    Were buried with wrecks, getting parts isn’t a problem….need to get some insurance appraisers out to look at them though.

    We have been busy, but no trouble getting parts.

    Speaking of parts did you guys know about the deal Chrysler has going on where they will match aftermarket prices? I think they just extended it until March. When insurance writes aftermarket you can get OEM for the same price. I know it isn’t topic related but I thought I would throw it out there since you mentioned parts.:)

    Does Chrylser match aftermarket list to what they cost it to you, or do they match the aftermarket list and discount it further so you can still profit on the parts?

    they just match a/m list so you have to eat the profit:blink:

    We mainly use this for bumpers. I would rather eat the markup on the OEM bumper than have to mess around with a Tong Yang bumper. Our Chrysler parts guy works with us a little bit so we can still get a small markup. Your going to loose somewhere, either in markup or in labor messing with aftermarket parts. Plus our Chrysler stocks almost everything so we can get on the job faster.
