Default Re: Under hood insulation

You want to see something weird? These two seem like the are both Flow Automotive:

gmpartsdirect
https://secure.gmpartsdirect.com/sec...r.cfm?faqid=28

hummerpartsonline
http://www.hummerpartsonline.com/ind...?mod=faq&cmd=v
(search for Flow Automotive)


Since both can't ship to me as they don't use USPS. I am going to have to find another company, have it first shipped to my parents, or have my parents get it from the local GM dealer and then mail it to me. I have some shipping restrictions: like 70lbs and like 130 inches in overall girth. Do you guys have a guestimate on the size / weight of the box it came it?

Why are your parts so inexpensive? Is this for real?

Yes our prices are for real! We sell only original current production original equipment HUMMER Parts. Parts and prices listed on our site are based off HUMMER pricing.

This is great. Their prices are so low because they overcharge on shipping and handling.

When I emailed gmpartsdirect.com about being unable to search for parts on their site without the part #'s, they referred me to their "sister" site hummerpartsonline.com.

So when I want oem accessories I find what I want at hummerpartsonline and then buy it at gmpartsdirect.com

12498478 Oem Brushguard (black)

hummerpartsonline.com 458.60 shipping 91.56 total 549.36

www.gmpartsdirect.com 491.98 shipping 9.95 total 501.93



I just bought the brushguard from gmpartsdirect.com and saved about 50 bucks. Don't let the lower prices at hummerparts fool you, they f*** you at the drive thru, I mean with handling charges.

I picked mine up on ebay for $87.00 + $15.00S&H a couple days ago. Here is the link. The guy has already shipped it out and I should be seeing it here soon. I will post some pics. This is the factory one with the H3 logo.

Default Re: Under hood insulation

Is the water that drips down from the hood vent tabs going to be a problem with the underhood insulation?

Very nice! Once again I feel screwed by our Exchange Service. I am sure you'll receive yours before me. Let me know how the install goes, and I look forward to the pictures.

Oh god I hope not. I guess we all are going to find out soon. We'll have to report back.

Awesome. Looking forward to the pics. Mine will probably be another few weeks as mail can be a bit slow getting to me which is okay as I have (1) a battery problem, (2) my key stuck in my ignition, and (3) stabilitrak and tcs errors ... and only 253 miles.

I like it. It really dresses up the engine bay

Is that a dent in the top center from the oil cap?

It does dress up the engine compartment, but don't expect it to mask any engine noise...It still sounds the same as before - more cosmetic than anything.

No, the indentation is part of the blanket.
