Re: [T3] Skippy the sb & finding parts


On thesamba you can find feedback on buyers and
sellers, theirs a button on the ad.  Most people on
there are trustworthy, I've had only good experience
thus far, but I have read some horor stories.  Just
make sure to check and see if they have any feedback
beforehand.  
Also, every seal I have bought from Cip1 was crap,
they all took no less than 6 months too crack.  Plus
the "German" door seal kit they sell is actually just
a German door seal (Which is WAY to thick) and the
rest of the stuff in the kit is Brazilian.  All the
seals I've gotten from ISP and WCM are in great shape
though.
