Don't assume that other suppliers will be cheaper. A lot mark OPC prices up.
As a TIPEC member I get 10% or sometimes more on parts from an OPC.

check teile.com in Germany and Rose Passion in France. Type911 is usually competitive as well.

I have often found OPC to be cheapest, oddly.

Agree. Try OPC first. There are some egregious marks up floating around. As an example- GT3 brake ducts for a 997/987 regularly advertised online for c.£30. They're £5.23 a pair from Porsche!

Hi It all depends on what age and type of Porsche vehicle you have.

There are a lot of suppliers for aircooled parts, but some items are dealer only.

If you could post the vehicle and what parts you would be looking for.

Bought quite a few bits, apart from the previously mentioned suppliers, from FVD Brombacher. You DO need to shop around because it all depends on what you are buying.

Thanks for the replies, car is a 997.2 C4S.

Looking at rear anti-roll bar drop links.

Car is also under warranty so looking for genuine parts.
