you're better off getting it from Trinity Autosports (they're local too) and reputable "contributing" members here on e60.net . I just sent my cousin to them for an M5/Mtech style front bumper and side skirts last week.. It came out perfect.!!

I live in Chino and they are only 5-10 minutes from me. I contacted them about pickup and apparently they are making profits from shipping as their "pickup" price is different than "shipping" price. Amazing how an easier transaction (pickup) could cost $60 more. They want $390 picked up yet advertise $330 on ebay if shipped. Needless to say I hate these kind of business practices so I thought I'd share.
BTW: The only reason why I considered this over Umnitza is for convenience.

You should report your experience with them to eBay. Within the past year, eBay has instituted rules and policies against excessive shipping prices such as this. Hopefully, eBay will catch on to their deceptive practice and ban them.

I have seen this many times on eBay, sellers that are here locally but either refuse to let you pick up or try to charge you the shipping anyway. It's ridiculous.

well, i've purchased two cars from them and they still suck!lol...i've learned my lesson and i've taken my service and eventual future business elsewhere.
but at least they're taking care of you, maybe if you came with me and "backed me up"....they wont' treat me like a ugly Dinan step child!

. I called Riverside BMW and they only charged me $100. If I need anything done now I just take it there, and they almost always give me a loaner.
