Default What Mopar accessories are worth considering at dealer cost?

One of the deals (besides just paying invoice) from my dealer on my '08 Sahara unlimited was that they would give me any accessories at their cost. My Jeep just went into D1 yesterday (order placed June 25th) with a ship date of July 27th so I need to start buying all the goodies for it. I'm just curious what all you guys would get if you could get it for dealer cost. Unfortunately their front bumpers are ugly as that would have been a nice chunk I could have saved on.

fuel filler door
door sill guards
tail lamp guards
sun bonnet
slush mats
grab handles

My personal experiences (my Jeep or Dougr5150 or glwood) with all of the above have been positive.

Sweet I will add those to the list. Anything else? Is the Mopar bikini top the same or better than the best top one?

I was also offered this when i ordered mine. The dealer said that it was basically 20% off MSRP. Then they started screwing me and i bought mine from another dealer.

Which is funny she said that. Because the jeep club i belong to has a deal set up at another dealer ( 1 hour from me) that gives 25% off accessories (during certain months). Hmmm I wonder if the first dealer was being honest? I think not!

Nope, they lied, 20-25% off would be wholesale, not cost.

Get a group buy together!

"Hello, Mr. Sales Manager? Yeah, this is that guy you said you'd sell accessories to at cost... well, I need 7 fuel filler doors in black satin, 4 sets of taillight guards, a few pairs of windshield mounts [etc.] - Oh, and because I'm buying so many, how about you take an additional 10% off of that?"

The Jeep club I'm in, you get 25% off all mopar at a local dealer. The dealer is also a really big Jeep fanatic, so that helps.
