The FreshAlloyClub membership is only $50, I saved more than $50 from Grubbs alone!

das awesome. i tink the dealership quoted me 410 bucks for a front lip. Is that 50 dollars one time fee or annually? I think I might order that and splash guards or sumpin'.

The Club membership fee is annually. But if you need to get the front lip it will be worth it.

EverythingG35 said that their cost of the lip is around $289 since Infiniti increased the price. I wonder if Grubbs is actually losing money on this... It was shipped with instructions and mounting parts but did not have any packing material in it. The box was deformed when I received it but the front lip was not damaged or scratched.

I got a Carl Ghosn book, FreshAlloy shirt & cap, and tirerack neck holder thing. It took 4 months for my stuff to come tho... I too was originally going to get my car from Grubbs since they had the best price at the time.

Now someone has to convince Grubbs to get the Gialla grill!

this is the email i got from Grubbs:

Hi Marc,
The free shipping for Fresh Alloy Premium members is for ground shipping only, so unfortunately we can't offer free shipping to Hawaii, but if you e-mail me the items you would like to purchase I would be willing to pick up a portion of the freight if you decide to become a premium member of Fresh Alloy.

Sincerely,
Mark Budenhagen
Parts Manager
Grubbs Infiniti
(817) 359-4180
mbudenhagen@grubbs.com





so asao, i guess you were lucky to get your stuff shipped for free.
unless...you can order a front lip and splash guards for me and tell them you got your stuff shipped for free before. hehe...nah. but yeah, that sucks. If i'm gonna spend more than 300 bucks on a front lip, I guess I'll go with an aftermarket lip.

sux!
Hawaii (and Alaska) are always excluded from any kind of "free shipping"
It's like we're excluded from the rest of the United States of America from a political stand point.

Hm... I guess I got lucky with Grubbs then. However, they did ship both of my orders for free. I purchased it through the website - it prompts you for your Freshalloyclub name and shows no charge for shipping after you input it. All I know is that they lost money on both of my orders... I wonder if the person who handles the internet orders still works there?

The front lip installation was not that bad... I managed to install it by myself.
