How can I tell if they are genuine Toyota parts?

My '09 Camry got smashed into a couple of weeks ago %26amp; has been in the body shop ever since. The guy said he has had to replace almost all of the driver's side pieces including a uni body piece. He also said he is using genuine Toyota parts, but how can I tell if they really are? The repair is already up to 7k.How can I tell if they are genuine Toyota parts?You probably don't have to worry about it. 99% of body shops are honest and it's not worth it to lie to you.



If you're paying for it, tell him that you'd like copies of the invoices from the Toyota dealership for your records. It's not in your best interest at this point to be accusatory, so make sure you tell him that you just want to have complete records of the repair. How can I tell if they are genuine Toyota parts?parts should be stamped toyota, ask to see the invoices that say where they got the parts..How can I tell if they are genuine Toyota parts?I think you should be more concerned of him stealing your new parts and putting old camry parts in it lolHow can I tell if they are genuine Toyota parts?
You can check the body shop with Toyota Part Retailers Database.. This Database has every part retailer listed.. If the bodyshop is listed in the database you can be sure that it is legit.. If they are not in the list most probably the parts are not original..
