radiator crack.., any suggestions ?? Options

[yellowxboy]

i went to the mall with my friends yesterday and on my way back towards the freeway .. i noticed white smoke coming out of my hood .. i pulled over and opened the hood and it turned out that my radiator had a crack and was spewing out steam or wutevers.

my dad called his friend who works @ a repair shop said that he could fix it but the downside is taht today is sunday and he has to order the parts from a Toyota Dealership. the total cost will be $185 [to me, that sounds cheap, right?] thats including install and labor.

i guess my Q is: should i get an OEM radiator or is there a better aftermarket one out there? i dont think it makes a difference but if i am going to replace it, i want to get a good one.

thanks
