    I've had my shop install a used suspension for me, not sure why I should feel bad about it.

    I spent the time and effort to find exactly the parts I wanted on my car at the price I wanted, a service that the shop isn't going to offer me.

    As a repeat customer I would have been insulted if they upcharged me on the labour just because I brought in parts they could not offer me anyway.

    And I'm guessing the people who bring their own parts are typically knowledgeable repeat customers who likely bring in enough word-of-mouth business to the shop to offset whatever profit may be made on the parts.
