Rinse the wheels and tires with the hose. Using a sponge, rag, or wheel detailing brushes scrub away the dirt and grime that are covering the wheels.

Do not underestimate the quality and power of recycled parts. There are a lot of recyclers around compared to what you originally thought. In North America alone, there are over 4 million cars being recycled each year. Almost always, the prices of recycled parts are very cost-effective that new parts are finding them hard to compete. Parts obtained particularly from recycling yards are very cheap because most car insurers automatically send-off their used cars directly to the recyclers as it will cost them much less.

Put yourself in someone else’s shoes and ask yourself ‘would you buy your car?’. Windshields are a value killer. If there is a crack in the windshield, no matter how small it is, you have to figure the price of a new windshield will be deducted from your trade-in price.

Buy from the right auto parts store. If you aren’t in the know it’s quite difficult to spot a good store from a bad one. A good auto parts store will clearly display their contact details as well as displaying details about their stock. They should display which models they supply stock for and everything should be priced. The typical worker should know the stock inside and out and should know exactly what you need.
There is always a risk factor when buying anything used. You don’t want to buy a part only to have it not work properly. It’s important to feel comfortable knowing that there is a clear return/exchange policy and some kind of warranty. Have a firm understanding of the warrantee before making a purchase. You don’t want to get scammed because you didn’t read the fine print. If they don’t even offer a warranty, find a different place that will.
