I'm assuming you are using STI style kit. How is the fitment?

Thanks. I'm really on the fence between this and OEM one.
OEM will cost extra $350. I'm not sure if I should spend that extra to play.
How is the quality? Did you buy ABS or PU? So just to make sure again, no any single gaps between fitment?

The only issue we had was with the tape placement (install issue, i put the tape on too high on one side to tray and draw the kit in to the body a bit, not the tape sticks out). I've got new/better tape to go on now which will help it form to the body a bit better.

Honestly I'm not sure what the material is, but I've had them on about a month now, car's been outside the entire time and i haven't seen any issues.

For an extra $350 I don't think it's worth it. Just be diligent on the install. i did mine the same day I did coilovers and was a bit careless at the end of the day.

The lip was a bit after the kit, plus I'm in Canada so that delayed shipping. Took about 1.5-2 weeks I think.
