinetix HFCs for $105 shipped off ebay. Great condition, seller just listed them in wrong place so I snatched them up.

2) Volk GT-S 19x9.5 and 19x10.5 with tires for $1500, but had to drive from KY to NC to pick them up.

3) 06+ projector upgrade, bought projectors for $420 on ebay and sold my old 03-05 lights for $550!!! on ebay. Net cost -$130, so I guess that tops as my best deal on a mod.

I got 06 projectors for cant recall the exact amount but like 3 sumthin i think 360 or somethin for pair Canadian.

I got iso thermal MD 1/2 Plenum spacers, Cobb tuning access port, Magnaflow HFC 's for 800 Canadian.


For my previous coupe the 20" seva S22's with falken FK452 tires... ( fronts were like new rears were like 60% ) ... Saw them listed on here 2 years back will i was searchin the forums as a guest ... Buddy had his # up so i called him up and worked out a sick deal wheels and tires mounted for $600 But he needed the money urgently so i got a sick deal on those

For my previous coupe again i got my cousin to pick up a VIS racing carbon fiber hood for $80 but it had a small crack in da clear coat ... What killed me was the shipping was like close to 200... Its the hood that geerider had before he got his TS .

Other then that everything else has been just the average price here and there
