Do you guys buy parts from ebay for your lexus? Like what and what should you not buy from ebay? Just to give me and maybe other new people safer to shop on ebay without disappointments.

 

depend on what you buy and who sell it

 

I bought LOTS of parts off of eBay. I know what to look for though. Please explain what you're looking for and we might be able to help.

 

I got lower balljoints, upper control arms, and sway bar links from ebay; and so far they're fine, also bought an used alternator from a salvage yard through ebay and it's still holding up.

 

I've bought HID conversion kit, thermostat, water pump, power steering pump, wiper blades, brake pads, cross drilled rotors, pioneer head unit, HD radio module, amplifier, window regulator(s).

Never had a problem. I choose sellers with at least 97% positive feedback and over 500 feedbacks received. I regularly check eBay and ClubLexus for parts.

 

Like what do you guys stay away from? Do you guys buy those full body kits on ebay? Is it worth going cheap on them?

 

The body kits are ugly anyways

 

Some are ugly, Some are nice. The one's ive seen on ebay, I don't really like em haha. I'm trying to grab a lip/sideskirts/maybe spoiler just to give me that "VIP" look. @Carfreak70 what do you usually look for at ebay?

 

I don't really look for anything in particular. I have bought a bunch of crap on there though. In the past month I have bought...
Boost gauge
AEM wideband
A few stickers
LED bulbs for my cluster
Aristo spoiler
Steering wheel hub
I also bought some coilovers but he ended up refunding my money (IDK what happened)


From the start of my build, I have bought
Radiator
Intercooler kit
Basically everything man. You can't beat the prices.

They have some skirts on ther right now. Search JZS147

 

@Carfreak thanks for the tip and thanks for giving me a person to look for. At least i got an idea.

 

Does an aristo spoiler fit on a regular lexus gs300 spoiler? or do i have to do the whole conversion? Also, Can i just change the tail lights and reflector or change the whole trunk?

 

The 3pc spoiler does not just stick on. There are about 12 10mm bolts that hold it on, and requires drilling holes in the trunk and quarter panels...just did it myself. It sucked!

You can change the tail light assembly. I believe it is 4 or 5 10mm bolts. Remove carpet from under trunk and you will see them.

 

So I don't have to change the whole trunk right? And I can put on an aristo spoiler or any spoiler to make my car look more VIP, I just need to drill holes and it'll fit on the stock trunk?

 

That is correct

 

Okay thanks, do you have any suggestions or ideas of where I can find a good spoiler off of eBay?
