anyone use DISCOUNT BODY PARTS
i am looking at some front end body parts for my 2000 mercedes e320. my wife did some damage to the front then my daughter finished it off with a deer.
it has 170k miles on it and i dont really want to put top quality hi $$ parts back on it with a chance of it being wrecked again on due to the hi mileage, but....i dont want subpar partgs that wont fit. the bumper cover at "benzparts for less" is $229, discount is $85. thats a BIG difference. either benz parts is screwing me or discount has a great price or they are screwing me with a subpar parts at a vary low $$. the headlights. i can get both headlight asssy's at discount for the price of one at bemz parts. anyone use discount parts or would you even use them?

I have seen mostly mechanical stuff and some body / trim stuff. You'd be astonished at the quality (or lack of) difference. Pay to play for good quality parts- just that simple

You know, if you watching the dough, it's pretty hard to go wrong with used OEM body parts. Sometimes you get a stroke of good luck and can find them in the same color as your car.
