RW Carbon vs. BMW performance side skirts

Hey guys, I'm looking to pick up a set of side skirts, but I'm curious to know if there is a difference between the RW Carbon version vs. the BMW performance side skirts. I posted pictures below. It seems like there could be a bit of a sharper cut and deeper opening on the RW, but that could just be lighting and picture angle. What do you guys think?

I would imagine it's the same. Their performance diffuser is identical.

Thank you, I figured as much, but the brighter picture just makes them look better.

I was looking into getting their version of the BMW performance spoiler. Though I haven't seen anyone that has it for the 1 series. Their other reviews seem to be good.

The car in the brighter picture also has the Performance front bumper and a front lip and they add to the look of the side skirts and the car overall IMO.

agreed, it does add to the overall look. I really like how the side skirts straighten out that dip and make it more of an even line.

I have it. Fitment is almost perfect. Worth the price imo.
