Default Body Kits: Replica vs. Real ???

Other than the obvious, is there a difference in quality?? I'm thinking about getting the INGS LXS sport body kit. I'd like to know because the replica's are so much cheaper in price. I'm wondering is the quality of a replica the same, meaning cheaper in quality??

For me, I know that my kit is not going to last as long due to the driving I do. I could buy another one without spending much.

The kit I have (Esprit) was made out of chopped fiber. It was kind of fair cause the bodyshop worker had lots of work to do. When I recieved it, there were many pinholes, small cracks, and was thicker at different places. They did a good job in repairing. So far after 8 months, its holding up well after I scraped, hit a few things.

I would suggest, find the place where you are going to get the replica. Then see what other forum members have to say who bought the kit from the same place.

good luck!
