The initial cost of the oil change kit is about the same as if I'd sourced all the parts individually. I can't fathom how they can make money doing this but FCPEURO will make me a full euro car convert

I checked out their insta. How da hell do they stay in business? Looks like they take back alot of stuff under the warranty? I presume the cost of shipping returning these items might be just as much as buying new parts?

Free ship for orders over $49. Customers do need to ship back the used items on their own.

their support is top tier, and the fact they warranty oil is essentially free word of mount marketing for them. Most people wont ship their oil back anyway.
Ive spend a couple thousand on FCPeuro parts this year alone.

That’s good to know. I ordered coil, plugs and filters from them without knowing. I also plan on using them for my brakes.

so you return the used oil back to them? How much does that cost for shipping?

depends on your location and access to shipping companies, but the one time i paid for return shipping I believe it was between 20-30 dollars, which effectively becomes the price of the oil change.
Might want to check out using a site like pirateship.com to see if you can send slower-than-prioprity via usps for a reduced rate.

Played in the dirt a little bit. Had some time to kill before an appointment and this dirt patch looked like fun. Took it really easy as I have no desire to have to replace a rim at the Porsche price of $7,500 each. Once the winters go on, we can have a little more fun.

I replaced the hood crest (peeling), pedal covers (worn brake pedal pad), tow hitch cover (damaged when I was just rear ended by a hit and run driver about 2 months ago, thankfully the mustang between us took the brunt of it, I got a bashed tow hitch cover and a few scratches on the bumper cover) and the rear wiper blade. Took all of about 30 minutes to do everything, even before having coffee.
