Guess how much the Dealership asks to get OZ side skirts?

I went to the dealership today asking about purchasing OZ side skirts. Dude, they cost over $400 A PIECE! Not a pair. Thats ridiculious. i forgot to ask them if they came painted, but i'm sure they're not, thats just stupid of them to charge that much? gahh. is there any other way to get some frickin OZ side skirts?

Dealership marks their prices 200-300% more than the average retailer. It's cost shifting like the entertainment venues like the movies and sporting events. What a 4 buck hot dog and a 5 buck beer? Well, you get the picture.

Just another example of Mitsu treating their customers like dirt.
Go to a body shop, they can get them at cost and paint it for you and probably charge you the same amount installed.
But you can do the install yourself, it's simple.

as long as mitsu warehouses still have stock in the color your looking for, the side skirts come Pre painted. Mitsu will sell them painted as long as their is stock, once the stock is gone, they move to the next color and you have to have it painted to match

not all dealerships are bad, a lot of times it is Mitsu corperate pricing, such as in this case. LIST price on the skirts is 430 each. I have talked to some dealers who try to sell them at matrx price, which is mark-up on top of list. I work at a dealer, and I sell the parts at staight list, no matrix mark-up. Unfortunatly, there are dealers out there that give the rest a bad name
