They're about 5 mins from where I work in a garage and we use them a lot, theyre stuff is good. I've just renewed all kinds on my car from then they're good and easy to deal with.

I think it depends what your buying from them, some things I've bought have been great and others I've ended up going to the dealer for the geniune parts because there's werent up to much, but on the whole I think there O.K

i put n/s front wing on my car from gsf and it fits and looks ok but needs a little fettle at the top just in front of the door as it goes up the a post to look spot on.i have never had any problems with general service parts either and radiators etc,but the o/s and n/s grilles are poor

I bought a wing from them and it doesnt fit well at all - phone an independant dealer and get a second hand one - it'll probably work out cheaper too!

I think M8 you get what you pay for aftermarket panels usually need some work to make them fit I bought a set of rear arches and had to work them to get the bumper and sill kit to fit again these parts are cheap and if you have the time and skill you can make them fit just like the originals but you need to know what you are doing to match up trim lines etc as usually these will be off and need work to make perfect.
Cheap panels are just that, you get what you pay for but if you can live with it being usually mm out then I can say they are the cheaper option
Good Luck
There are other panel makers/suppliers out there and prices are usually competetive try Tradepanels direct and compare prices as the cheaper you can get them the better you will feel when you need to work them to fit
