CarParts.com sells auto parts online, from headlights and mirrors to body panels, wheels, tools and powersports parts, plus the CarParts Euro and JC Whitney performance lines.
The biggest lever on price is the price match, which can apply even after you've bought the part, though it won't combine with any other promotion.
CarParts.com, Inc. runs the store and stocks its own labels next to outside brands; the brand list highlights SureStop, DriveMotive, TrueDrive and Evan Fischer as well as AC Delco. Shoppers add a vehicle by year, make, model or VIN, and the site uses that selection to back its guaranteed-fit promise. Commonly shopped part types include bumper covers, grille assemblies, radiators, brake disc and pad kits, and shocks and struts.
For do-it-yourself repairs, the site publishes a blog called In the Garage, plus Auto Repair 101 articles, how-to guides and an OBD-II trouble code reference. A CarParts+ Gold membership adds 3x points per $1, roadside assistance and VIP support for members.
