I need to get some new parts for my car and I was wondering where I can find some good prices on them. I need to get a new hood and a new header panel. I found a website with them for really cheap. http://www.1autobodyparts.com/productlist....ion&browse=true ('http://www.1autobodyparts.com/productlist.cfm?model_id=268&keywords=Hood&make_id=26&search_on=description&browse=true')
They want $126.57 for the DOHC hood and $54.54 for the header panel (t-bar). That is a great price considering Mitsu wanted $425.72 for the hood and $109.37 for the header panel. Mitsu also wanted $278.33 for just the left headlight so am gonna order the J-specs for a little more than that :biggrin:. I was wondering if I am going to have any problems with these fitting as I assume that these aren't ginuwine Mitsu. parts. Does anyone know where I can find these cheaper or any other good sites to look at? I already email DELRAY motors about maybe getting a discount so I will see what they have to say in reply.

Jspecs will cost you ~ $102 per headlights + shipping so id say about $300 total...not bad seeing how Mitsu wants $278 for one headlight :wink:

you might want to try to hit up your local junkyards, they always have cheap stuff

How hard or easy is it to put the header panel (t-bar) on? I may just put the header panel and hood on myself, and have them put the headlights in and body kit on.

Header panel is easy bro. You might need another person when you do the hood though.. atleast to hold it.

I couldn't find anywhere that could beat the prices you posted Jeremy, sorry.

Yea I figured that those were probably about the best prices.

I am thinking about just doing it myself but I don't want anything else to be screwed up. I am worried that I will miss minor stuff that the body will get. So I think that I will just take it to the body shop. I don't know though.

DO NOT ORDER FROM THAT WEBSITE! I tried ordering a T-Bar and they wanted to charge $50 for shipping and handling!!!!!!!!!!! They ALSO said in the email that they do not accept credit cards. Why the **** does it say we accept credit cards on their webpage? Look at my receipt:

I got my parts from www.autopartsland.com I put it in the links section. They have really good prices. Although I ordered them March 26th and still haven't gotten them but oh well, I'm not really in a hurry.

Sure did. It was actually pretty hard to find a place that had the DOHC hood. Luckily this place had the cheapest prices I could find and the right hood. For some reason, some of the places had the DOHC hood placed under the 95 instead of the 94 :?. I will let you guys know when I get my stuff and I guess it will be quality. I hope so.

Well I am still waiting on my parts. I called not too long ago like the 19th and they said that they would ship them out the next day and be here in 5 days. Haven't got them yet. So you guys may not want to order anything from them. This is pretty rediculous.
