Certification - CAPA / NSF
At present time the below organization certify replacement (aftermarket) parts:
- Certified Automotive Parts Association (CAPA)
- NSF International
These organizations test and certify the quality of parts used for auto body repair. They have rigorous part testing to ensure each and every part is suitable to use on your car. Every certified part must pass a long list of tests (too many to list), some of which include the following:
- Material composition
- Mechanical properties
- Physical Fit
- Appearance / Finish
Unfortunately, not all manufacturing companies have their parts certified by CAPA or NSF. As a result, Pro Body Parts carefully researches and inspects non-certified parts to ensure they contain a comparable degree of quality and craftsmanship, thereby ensuring a consistent level of quality and reliability in parts.
