Icon2 Experience with CAPA-Certified versus non-CAPA

All, how are you doing? I am looking to replace some body panels/parts on my 2002 EP3 and was wondering if someone on HT can shed some light for me. I have been browsing websites such as carpartswholesale.com and discountbodyparts.com looking for some replacement OE-quality fenders and hoods. Obviously buying direct from Honda cost an arm and leg, so I have scratched that idea unless it is a last resort.

For any of the guys/gals out there that may have done body work, are there any major concerns of buying fenders/hoods that are not CAPA-Certified? The saying you get what you pay for has crossed my mind many times. But before I make a purchase, I just wanted to get some feedback on people who may have already been through this process.

Thank you for any help that you can provide.

Moderator: If you feel this should be in the Body and Paint section, please move it. I did not think about it before I posted. Sorry.
