Just a warning to those so you don't get burned like I just did. Sonnen Porsche is located in California, so if you're shipping something relatively big, the shipping costs will overcome the savings and you'll be swimming in the red Just ordered some parts including a new front lip from porscheoem.com and the shipping charge came out to be US$172, which wiped out any savings I had. They didn't call or email the shipping charge before proceeding.

You should have Emailed them about Shippng Cost before ordering Farzan... Thats what i did for my Fender Liner... Although the Fender Liner was $85 USD, but the shipping was $37 USD ish via USPS... I just Paid Pfaff $133 CND Taxed for it and saved on the hassle

That's just messed up!!! Not sure what happened on your order,...... I just placed an order last Friday with Sonnen Porsche (Porscheoem.com) last week for a front lip and 2010 GT3 rear brake ducts, and the UPS shipping charge to Ottawa Canada was only $25US.

The parts manager (Greg Arteche) was great emailing my invoice and UPS shipping tags for tracking. He even called to confirm my address so he could get the order processed and shipped that day.

The order is on schedule to be delivered on Monday.

The total order incl shipping is approx the same as what I was quoted for JUST the rear brake kit at my local Porsche dealer (Incl PCA 10%).....

1Gunner, lucky you... do you know if they put a "Value" on the Invoice or the UPS Bill? When you Value less than $20 you dont get Charged... But a box that Big, full of new Parts...

Also how much did you save compare to local Prices?

Hey Peter, I'm working with Greg now to find a reasonably priced way to get the parts to me. Maybe they lost their shirt on your order, haha
