just get the real cwest, u wont be dissapointed with the real one. ive always found replicas regretful, no matter how close of a match it is to the real thing. you can always tell. its like real and fake prada. when u wear it, ull know the difference...but maybe thats just me? anyways i saw jeff's(500whp.com) c-west front bumper before he put it on and it is a nice peice.

yeah...street concept is great quality, but a replica is still a replica. I would just go for the real deal...like he said, you already spent 30,000+ on your car. But its your car, do whatever you want. I got a talking to from a few guys from High End (Team Auto Concept) and they really set me straight about replicas. Some company goes through all the hard work to design a nice product, and some other company just rips them by making a copy of it. I don't know what everyone thinks of that, but I know I won't be buying any replica anythings. just my .02 though.

The cwest kit looks good either way you go.

i would say the same too as well ... but if they come out with the Poly Kit .. which is stronger and more durable than orginial .. then i would get the replica poly kit instead of the real deal ...

C-West has a Poly option. Yeah, go with the real deal. I HATE Street concepts for knocking every single exterior piece that comes outta Japan. Just thieves in my opinion. Just take the time to save up for the real deal. Your pretty much guaranteed excellent fitment. Who wants to get the knockoff that "might" fit ok.

hmm... im in the same boat. I was going to get the Cwest bumper and then started looking at the Gialla bumper, now I like both. With the money im spending on the real ones I was thinking of getting both Gialla and Cwest knockoffs. swap them back and forth once a month. Now you guys got me thinking again. lol

I would go for the real deal. C-West goes thru all the time, money and effort to design a quality part and them somone just knocks it off sells it for half as much. Think if it was your company.

well, think of it this way too .... you would know you have a knock off, if it doesn't bother you to wear a folex and fucci ... then by all means ... its totally up to you and do you really care what others think .. its your car, do as you like .. but if you care of what others think and such .. then save up and buy the real deal .. just my .02 cents
