Keystone aftermarket body parts?
Does anyone have any experience with them? I need a radiator core support to complete the repairs on my SS. Of course, GM just listed it as a discontinued part. Pisses me off. Now I have to go aftermarket, unless I can get a junkyard to cut one out and ship it to me. I am looking at Keystone's website and some people seem to think they have OK products. I can get the core support for $300 and my chevy dealer said they will do the best they can to work with it and get the car straightened out. Should I just go for it? My rad support is completely trashed on the car, but it saved the frame by just an inch or so. A little more speed and the car would've been totaled.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Also the part is not CAPA certified. I cant find anything that is in the way of Rad Supports for these cars...

keystone parts are capa certified, there sheet metal is the best in the aftermarket line, compared to other jap crap metal, keystone stuff shines like the sun with a big smile on its face
but headlights tail lights, core supports, not so much, radiators condensors great fit, fender liners forget it garbage!!!! reconditioned wheels from them very nice
i dont think they make a core support for your car might have to go oem on that one

so the core supports from them are garbage? can you work with it to make it fit? The OEM ones are gone, no more available in the whole country or canada. I think my body shop already ordered the core support from keystone..so i guess we will see how it fits. The one i have on the car now is junk. everything is smashed, twisted and broken

best thing you can get next to OEM IMO. We used a radiator support, pass. fender and hood from them for my buddies '95 sierra pickup. everything bolted right up, didnt require and extra "fabrication". just wiggling everything around for a few minutes to get everything to line up nicely and maintain even gaps.

we use keystone at our auto body shop for all our aftermarket parts. oe is still the best, but keystone is worth the money. and they are capa certified.
the guy that delivers to us though is kinda shady lol
