Question Body panels?
Anyone ever bought panels anywhere online? I've been looking on e-bay but I was wondering where you all have gotten yours from? Prolly get a bumper, fenders, etc. Maybe even an ss spoiler!

Don't buy body parts on ebay or any aftermarket ones. I purchased a bumper and two front fenders off of ebay. They fit like total crap. It was so bad I just gave them away and bought OEM GM parts. Just do it right the first time.

350$ish I think it was? heh, Can't go wrong with trying 45 dollars.. I'm sure they are returnable if not completely mounted and painted anyway.
