Front air dam - Your opinion on price?

I am looking at getting the front air dam for my 8. Dealer wants $460. However, found it direct wholesale for about $200. Is $200 too cheap and I'm getting screwed where there is something I don't know about? Or is this a deal?

Thoughts....opinions?

Thanks!

Go to ebay and snag one of these pre-painted dams... I bought one and they are factory OEM (perfect) I just needed to drill 6 pilot holes for the guide screws into the bumper and it looks awesome.....love it.

I offered $175.00 delivered and they took it! Hope this helps

Actually...that's the $200 one I was looking at. Comes to about $200 with their s/h. Was thinking of offering $150 out the door and see where it goes from there. Nice to know someone else has purchased this. Think I'll go that way....thanks!

Got mine from that seller for $150. I didn't have the guts to drill my bumper though so I had my dealership do the install. They charged me $80, so it came to around $250 total. Still saved about $200 over buying the part from the dealership.

It is a very easy install.. just take off your ft bumper and they have the drill hole locations clearly marked. just get the proper drill bid and boom its that easy. Yellow is very very easy to find. not that much money to purchase one as well. .about 150.

Contact: Autopartauction on ebay they had a lot of the yellow ones for a very nice price.

I do not have any ties to them I just purchased my OEM mazda lip kit from them and got GREAT pricing and service.
