Scrap Yards
 

So, I've tried searching for some junk yards, and I've visited every shop on Mitchell Island.
Can anyone recommend or point me to other scrap yards that aren't on Mitchell Island? I can't seem to find any other ones besides them.

A friend and I are looking for misc. parts we can tear off ourselves. Something similar to Ralph's Used Auto Parts, where you can just browse the yard yourself.

Thanks in advance :thumbsup:

Surrey along Scott Rd. and some under the Patuello Bridge.

Any specifics?

High School parking lots? :thumbsup:

j/k
yea, there are a few places in Surrey, just google auto parts yard surrey or vancouver, etc.

i agree with the highschool parking lots haha j/kss

what are u looking for?

90 Accord driver side door handle, Del Sol wiper arm, other random shit.

I'm looking for specifically walk-in shit, so I don't have to deal with the retarded Niko Bellic GTA-like people there ahaha.

Ralph's is on Scott Road

Pick a Part in Chilliwack.

Not that many places let people pick a part because too many people steal things.

However compare with places south of the border, prices here are 40% more.

Already found a bunch of places in surrey that let you browse for stuff. Got all the things I needed.
Right off the patullo bridge, most of those Scott road auto places let you browse for parts.

Bigtime. It's worth a trip south unless you just need something small. Yards are WAY cheaper.

Anyone know any for BMW parts?

Or have had any experience with this place?

They are expensive if you walk off the street, a lot of the times just 20% off dealers price.. They are not pick a part.

Go to BCBimmer there are a few other parts suppliers there.

The site I provided or... something else?

The site you provided is for Affordable Autoparts in Burnaby.. they are not cheap. I got the run around a few times.. so no thanks. I told them the part number, and they showed me the wrong part, kept me waiting for 30 minutes and kept on insisting it is the right part even the part number is not right. In the end, I got a new part (door handle) cheaper new (no less) from Crevier BMW. The owner is Cantonese, who is paranoid about people going and look at the cars unescorted.

Lemme know if you see a virgin del sol trunk:haha:

Boo!

I'm looking to salvage some headlights from a car that is totalled.

Lame.

Oh man, you'll find lots of virgin hoods. I found a green one with the same supra-style spoiler as my rice.
I couldn't find any bumpers or hoods, but I managed to swipe some reflectors for my OEM bumper that's coming in ;)

i need some door hinges for my right and left door.. car is so old that the doors are sagging i have to lift the doors a tad when i shut it...T__T

lol well my hood was recently repainted.

i just need a trunk, it's been drilled into too many times:haha:

As I have said before go to BCBimmer.. and ask the parts you need, I am sure someone will pipe up.

where are the junkyards down south?

^How far down south? Abbotford Auto Wrecking has some good stuff, I hear.

Bring some tools and get crackin! :thumbsup:

Gundies is like Ralph.. they have a place in Bellingham

Yeah, nothing yet.

BCBimmers seems like a site more dedicated to older models whereas I'm looking for the some newer model parts.

For BMW parts you might try Alpi's European on Scott Rd. They are good guys.

try car-parts.com they let you select the parts, then they tell you what yards have them.
