Every part we inventory gets graded on the standard the recycling industry uses, so "good condition" means something specific instead of whatever the seller feels like.
- Grade A+ — as clean as used gets: little to no recorded damage, ready to bolt on.
- Grade A — the best of what's out there. Low mileage for its age, minimal wear or damage.
- Grade B — average for its age and mileage. The workhorse grade; most parts land here and most people are happy with them.
- Grade C — higher mileage or visible wear/damage. Priced accordingly. Fine for a part that doesn't have to be pretty.
- Grade X — the donor vehicle's mileage is unknown. The part is graded by its photos and damage code instead — read both closely.
Grade isn't the whole story
Mileage matters most on engines and transmissions. On a door or a bumper, damage codes matter more than miles. We list both, and we photograph the actual part — if there's a dent, you'll see the dent. Body parts also carry an industry-standard ARA damage code — here's how to read it.
What the warranty covers
Every part carries our 3-month warranty. If a part fails within that window, contact us and we'll make it right. That applies to every grade — a C-grade part still has to work.
