Foreign car parts place?
Hey guys,
I need to know where I can find a decent euro car parts place, preferably in the NW suburbs. I used to go to Fornparts over on Kirchoff in Rolling Meadows, but I was out that way a few weeks ago and it doesn't look like it's there anymore. Doing an online search turns one up in Downers Grove, but I was hoping to find one closer to me. At this specific moment I'm looking for a few sets of brakes (for the 944 and GTI) but would like to keep something like this in my back pocket for future use as well. Fornparts was always good when I used to have my 320i.

If your talking used (grassroots junkyard upgrades):
.....I dunno what they have now but I tend to get decent stuff from BC Automotive in ZION, IL why not just check on Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market to see who in the area has what you wanted?

Sorry, no, not talking used. New, just parts. NAPA, CarQuest, and Lee don't carry parts for Porsche.

I might be able to help you out. PM me what exactly you're looking for and the year, make, and model of the car.

I order my parts from PitStop in Crystal Lake. Reasonable pricing. I get BMW parts, OEM type stuff. If they don't have it, a call in the morning will get it in the afternoon.
