Message	I've been doing parts at work now for 2 months and its amazing how much of a mark up there is on some stuff. The worst I've seen is on belts, and coolant hoses. They can be 7 dollars at cost then marked up to 30 dollars! The sick thing is that we are still cheap compared to BMW dealers! 92' 2+2 NA 5sp DD (also 71' Camaro project) 71' debut in August.
