And? The manufacturers they are doing work for have quality standards.

The majority of these aftermarket headlights, side markers, and tail lights are junk.

Basically they are able to make what you want, as long as you are willing to pay for it. Pretty much how it is with stuff made in taiwan or china.

Basically, if you pay for low-quality with loose build tolerances....you'll get a cheap product

There is a huge profit margin to be had with these aftermarket headlights. I'm sure they'll be more than happy to give you a replacement to keep their business reputation.

serisouly? you work for Spyder company or what??? their product quality is really crap as far as compare to Toms and BuddyClub.

With Chinese companies I've seen people pay the extra for high quality with tight tolerances, get excellent samples, but then the main shipment comes and it's all crap.
Harder to return a 40 foot container of merchandise to China.

I thought we were talking about headlights. Please list other aftermarket headlight companies that have a better and more expensive product than Spyder. Other than OEM for the FRS/BRZ currently .
