If you don't buy the parts from your guy, he's not making any money on markup. Essentially, you're taking money out of his pocket, since usually parts markup is a factor in determining what hourly rate to set.
My indy charges 1.5X if you bring your own parts. Well, he doesn't for me, but for most customers he does :).
I've never brought my own parts to the dealership I use, but I assume they'd charge more too.
