Parts and paint price increase

Every year on January 1 and July 1 Toyota submits a price change on parts. Typically, the parts are increased by around 1-2%. Sometimes the prices decrease on certain parts, but more often than not, they are increased. The purpose of this post is just to give everyone a heads up.

Also, the fee to have parts painted is going up about 10-15%. My painter has informed me that his materials are going up, and he needs to increase his prices slightly to still be able to accommodate us. For example, the price to have a Pro grille surround painted has been $125 for about two years now. It will go up to $145. A pair of bumper ends was $150, and will now be around $170. Still great pricing compared to some of the quotes I've been getting from other body shops.

You may display your disgust in the comments below, but I may or may not pay any attention to them.

Not your fault @Roman
Thanks for heads up.

 

Should offer free shipping to make up for inflation.

 

Or is it...

 

Such is life, thanks for the heads up!

 

Thanks for heads up @Roman, its nice to know inside tips like that.

But I'm still going to rant about it!

 

Guys, I can't make my Ferrari payment if I don't up the prices. I REALLY like this thing, so help a brotha out!
