on ebay if i was gona buy some car parts how would i know that its good. cause i havent really used it that much and i hear of all these scams and stuff. is that really common or not so much. also how do i know that the stuff would fit onto our cars?

check the seller's feedback. the higher the percentage, the better. and remember, you get what you pay for.

Find out about the engines seller before buying(do some research). And like Joe p3t said, look for feedbacks and percentage rate of the seller. And don't be discouraged about 1 or 2 negative feedback of the seller. It's common to see those. I bought alot of stuff from ebay and wasn't dissappointed we anything I received.

alright thanks guys

If they have thousands of positive transations you can feel safe. If they any negative or little feedback I usually will not buy without a couple emails back and forth or even a phone call.

paying with paypal is also a heck of a lot safer if you ever have problems.

i have had two transactions where the seller's failed to send the item and paypal refunded me both times

I love ebay! haha, but a lot of their stuff is counterfeit haha.

But most of the parts on my car are from Ebay. i even bought my celica off ebay hahaha.

90% of my parts come from ebay...and none of them broke on me..(thank god)....never had a bad experience with them...EXCEPT for body parts..DONT GET BODY KITS FROM EBAY!!!!

[kriz45]

does that include JDM lights?

[MaskedMan]

well JDM lights are JDM lights nomatter who you buy them from, well unless they lied about it or whatever. But the problem with body kits is that depending on who you order it from, they either Fit good, require some modification to fit, or require A LOT of modification to fit (like mine ) But Jdm tails on Ebay should be fine.

[j0e_p3t]

basically the less money you spend on a body kit, the more you're gonna spend on modifying them to fit properly. i would stay away from cheap body kits, coil overs, brake rotors, and anything else that cost like 99 cents.
