Got my brand new Genuine GM bumper yesterday. Cost me virtually the same as it would have from gmpartsdirect without all the problems I hear they have.

Went exactly how every order should, ordered my part, called in for my tracking number, recieved my bumper, done. Hassle free.

I've spent $1500+ from Dal in the past 6 months fixing my car up.. Perfect everytime. I don't even ask about price anymore. I just tell him my part numbers and about a week later they're here..

Dal's prices are 10% over cost, all the time everytime. Basically gmpartsdirect' total price (IE, go ahead and add in their BS packing fee for each item)..

Wrong. Here's Dal and his story. You may have met Paula. She works in shipping and has been picking up some of the slack. Dal mainly works out of his home from what I understand.
