They first decide if the damage is repairable, next step is to find used OEM, next step is new aftermarket parts, but this is why their rates are so cheap. They also gurantee the aftermarket parts so if there are any problems, they will pay to have it fixed. Also, if the aftermarket doesn't fit, the shop will write a suplement and they will get new OEM parts. Supposedly Honda sells part of their OEM parts with an aftermarket label. I forget which company Geico uses, but they have some kind of certification and distribute all automotive parts, so its not like ordering fenders from JC Whitney, headlights from another company etc
