Do you guys trust buying parts on Ebay
I just recently picked up a 2013 E and i'm almost done with all my mods. I was planning on purchasing some clear side markets on Ebay but feeling a little skeptical that it will not fit properly. I'm also looking to buy a painted Roof Spoiler from ebay as well. Have anyone had any experience purchasing from vendors on Ebay for these parts? I will post pics once my car is completely finished. I'm about 2 weeks in and have alot of worked done already. Any help would be great!

i buy stuff from ebay for years and most important thing you need to look at is the seller's ratings. i did have some problems here and there but mostly resolved in a timely manner. i'm happy with my purchases.

I have bought many items and have been satisfied with them. As BM2BZ nicely said, ratings are 1st to do on my list rather than sellers' price
