For body kits, you're only safe with OEM. There's a reason those kits are so much cheaper. The fitment is usually very, very bad, regardless of the 99% fitment they advertise.

go with oem, you're mostly likely going to regret the aftermarket reps..just get a price from ltbmw

Duraflex are the mismatched unpainted flimsy pieces you see on like old civics, eclipses, etc that just flap back and forth when they drive on the freeway. I'm sure there are higher quality ones but they remind me of those lol. Go with oem material and a lot of venders here use the oem pp material as well. or go tischer and get the actual oem parts.
