Aftermarket Body Panels..damn deer

[SteveR6]

So I hit a deer two nights ago, I swear my car just doesn't like me and doesn't want to be driven. Anyway I need a fender, headlight, and bumper which I have found on Ebay. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this stuff as I'm not trying to get these things and then have them not line up properly.

That fender and bumper come from Pershing Auto Body, the headlight from Car Parts Wholesale. Car parts wholesale also has the bumper and fender, but the fender says without side air dam & turbo, CAPA certified part what the hell does that mean? The Pershing fender says without side air dam as well now that I look at it. What is a side air dam?? The links are below.

Some of the aftermarket OEM style bumpers have a triangle where the mitsubishi symbol is.. so If your picky you may want to get it shaved..

Man good call, one of those fenders has the inlay for the logo and the other doesn't. Hmm.....

I also heard that some auctions show a picture with out the triangle, but they get sent one with it.. so double check when/if you order. BUT also check out the clasifieds on here and a more local board (if there is one) for a stock bumper. I Got my oem bumper from some one who was on a local dsm forum.

I'm just concerned that the fit won't be perfect and then I'm stuck wih the damn thing.

From what I have heard they fit realy well (the bumper atleast) From some picture they fit better then my OEM bumper (I have massive haps under my headlights.. i dont know if its form my bumper or ebay lights)
But if you do a search here on ebay bumpers im sure you will find more threads of happy customers then complainers.
