Each part has a story from the road behind that is as unique as you and I. While cosmetic condition is subjective, we try our best to explain how we classify each window. All windows (with the exception of refurbished) will need new gaskets, spacers, seals as they are mostly all over 20 years old. Some of the common cosmetic flaws, common to a part of this period can include: small amounts of corrosion (for aluminum, likely due to steel hardware touching the aluminum), slight bends and dings, rogue rivets or rivet holes. For further clarification ,check out our explanation of condition below. Each of these items is backed by our 14 day return policy if you’re unsatisfied.
