Where to buy Factory and OEM parts?
Do you guys have a “Good and Bad list of suppliers for your 911’s?

Paragon Parts - probably the most inexpensive place and great customer service
Pelican Parts - very good and they have just about everything
Vertex - I've bought a few things from them and no problems
I'd say about 90% of the stuff I buy comes from Paragon or Pelican.

For genuine Porsche box OE parts, Sunset is cheaper than anyone, sometimes by a little, sometimes by so much it's embarassing. Their customer service is still primarily phone based, though, and their web site is useless.
For OEM substitutes and anything without a Porsche part number, Pelican, Vertex, etc.

I have always used www.autohausaz.com and never had a problem, and never found it cheaper anywhere else. I find Pelican has everything but is quite expensive.

Pelican Parts for me in So. California. They may be a little more but they seem to have the best selection of actual OEM manuf.r parts. They offer free shipping and you can track shipments. Very good customer service unless it is a special order part. Otherwise, I also use Performance Parts and pap-parts.
