Anybody ever heard of Parts Geek

Has anybody ever ordered parts from Parts Geek before? They had some good prices on some stuff I wanted to order but I've never heard of them before and It makes me nervous to lay out a lot of money like that. If anybody has I'd appreciate whatever feedback you can offer, thank you, Shiloh.

I've heard of them but never used them. What are you looking to get? I've found that Rock Auto consistently has by far the lowest prices and super quick shipping. I've pretty much exclusively used Rock Auto for the past few years

i did a quick search, some people said theyre excellent while some said they received the wrong part and the company was extremely untimely with dealing with it. i would say stay away from them

i would say Rock Auto or Ebay are a better choice

Thanks guys for your post, I'll try Rock Auto just to be safe. I'm doing quite a bit this spring/summer- full suspension-probably lowering, full exhaust- headers back- even though muffler is new I want HO muffler, headlight conversion to projectors, replacing emissions hoses/any heater hosing, re insulating any electrical wiring possible, maybe changing plush interior to black leather then Stillen body kit and new paint. That's it just a little bit of stuff.
I really appreciate your responses and this this forum is an excellent place to brainstorm ideas. I have about 3 or 4 guys in my circle that I can trust for technical info, so this site really helps, thanks, Shiloh.

Rockauto didnt seem to have much aftermarket exhausts or intakes, more OEM. Any good aftermarket sites?

Parts Geek Rules!

I've used parts geek for a bunch of stuff for my '92 SE and my '97 SE, and they are a kick *** company. Super fast shipping, next day in most cases. They had cheaper prices than Rock Auto for most stuff, but you really can't go wrong with either place.

Just my 2 cents

Don't forget to look around on ebay if your just trying to replace worn parts.


I purchased to stainless steel rotors and a pair of ceramic breaks along with shipping all for 70$.The stuff from rockauto would have cost me 85$ at the cheapest, also look around.
