nope venus is legit. got my front end there with OEM honda headlights and an OEM type R lip. great prices and legit parts. Ron is the man.

and yea he does straight up tell u about fake parts, like he does have fake CTR headlights and lips and stuff, but he will tell u and give u prices for the fake parts and real parts, and i made sure to get the real ****.

Its 900 plus tax. unless he didn't charge that guy tax. Mine came out to ~975 with the lip. The guy seems cool and everything, only thing I didn't like was that he tried to rush me when I was picking my parts. I was looking for the ones with the least dents, but he seemed a bit inpatient.

yea but they offer peace of mind as far as condition, authenticity, etc.

venus sounds like the way to go if you're price conscious

venus is legit i bought a full sheet metal oem front from them for 900 the reason its 900 is because it dosnt include the lip.....and the lip alone is pricey....i paid about a good 250 for my oem lip used....i would recomend buying a lip if its avil...

All you have to do to get the front for $900 flat, is give him an out-of-state address without sale tax. For instance, when I bought my H swap he wanted $1500+ tax, my total would have been $1620.xx but I gave him my grandama's address from Nevada and walk out with my swap for $1500. When he doesn't charge tax he keeps all the money and doesn't have to deal with filing taxes. FYI State with no sale tax are: Oregon and Nevada

Ive been goin to venus auto for a long time.....two front ends, tail lights, markers, headlights, bumpers.....good price and you can pick out ur parts......usually he's down to drop the price for damaged body parts- which is cool if you know how to fix em

cool, are all the parts organized? like they keep all the hoods in one spot and all the bumpers in one spot/ radiator supports etc etc

reason i ask is that way its easier to pick which ones to get
