Just do not get duraflex(fiberglass) because you or the body shop will need to spend 5+ hours per piece finishing it for paint(unless that's what you are into) they are about half the price if you can do your own sweat equity. As far as where to order I just get my stuff off ebay and can't recommend a company.

Shine Auto Project, KBD, Outcast Garage, VIS, Seibon, etc. It's really hit or miss, though, depending on what you're getting.

If you're looking for excellent fitment and authentic parts, be prepared to shell out some money.

Shine is best of both worlds, if not authentic (if you can get them) everything that isn't a performance part for these cars is being discontinued.

Amen to that. I lucked out and got some authentic chargespeed bottom line pieces off of craigslist when people were still using that instead of FB marketplace. Fitment is great. I haven't seen the same set come up after that.

All the Chargespeed CF stuff is made to order so you can still get it but it's expensive. That being said I could see them being phased out. Last I talked to shine about the diffusers they said it was about a 6 month wait lol.
