Replica if you plan on slamming the car, that way you won't smash/crack the expensive one. Replicas are usually urethane so they just scrape
True, true. I just hope the fitment is on point if I go with the replica though haha.


I have one and I'd probably say that fitment is about 8/10. I just bought double sided tape I am going to put on due to a few small gaps. The only thing is that you won't get the OEM weather stripping but I hear you can buy that now too

you can buy 1/4 in weatherstripping with adhesive back from wal mart for like $5.
they have white, grey, and black.

i cant imagine OEM weatherstripping being any different aside from the price.

i would get replica only because i live around hills and my car is a bit lowered.
i had an oem lip to begin with the passenger side cracked cause my lip is always kissing the ground.

Hate to bring this back up but how do you know if the lip is real or fake?

Apart from the very obvious quality difference, the real one has tape sections on the back side.
