i've heard both good and bad. no personal experiences myself, although if you search, specifically in the best buys forum i think you'll find some info in the archives. good luck

when i first got into the import scene i bought from them once... i saw their ads all over super street and sport compact car so i though they would be a reputable business... well turns out they overcharge out the *** and take too long to ship... i learned my lesson the first time around... the best company ive ordered from so far is http://www.optionsautosalon.com ... good prices and fast shipping... if you dont choose options auto atleast check out as many places as possible... im sure you will find a better one than nopi

oh almost forgot... one good thing about nopi is that they have a wide variety of years and makes of cars... so if you have a really old or unpopular car, they might be for you

I have dealt with them many times
And its basically a 50-50 chance that you will get the right part
I live 5 minutes from the store so i can go back when they give me the wrong part
Don't deal with the clowns behind the desk or parts counter, call my friend up & he'll get you the right part
Dial (404) 366-4700 ask for Bobby Cribb he'll get you the right part

I've ordered from them a few times and haven't had any problems. They had the cheapest price on NGK plug wires for my ZC....also try Summit and JCWhitney.

I've ordered from them. Prices are kinda high, but the stuff is normally in stock. Their descriptions really suck though. They were friendly to me and my part was on my door step in 3 days.

I've ordered from...
http://www.nopionline.com
http://www.optauto.com
http://www.modacar.com
http://www.landspeedracing.com

I only had a problem with Land Speed Racing. They listed a part would fit my car, when in fact it did not, and my shop proved it! They refused to give me my money back. They'd only do an exchange, shipping at my expense, and this was their f*ck up! Never again will I deal with them.

I got my fluidyne from them. Their price was competitive and I needed to get it in 3 days, my car couldnt run until I got it. It came on time, and I was happy.

Im not sure about Nopi when you order from them, but they will cut you some good deals when you go there personally. I live in Atl,Ga near Nopi thats why i dont have to order. but the KYB shocks they sell me those 35-40 a piece, and i can get the TOKICO blues all 4, for 170. But as far as going to them and buying it there legit.

PHIXIONEF91- Its legit, there 38.90 a piece but since you will be ordering them,the shipping will make it more.

I've only dealt with them once, and I ordered a pair of Power Slot rotors. I placed my order on a Sundy and recieved them on a Wednesday. I didn't pay for any special shipping, so I was amazed at how fast I got them. So, my one and only experience with Nopi was pretty good.

Our car club is registered with them and they have been great to use. We have never had a problem. And yes Nopi does sell some quality stuff. But to answer the question, yes I trust them.

was talking to another guy who ordered from them a few times... he said that he ordered online and they processed his order and sent him an email a few days later saying they didn't have all of his order in stock after it stated it was in stock online... then they send half his order and never tell him when the "out of stock product" is in... wtf??

The only time I ever ordered from NOPI was a Razo black rosin shift ****, the price was great ($28 shipped, over $50 from the local shop) but the shipping was poor, $10 for them to ship it UPS Ground in a ghetto *** cardboard tube that was 2 sizes too small...my friend tried ordering Z3 fenders for his rex ( don't ask) from them and they gave him the runaround for 6 months after taking his $$$ before they decided they couldn't get them and refunded his $$$...I'd say go thru Options and if they don't have what you need then use NOPI as a second option.

http://www.optauto.com and http://www.inlinefour.com are the two places I shop online. They both have good prices and really fast shipping.

I bought my Gr2s from tirerack, which I recommend to anyone, good service and fast shipping, but anyway, that's about right. I paid $40 a piece for the fronts and $34 a piece for the backs.
