Lightbulb Best websites to order parts from

Hi everyone,
I joined Clublexus very recently, after having bought my first Lexus. It's a 2007 GS 430, and replaces my beloved 2005 Mustang GT. Yes, they're cars from two different worlds, but I love them both.

I live in the UAE, and wanted to order rotors (Centric) from the parts websites in the US. I know they don't ship here, so I am having them shipped to a friend there, who will carry them with him when he comes to Dubai in November. So, I want to know the most trusted, reliable websites, which sell for good prices as well, because my friend is clueless about cars, and I don't want to end up with the wrong parts, cause then there would virtually be no way to have them returned. I have heard of partsgeek and fap99. What do you think of them? Also, since amazon is a generic site, can I be sure that they will send the RIGHT part if I order from them?

Thanks a lot for your help guys!

P.S. Haven't had the chance to post pictures on the official roll call yet, will do so once I snap some good ones
