i bought some jdm crx doors from them once, if your dealing over the phone, make sure they know what your talking about first, they told me 1 price over the phone and then after getting there and looking at the part themselves, they tried to raise the price on me

+1 ronald's kinda of an *** but he means well.. i've done lots of bizz with him for honda nissan and suby stuff.. 240 guys don't really like him because they buy a motor from him and then they go rev the **** out of them and blow them and pin the blame on quality..

over the last couple years I have bought two JDM legacy bumpers with beam and fogs, power folding heated mirrors with switch, RFRB Grill and spoiler, B4 grill, GT-B Bilstien shocks/struts, gc8 aluminum control arms and a few other items.d

Ron is hit or miss with prices on the parts. For instance, he was on the high side with the complete bumper with fogs but sold me a FULL set of GT-B bilstien's for $50 for the set!


Dont try to haggle too much with him because he will just as well tell you to **** up a rope.

Best to call ever other week as he is always getting new containers in.

Here are some photos from the last couple times I was there... these are all within the last year.

BE SURE TO INSPECT THE ITEM INSIDE AND OUT BECAUSE RON IS NOT. He is too busy to do anything other than remove the parts and sell them.

I used to buy b16a swaps from him back in the day, he would let me test them before purchase. Good guy.
