mirrors?

[5.0Flareside]

where is the cheapest place yall have found to get new mirrors?

 

[tomtoc]

do you have the "nice", small ones, or the ones on the big arm?

 

[5.0Flareside]

small ones. if you can see in my sig the passenger side one looks like the solid black one. well its not supposed to be. the previous owners wife knocked the chrome piece off by a mail box. and my drivers side is busted and the wiring has been hacked.

Don't get them from the local parts store,if they even have that style.I'd say either find them in the local junkyard(I have seen some good ones down here),or get them from LMC or NPD.That'd be my best bet.

 

[5.0Flareside]

ive tried the local junkyards. but they want 75 per mirror. which is absolutly outragous. but im gonna try to see bout LMC

 

[Fordzilla80]

Dang dude,that's a rip off.

 

[5.0Flareside]

YEAH!! thats all the local yards are is ripoffs. its stupid. guess what they wanted for a front grill.

 

[Skandocious]

I'd stay away from LMC-- I've heard some bad stuff about their parts. Try Rockauto.com-- I just checked their site and they've got lots of different choices for very cheap. It's under the Body-Exterior category listed under Outside Mirror.

I bet they want around 60 for a grille.

Down here i've got a bunch of good ol boy yards,so I get away with stuff cheap.

I checked LMC,and they want 69.95 for one,and NPD wants 89.Your in trouble dude.lol.Looks like you're gonna have to live with your mirror.Or travel out of town to a cheaper junkyard.

I've heard bad stuff about Rockauto.com too.

The only thing i've ever heard about LMC that was bad was there replacement metal.But Chris(nflfreak) knows all about cheap tailgates don't ya man?lol.

 

[5.0Flareside]

they want 90 for a front grill. i was looking into getting one to paint the inserts to match my truck. or paint the whole thing to match my truck like the lightnings but to much money.

LOL,I know man,but you know how bad it was.lol.

And dang dude,that's way too much.I think they're like 30 bucks down here.

 

[Skandocious]

FWIW-- I've ordered countless parts from Rockauto and I've always been extremely satisfied with the quality and MORE SO with the prices. I order almost all of my parts from them.

 

[5.0Flareside]

wow. i was just looking at the prices on rockauto and they are great. a brand new grill is like 35 bucks for the chrome one. or the grey ones are like 20. i might just have to do that. and the mirrors are 75 for power ones. so its bout the same as the junkyards. oh well.

 

[Fordzilla80]

My dad's ordered a couple parts from them for his truck.I don't think he was happy with any of the parts he ordered.I remember he had ordered weatherstripping for the door glass,and within a couple months,it had hardened on him.

I've heard alot of good about Rockauto,but my dad never had any luck with them.

 

[5.0Flareside]

well ill see in a couple of weeks when i order the stuff i want.

 

[Fordzilla80]

a brand new grill is like 35 bucks for the chrome one. or the grey ones are like 20.

A new grille for my truck is 45.

But i'm restoring my truck anyway,so oh well.lol.

 

[5.0Flareside]
