yeah me too, alot of 'stylish' things can come from ebay. as far as like bodykits go though... don't risk it. and some parts are just godawful. i got a radiator support and i could bend it with my hands lol. thats not OEM quality..
just be careful man. if it looks too good to be true, it probably is. -------------------- **If you play My Brute, joing the 6gc.net clan!**

IMHO best is to know what do you want and just find proper seller on e-bay...

Most of the good stuff which is JDM will come from big sellers in Japan, Taiwan, or Hong Kong. Yeah, just make sure they have like very high feedback scores and they sell a lot of stuff.

id say the shift boot, e-brake handle and intake SHOULD be fine, depending on the brand/price idk what you'd get with the alarm or hid's. watch the fitment on the boot too. just look at the sellers feedback and how many items he/she sells. lots of deals on ebay
