Default Zip Products?? Advice

Hello all, if you read my other post, you know that I have a baby with a bruised nose. I just checked out Zip's online catalogue, and they seem to have the right peices to fix my broken ones.

Anyone have experiences with Zip, good or bad, and their fiberglass/front grille parts? Thanks! :smash:

Have no experience with the parts you're looking for, but ZIP is a class outfit that's been in business for decades, outside of Richmond, Virginia. Chuck

Have always been pleased with ZIP, last time I called for parts they checked stock without me asking, told me they were in and when they would arrive.

Zip is good and for real. I've actually been in their facility in Richmond. First-rate.

when you order, there is a spot for coupon/promotions code enter "CF-5" you'll get 5% off your order.

Guys, Zip is the vendor behind our forum "Restoration Store". If you click on that red tab at the top of the page, it is Zip. They have one guy in charge of internet sales named Andy Young. Since a large part of their internet sales come from the Corvette Forum he is almost like a Corvette Forum/ Zip sales manager. Although their customer service is especially good you can step it up a notch by dealing with Andy. He was at their booth at Carlisle (They provided space for the Corvette Forum) and he was very helpful when I have had questions about my orders. He checks his email regularly during the day. Instead of the typical pattern of sending an email to a vendor and receiving a reply the next day (or 2 days later), I have exchanged 3 emails with Andy in one day. MJ
