There's nothing wrong with wanting quality and wanting to save money. OP go online & search for the site that fits yours needs but like someone already said there are plenty of sites to choose from. It all depends on what manufacturer you are trying to get the parts for.

No, if you want OEM go to any one of a myriad of aftermarket dealers. If you want OE go to a dealer. That said, not all dealers are created equal. I can get the same part shipped to me from a BMW dealer in Ohio for $100 that Casey BMW would want $200+ for.

That is going to depend a lot on the kind of car you have, assuming you are looking for OEM original parts and not aftermarket. For instance, for my 300ZX I get them from www.courtesyparts.com, but that isn't going to do a Honda/Toyota/any other brand owner any good.

Another tip. Learn about your car. I have a Z32 so I use Z1 Motorsports and Concept Z performance a lot. There is also a Z junkyard in Chesapeake. The guy is real shady and kind of a tool so I don't like to deal with him but I've gotten pieces even Z1 doesn't have. This all doesn't help anybody without a Z but there are similar sites/places/forums for many other cars. Use them.
