Some of the stuff CIP1.com sells is junk,  other stuff is good
quality.   It's truly hit or miss with these guys.....I often think
their name should be "Chinese Import Parts".

Make sure you can return items you don't like after you inspect them.

A few genuine body skins are still available from the dealer, perhaps
you can find a dealer that does discounted mail order like
http://www.1stvwparts.com/tollfree.html   The dealer stuff will be
very good quality.
