Just remember, you get what you pay for.

Yea, allot of things you have to watch out for cheap parts. I generally keep in mind that if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Another thing that helps is looking at the users feedback and reading the comments left. I normally won't buy from somebody with less than 95% positive feedback reviews. Read the negative feedbacks and see what they had problems with.

If you don't mind paying a little more for quality stuff, I'd recommend
Protege Garage
Corksport
Street Unit
High Boost
Mental Addiction

Another thing... DO YOUR HOMEWORK!

Not always. Many times you just pay for the name.

Just be careful who you buy it from. Sometimes it is worth paying a little more for a good brand and a warrenty, especially for higher ticket items.

Of course.

This isn't the most ethical industry out there and some of the "name brand" companies are a total pain to deal with. I won't name names, but there's many times gray areas in warranties.
