Vivid Racing: Are they reputable

Does anyone have any comments on Vivid Racing? I found their site and it appears they are a re-seller of others..I found an oem porsche part less than what I can buy from anybody else on line or the dealer..are they legit or am I being naive.

They're awesome, i've bought a bunch of things from them, from my Softronic ECU mod to my HRE rims, and the customer service has always been top notch...just ask for Dan, he'll take care of you

That said, I'd recommend them in a heartbeat

I'm here.The part is the oem carrera front spoiler and wing. You listed as 000 044 802 04. the Porsche dealers list it as 000 044 801 90. I wanted to insure that it is indeed the same part. Your pic of it on your website is Porsche's Techequipment page...and I wanted to confirm that the front bumper is poly..any assistance would be great. Still waiting for a call back from our rep(Sean?).

The part number we show is for the lip spoiler ONLY and rear wing. Porsche just emailed me a quote... I am removing the product from the website. It is 1/3 of the price of a used 996C2 now LOL. I suggest checking out some of the aero components from Precision Porsche here - http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/b...=38&class_8=38
