My post dissappeared........anyways I dealt with them once, I ask for 2-3 day shipping. My part got set aside for special shipping. I called 5 days later and it never shipped. They were no really friendly to me either. I hope you have better luck.

Mark are you in WI now. I thought you were in a different state at one point. If you are in Madison you are about an hour away from me, Jim912928 and Andy Z. I sure there are others I just cant think of their names right now.

yeah, i took a job in Madison! it is great to be back in my home state! I was in New Mexico, then in Idaho, for a few months, but Madtown now. where are you located? hopefully by the end of next summer i will actually have a car that i can drive and show off! I AM hoping to get together with whatever 914 community we have here in WI though!!!!

They are local to me... 5 miles away FWIW

They used to go by the name of PAP (Porsche Audi Parts) and the place is owned by Joe Cogbill...

Slow shippers. Good merchandise, reasonable prices. Slow shippers. The Cap'n

I'm in Mukwonago, Jim and Andy are in the Brookfield and New Berlin area. I was thinking of some sort of get together here sometime. There are some nice drives, nothing spectacular but decent for the area. We should try a local gathering next year.

I have bought a couple of things from them and never had any problems.

I bought a 911 suspension from them. They were very helpful and friendly. No delivery problems as I drove over ther and picked it up. Got a nice tour of the place. The parts were good, but they are in business to make money so no real steals.

I bought several things from them when they were PAP. Didn't seem to be slow shipping. I could usually have the part within a couple of days.
