Quality of parts?

Anyone ever bought from this ebay store before?-
http://stores.ebay.com/meg-lite

Im looking at possibly purchasing the side skirts above and was wondering if anyone knew of their quality? Also how big a deal would not having mounting tabs on these be? Would a shop be able to fab something up or would it a big pain to get them mounted correctly?

With so many proven vendors providing quality parts why take a chance.Save a few more bucks and save your self from substandard parts.Try to fit parts gets labor cost higher than quality parts.

I have to agree, especially when it comes to an off-branded body part as the ad even states that you will need to expect to perform some modifications to make it fit correctly. If it were for a name brand part, that is a different story.

Also remember, it may be difficult to find the Foose Stallion parts because the molds were sold, as the auction states.

Also keep in mind these are fiberglass with most others being polyurethane. The fiberglass (this thin) is easier to crack and break should something hit it.
