Anyone bought from Cars245 before?

Found that they have some of the parts I need that other places don't have, but can't find much info on them, anyone bought from them before?

Yes, I bought my Euro Sun Visors from them as they had the best price at the time, even with shipping. Arrived safely, well packaged, and were OEM. Be prepared to wait a little bit though, I think it took ~6 weeks from order date to receive them. Ordered on 3/24 and they were dispatched on 4/12, then took a week or two to get to me.

I believe Fat Goose had a good interaction with them. If he is on dry land I'm sure he will update.

They delivered as advertised, just took a while due to customs.

Yes, I've bought a number of Euro market E30 M3 parts that were difficult to source in the US. Expect shipping to take a good 3-6 weeks (which is in line with what they promise, IIRC). Everything was well packaged and what I ordered.

And much cheaper than what some "drop shippers" vendors are charging for parts that you can purchase yourself from Cars 245.
A little research will go a long way M3Post members.
