So I had a mishap of my own doing that compromised my front core support. On eBay there are some more inexpensive reproduction ones. Has anyone had experience with them. Are they terrible when it comes to lining things up?

They're usually ok to use, if this was a brand new chassis then I would be a little hesitant but on a 15 year old vehicle all the bugs are usually worked out.

It's a VERY commonly replaced item due to the damage they sustain in frontal collisions, aftermarket usually makes a good replacement.
