Ron, is that the right price?

Ron, is that the right price?

it seems high I agree and honestly I wasn't going to list them due to the price bit I kept getting requests.
The UK price with the US conversion is obviously much less
I have an email out to my sales rep at Powerflex to confirm pricing - it has to be an error.

Either way, I'll confirm here tomorrow. There may be a few people with small refunds due for pre-ordering these already

Ron, is that the right price?

circling back to this
the UK site is "per bushing" at 27.18 converted to US is around $36 x 2 = 72 USD for the set
still a discrepancy with price but it's not off the chart.

Wow that’s not cheap. Thanks for getting back though

Bet they're worth every penny. The stock isolators are complete junk. Mine are all collapsed and disintegrating. Ordered. Thanks, Ron!

thank you!

FYI for everyone

Powerflex USA has confirmed the pricing is correct - it's a bit steep for what these are but you have to pay for quality sometimes folks
replacing the bushings for the rear motor mount is around the same price tag, etc....these bushings from POWERFLEX are a premium product no doubt!

I can't think of anything for the front, bushing wise, that would need to be replaced by a company like powerflex. However, while you have them apart, hit up your dealer or online OEM dealer and get a pair of front bearings for the upper mounts. The mounts themselves are solid, but there is a bearing that is in between that can wear out. They're pretty cheap so definitely worth replacing while you have them out and apart.

I like the spring pads from powerflex since I have mountune springs with a small reverse rake, but I want to install these Bilstein coilovers I have first, if I don't like them as much I'll definitely be picking the upgraded spring pads before I reinstall the Mountune springs!
