Courtesy reduced their standard discount to 15% or less off 
MSRP.  Used to be 25% off for anyone.  And as always, they still have 
mad skillz at f***ing up orders with more than one item, or items 
backordered.  Their packaging sucks, too.

Many guys have recommended Mossy Performance;  but I haven't used 
them yet, and their web site has been down for months now.

Googling for vendors may turn up Pinnacle Nissan / Infiniti -- 
probably should avoid them.  All the prices in their online catalog 
seem to be BS (though the catalog itself is nice.)  Your credit card 
will be charged closer to full MSRP.  When I complained, I was 
directed to the fine print, stating prices were subject to 
revision.  I pulled a charge-back on the credit anyway.  A year 
later, the same bogus prices are still advertised.
