CSL Replica or OEM fronts? Thoughts?

Bruck · 12-19-2008, 06:58 PM

I am worried that the replicas may not look exactly like the OEM's (they can't right?) Has anyone ever put them side by side.

I'm trying to figure out which is a better decision.

I would go with the replicas, the OEMs are not the correct offset for your car.

I thought the fronts were right, it was the rears that didn't fit
