used part lots?

[LiquidK]

anyone ever dealt with a junk/damaged car lot before? i need some parts for a 02 civic and i really dont want to pay retail if i can avoid it, paying 3000 to get two new bumpers installed/painted really doesnt appeal to me

I went to one in the south. Walked in, paid $1 to enter, brought some tools to remove a side mirror, brought to front, paid $14 and left.

pick n' pull in the west (just off of yellowhead and 184st i believe)

they didn't have any recent cars last time i went

Try Payless Auto parts they have two locations, one used and brand new parts. Really good prices so far I havent found a place that can beat thier prices..check it out 403-590 0866

pink n pull had nothing, i was there earlier this week. for eveyr idiot who doesnt have an exhaust filter on his sunfire though, you should check the place out. and thanks shynepho, ill check it out

edit: called payless, and they said they only stocked new parts, possibly the other location?

a-1 auto has my bumpers in stock, gold unfortunately so id have to paint the damn things... but it seems like my best bet for 250 a piece =/

A & V auto parts is quite good, they have a good share of newer japanese cars. They are based in Saddleridge, right off of 44th street & Mcknight. NE

I can never find parts for my car from the yards...
have to go to sites such as car-parts.com to find the yards that actuality do the parts stripping to find "deals" on used parts

[LiquidK]

thank you graham, a & v had my rear bumper in the right colour for 300$ you just saved me quite a bit of moeny, now i just need to find the front and my winter ride wont look like total shit anymore

[Mr_ET]

How much is the new bumper painted? 300$ sounds like a lot for a used one.

[LiquidK]

400 for a stock unpainted bumper, a hundred or two for installation, then i think they quoted me at 5 or 6 for the paint, it seemed ridiculous when i heard it, so i shopped around looking for something cheaper and it all came up about the same.

edit: installing a bumper cant be that difficult can it?

Maybe just post it up on honda forums or just in teh marketplace. I found front and rear bumpers here for $20 each for an 04+ civic around 2 years ago. I never bought them cuz they didnt fit in my car, but I bought a pair of fenders for $40 just as spares because it was so damn cheap. If you ever wanna do the facelift for the Civic I can sell ya the fender lol.
