If the parts are expensive, drive to the boarder and order through ECS tuning, otherwise you can order it through dealer for gaskets, they're inexpensive, plugs (and many other maintenance supply)can be purchased through amazon.ca for decent price.

GermanParts.Ca

Follow them on Instagram. They are constantly throwing up random sales, and free shipping discount codes!!!

I've purchased from them plenty of times. And they never disappoint!!

Even with Germanparts.ca , it seems that buying from FCP Euro and shipping to my home is as much or less expensive + I have lifetime warranty on the part.

With the exchange rate right now. I find this very hard to believe.

Just ordered 6 bosch coils, 6 boch plugs, a conti tech belt and a INA tensioner.

FCP with shipping in Cdn$: 386$ + about ~ 40$ duty and tax I suspect = 426$ charged on my credit card

German parts: Just added all same things except the belt since they don't sell any and total is 584$ Cdn$ (628$ if outside quebec) shipped and tax.


I added both exact parts to the cart. Wow I never realized it was THAT expensive... I was expecting german to be maybe ~ 30$ cheaper or equal.
