In subjective matters, one person's concerns are no less valid than anothers. In objective matters, it's important to keep in mind relativity (i.e. what may be worth it to you, may not be to someone else).

I understand. I was just giving my opinion on the situation. I see a lot of people around here going cheap when it comes to large exterior pieces on their car (body kits, spoilers, wheels, etc.) Most of the time it ends up looking horrible (again, my opinion). I didn't mean to ruffle anyone's feathers.

I agree, but that doesn't mean a 3rd party part wouldn't be a high quality piece or have great fitment. Heck, 99.9% of the parts folks on this forum put on their cars are aftermarket, and with the exception of a couple of hoods, I haven't heard a lot of complaints about fitment.

That is also why I wouldn't buy any of these sight unseen without some type of return policy.

Still looks pretty dang sketch since they haven't shown their own product and are having a group buy... Only other louvers being posted on their site. Ugh.
The half louver they have looks kind of nice.. but seems really sketchy that they are showing the trd louvers in their group buy pictures.. I'm going to be ordering the TRD one as soon as income tax comes in.
