fitment looks good to me and I woulnd't be able to tell if it's authentic or replica.

in my personal opinion, quality > fitment > brand.

thanks bro. Just posted pics cause a few members asked. Not to discuss authenticity. Looks fine to me. Just want to add the emblem holder one day. My wife thinks it cheapens the look of the car. I told her to make me a sammich!

looks like its gonna be next to impossible to find the emblem holder. All well if i get sick of it ill just throw on the oem grill, and black out the surround and L. Im happy for now. and maybe ill get luck and find a holder some how some way!
