Has anyone had much experience with parts from the CarsRus ebay store? I saw a front grill for a HZ there, and seeing as someone in the past saw fit to take to the chrome on mine with what looks like sandpaper thought it might be a cheap replacement: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/H....c0.m14.l1262&_trkparms=|293%3A1|294%3A30 also http://cgi.ebay.com.au/H....c0.m14.l1262&_trkparms=|293%3A1|294%3A30 Where would these parts come from and would they look / fit OK? The store seems to have pretty good feedback but Im always wary when getting this sort of thing from ebay for the obvious reasons.

Ive got a Chinese Grille that I picked up with some other parts that some old lady was sick of storing for her son. Its absolute garbage compared to a proper one. Might look ok from 20 metres away but you can really see the differences in the plastic when you get up closer. Spend an extra $40 and get a good used one.

Ive seen a cheap repro front apron on a WB ute. Looked fine from a few metres, so far a driver, all good, but the shape was a good 5-6 mm out around the edges. And that couldnt be fixed with alignment.
As for smaller parts, the same holds true. You get what you pay for. |

Ive just ordered a set of VN Commodore headlights from him. I know of someone who has used them and they were quite impressed by them. I guess Ill see when they turn up. :-)
