Thier stuff is not genuine, some things need a bit of jigging about to fit right, but there is no reason not to buy off them for those prices!

GET THE GENUINE VAUX arches..
I had copies before on green corsa and they were terrible, really thin, could virtually see screw heads through them and when really hot and sunny they warped and anywhere away from the clips was bowed out from bodywork, I binned them and bougfht genuine GM ones....
they were about that price too
I would not recommend copies at ALL

Had a wing and front arch off them, the wing was pretty good but the arch wasnt as good at all as genuine. None of its as good as GM.
