Sorry if it sounds like I'm being a jerk. It's just REALLY frustrating to be looking to get a set for well over a year. And constantly being out bid. But that's life. You don't always get what you want. I want to marry a supermodel. But that ain't gonna happen either.

I was able to get mine for $160, already black. I would never pay outrageous prices for them. I even think 160 is a little steep, but I had it available for the Monte.

I've never understood why people go so nuts for them.

i'm with you, +200 is a little much. . . .i've been wanting them pretty bad (especially cuz i don't know of a 7th gen. with em.) but it's pretty hard to justify spending $200 for plastic. doesn't keep me from wanting them tho i've seen a couple people with em on clubgp, one had em on there for a couple weeks with no takers, but every time i see em, they're always over $200. . .

why would you want them?! they look awesome haha.

just check clubgp everyday, you'll get them within a month, if you don't want to spend 180-200 dollars, then honestly, you wont get them.

They(GM parts direct) always tease with good prices then rape you on the shipping charges.

I paid $185 and mine were purple so I had to paint them but they were totally worth it !!!
Lisa is 100% correct on what GM parts direct do to you on the shipping that is where
I got my hood liner from and let me tell you
I did not even get dinner and a movie first I just got ____ed !! on the shipping but on the other side of the coin they did have the part I needed so you will have to weigh you options if it is worth it to you.
