OEM TAKE-OFF

Body parts made by or for the original vehicle manufacturer, which were "taken off" at the factory due to a quality imperfection or never installed due to excess inventory. Like "Factory Seconds" or "Blems" you might find in an outlet mall clothing store, these parts are almost "good as new" but may not be perfect (these parts are typically offered for applications for which no aftermarket parts exist).
