Not to say that the parts are all high quality, but it looks like this china manufactured part fits and looks fine.

People should understand that the Chinese entering the market is usually a good thing. It will bring the price of those $110 painted side markers down eventually. Think about it -- do the sellers really deserve to make such high margins for buying the core OEM part and painting over it? These are commodities! |
There is a rampant band of intelligencia on here who think that paying massively inflated prices is "prestigious".
I love that these geniuses call well-made products like these: "chinese knock offs" but apparently
RKP carbon diffusers,
RW carbon M4 spoilers and
Mode Carbon M3 spoilers are "tuner products"...
Absolutely laughable
Apparently, if you spend a ton on marketing, making pretty videos, taking lovely photos and posting well-written marketing prose on the forums, means you can put a 4000% mark up on your products and get praised for it, but selling the EXACT SAME PRODUCT for 20% mark up gets you labelled a "knock off"
