understands about as much about AM parts as do you because they have been fed the same company lines of crap you have been swallowing for years.

Perhaps he or she was sold a bill of goods that they were "the same as" OE - that folks like me are just full of it and all we want is the money. Sounds familiar? Right?

That BS is something many folks fall for - So don't blame yourself - It happens all the time. Here's a little secret Gill - Repairers can make WAY more money on the AM parts than OE. Yup, it's true due to discount structures and sale prices - part for part - in some cases, I'm talking $100 more actual dollars in profit for each hood, fender or bumper cover.

Crazy that these folks would still want to do the right thing isn't it? They should shut up and make their money the old fashioned way - right? But they don't - instead they persist. Because the parts are not the same Gill.

By the way - the truck fender - that's not aftermarket. That is used OE. That is also *not* what the suit is about.
