Rear difusers finally!
Re: Rear difusers finally!
Guys, I will call my parts guy tomorrow and see if he will sell these thru the mail. When he worked at a different Dodge dealer, they were a sponser for the Durango Club Website and offered discounts on parts and shipping. He is already gone for the day. I will try tomorrow. I will ask before posting his location and phone number.
Thanks for all the comments. James

Re: Rear difusers finally!
Ok Guys,
Good news and bad news.
I talked to my source today about the rear 'facia panels'.
Good News: The warehouse near Detroit has 22 pairs in stock. My buddy can get them overnight on the Chrysler truck.
Bad News: When this dealer does mail order, it is retail price, plus shipping. Add tax if you live in OHIO. $210 plus $10 shipping in the USA.
I asked several times about 'group buys' or special pricing and he just can't do it. The dealer he works at now is large and commercial, where his previous dealer he worked for was smaller low key trying to make all the sales they could.
So if anyone is still interested, all you need to do is call him with a credit card number between 9 am and 3 pm Eastern Time. PM me for his name and phone number as he didn't want it posted all over the internet.
He said any Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep dealer in the US should have access to these parts (#82209208) and if they say different, they don't want to help you.
Sorry I couldn't help out more on the price, but I did what I could.

Man... making a mountain out of a mole-hill. Do them yourself and you would have already had them on. As you said, they are a low risk item.
Buy a few Scotch scuff pads, some degreaser (etc), spray etching primer or epoxy primer and some Dupli-color black spray paint. And then some clear if you like.
Why would they need to wait for a black car? I would have laughed and walked out.

James1549, You are right, but I was concerned about painting plastic. I don't feel confident I would have done a good job. For $50, it's no big deal, and I'll get them in two weeks. I'm in no hurry. They had a couple of scratches they will fill in for me as well.
