OK, here are the results...

Subaruparts.com: Best web site, best raw prices(about 24% off), only 2 small parts(fasteners) in stock, longest lead time for those out of stock, probably lowest shipping, longest ship times by ground. If I wanted to wait, or a big $ item, I'd probably try them.

subaruwrxparts.com Mostly useless web site for OEM parts. Filled out parts request with part numbers from the parts diagram on Subaruparts.com. They couldn't figure out what I wanted from those part numbers despite their ability to tell me that I probably got them off the parts diagram from Subaruparts.com. I then described them... The front fender liners, and all plastic fasteners for them and the air ducts that hook to them in the front for an 02 WRX sedan.... No response so far...

allsubaru.com/Subie Gal/ Jamie: Also mostly useless web site for OEM parts. Filled out parts request with part numbers from the parts diagram on Subaruparts.com. Got an email response in a couple business hours with all pricing(about 20% off), and estimated shipping. All parts except a couple of the fasteners in stock for same day shipping. Responded to additional email enquires in under 1/2 an hour each, answered the phone imediately, handled ordering quickly. Processed order and provided tracking number by email same day. Should be here in 2 days, AKA Friday.

I think every company is going to ahve some horror story, and some raving review. So far I'm pretty impressed with AllSubaru.com
