Rexspeed Vs Oem Vortex Generator

Please post up pictures of Rexspeed vortex generator.

And please give opinion what you think of the rexspeed vortex generator versus the OEM.

Is the paint quality the same on the Rexpeed as it is on the OEM?

And does it look OEM!?

I think most people are going to vote rexspeed. From what I have read fitment is top notch and for the price there is no reason to go OEM. I bought one off of ebay and had good luck with it. I cannot remember the username but there have been many threads on this topic so with a little effort im sure you would be able to dig it up.

Rexpeed is molded off the OEM. Rexpeed is cheaper. End of story.

I wouldn't say end of story, I've seen a lot of people on here debate it. I think this is a good thread and I'm interested to see the results from it.

But they look the same, serve the same purpose, and Rexpeed is cheaper.

OEM is just for OEM cars. I like my car modified. Rexpeed FTW! Just got my CF IX front lip from them in the mail last week as well.

heres the way i see it. i dont feel like an evo looks like an evo without a vg. i think they all should have came with one cuz they'r badass. who cares if it is the EXACT same thing as oem or if the fins are 2mm farther apart. all that matters is that you have that nice spiky thing evos are known for

and i still cant believe i didnt order mine yet lol
