Rubber rip off...

Post by Brodie »

Whats it worth these days for a complete rubber kit?

I got quoted 1200 bucks for basically a whole kit minus the front and rear screen rubbers, firewall kit and three inner door seals... which would knock off a few hundred

I know the guy personally and he wouldnt rip me off but i still reckon thats way overboard.. whats everyone else been payin?

Over $1800 for the wagon kit, I recon your price is not too bad!

I got quoted 1400 bucks a while back for a complete sedan rubber kit, so that sounds about right.

it sounds a little dear based on cals price a the windscreen rubbers over $100 each doors @ about $50 each not sure on firewall kit spose 30ish
have you tried going with just a list of the rubbers you need and getting individual prices, i did it a few years back and saved quite a bit and got all the rubbers that counted
sometimes yor just better off shitting in yor hands and clapping

I paid nowhere near that price as I got them from Universal Engineers(www.uesint.com.au) I knew the sales rep (Phil Glass) he's a car guy if he can find my old invoice that would be easy but that was a long time ago if not take him a sample of your rubber and tell him how long you want it, you can also get your bailey channels & window anti rattle strips with the stainless trim on it
