Last time I was at a shop parts they source from their "sources", though gotten at a lower price originally, are still marked up by the shop itself in the invoice of work done, almost always coming out more expensive than if you brought the part yourself.

If you know the part you need and can bring it yourself instead of using the bodyshop for both work and as your parts vendor, it saves you $$$. There is no other reason
