Anyone used aftermaket body parts?

Hi
I was wondering if any of you used aftermaket body parts such as fenders, bumper, etc.?

I crashed my car through the front and I have seen various parts over at ebay extreemely cheap new...

I want to know opinions from you guys about fit and finish for theese parts.

Thanks

Thumbs down

please dont go after market. my dads done 2 fbodys with after market. they are hard as hell to get to align up and look right. the front bumper doesnt align with the hood and the fender of the camaro and hes still workin with the firebird. they both have been to the body shop they just dont curve right. they are trouble. try to avoid it and save ur self the work.

I too have messed with them, run the other way as far as you can, structural pieces like headlight brackets are pretty dookie too. I strongly urge you to pay the extra for GM pieces.
