Bought a pair of Eibach 2.5" race springs from Jon Ackermann. Very happy with the transaction. Quick shipping, good communication and a better-than-advertised product.

my first purchase from Christopher Kohler was a great one. I'm typing this in the back seat of my e28 as my friend is driving the final leg home in Elyse from Phoenix. I know i'm the road trip joke guy but i don't mind. Getting quality parts at fair prices is what i love about this board. But the best part is meeting the quality people suck as Chris who not only helped me install my hood and trunk/wing, but gave me a fuse box cover as well (mine flew off while driving to phoenix without a hood). Overall him and Eric (vatoloco) are world class people. I merely dropped off some rollers for Eric's parts car but he was gratefull and appreciative. He was also understanding of my urgency to get back to Casino Morango for the all-you-can-eat buffet. Thanks Phoenix guys, I had a great day b/c of you.


p.s. I straight traded the style 5's for those kosei's. Sorry chris.

This past weekend I drove to Statesville NC from Durham to meet with Steve (tacm) about some parts for my car. It was a great experience and it was a pleasure to do business with him. He is just starting a parts business which will help keep our cars on the road for a reasonable price. But above all he is a genuine and upfront guy who is very knowledgeable about the cars we love.

It was a pleasure meeting you and I will see you soon. Thanks again.

Hi Manny,

Thanks for the visors and the radio. Everything was received in very good working order. The visors look GREAT in my 2002! The radio works well too, and is exactly what I wanted. Thanks for the original paperwork with the code! I will definitely contact you again when I need parts.
FYI...the parts came one day later than originally stated, which was reasonable to me...
Best Regards,

Tim

If it worked fine, how did it need TLC? As long as the u-joints were good and it wasn't rusted, it wouldn't be in bad shape.

I've dealt with South26 and what I bought from him was exactly as described.

Xs 2, you need to be a lot more clear before you potentially harm a fantastic seller's reputation.

I have no love for driveshafts, I only abuse them :laugh:

What did you expect, for it to have a new shiny paint job?

Back in 2009 sometime, I bought a pair of lockstrips form ElGuappo. Certain things came up and several months later I still didn't have them. Then, I heard from Jay last week. He said he's ship them out that week and that was great.

Got the package yesterday. Jay came through in a big way. Not only did he send me the lockstrips and a much desired piece for my touring (tailgate wiper arm), he shipped the lot FedEx Express Saver. I was blown away. I obviously was dismayed with the initial slow response, but I more than appreciate his willingness to make it right. Sure, it just took some time. Anyway, thanks Jay!

Also had a good transaction with schwarzie. Bought some headlamps from him. They came quickly and well-packed.

Mogie sent me some Euro bumper pieces with lightning speed. Thanks.

South 26 (Andy) sent the package with my Euro low beams and clock quickly and for a great price. Though he accidentally sent a digital US clock instead of an analog... he came through and offered a refund without me sending the clock back. Andy is a standup gentleman!

vataloco bought a Momo hub for a very fair price, he shipped promptly via USPS and packaged the item well.

OH, and a late kudos to Andy, aka MisterFixIt.
I have purchased multiple sets of headlight film from him and they always arrived promtply, were well packaged and even included some instructions for isntallation.
He is providing us a valuable item at a very reasonable price.
Thanks Andy!
