Default Greddy side skirts vs Sarona side skirts

I'm hoping that someone will be able to help me out with a question I have. I ordered Greddy side skirts from bodykits.com and a few days later I am contacted to see if I would go with the Sarona side skirts and save $400. I have never seen the Sarona side skirts in person and have no idea how the fitment is. From pictures they look almost the same, but I am extremely hesitant. Has anyone installed the Sarona's on their car? If so, how is the quality/fitment?

Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

like any cheap replica you risk poor fitment or hours and hours of labor to make them fit close to decent. I assume they are asking if you'd take those because the greddy ones are likely backordered or out of stock with no real eta.

the only company I'd put replica bits on for a Z car would be from shine auto, myself.

^^^ This. +1 for Shine Auto as high-quality reps.



Of course Sarona's stock photo for anything is going to look perfect... That's like seeing a McDonald's commercial for McDoubles and expecting them to look exactly like that when you buy them for 99 cents...

Don't settle. You get what you pay for.

Yeah I think the Greddy sides are discontinued, I asked around and everywhere I did told me so. I have heard that they fit perfect, if you can get them you should.

^ not only discontinued but if you do find a greddy, usually comes in a whole kit.

Thanks, I appreciate the responses. I'm going to stick with the Greddy side skirts. Hopefully they can still deliver...I had no idea they had been discontinued.

Well low & behold the Greddy side skirts are on backorder (I'm assuming indefinitely). Back to the drawing board! Thanks again for the responses.
