ebay (whatever deal you can get)
procarparts (about $65 shipped)
THEN
any number of places with fairly inexpensive shipping
THEN
custommaxima and ask for a discount on shipping.

good luck

You think clears would of gotten cheaper since there popularity amongst some members/owners??? I guess it's the opposite:more poplularity means more $$$$....

I got lucky. After I got my car, I was looking on ebay around 3 am and found a set of rears for 16 bucks plus 5 for shipping. Then I got my fronts from Ramsey for 20 dollars w/o shipping. Both sets for 41 bucks. Not to bad.

Its strange though. You invest money into your car that people say you will never get back. You decide to sell your car, strip the parts, and walk away realatively close to even now.
