Default Buying EOM body parts

Hi there,

Where would be the best place to buy OEM body panels? Bumpers, Fenders, etc.

Dealers are trying to ask for my blood. No point going there. Any alternatives apart from US sites?

If you start looking internationally, be prepared to get raped by not only the shipping companies, but also the tax man If the parts are expensive. Maybe have a look on Japan parts?

Never heard of them. Parralel importing sounds like fun, as long as they sell quality goods. Will give them a call later... cheers
