%fit for exterior aerodynamics mods

JZBDCT · 12-08-2011, 06:23 PM

Hello everyone

I wanted to ask how you guys rate %Fit. I know this sounds real stupid. But I want to ask how you rate the fit on aftermarket panels. For example, i just picked up a JL-Motoring CSL style 1x1 carbon fiber trunk lid and after doing the reputable forum search, people rate it as 80% fit. I'm also surprised that Vorsteiner lids get the same rating. I'm curious if they're all so/so fits, then why the price difference?

How do you guys rate fit? What factors contribute to your decision to buying one brand over the other.

And yes I know there's no CSL authentic lid. And all the companies are technically "replicas".

Can anybody tell me why that trunk is sooooo much cheaper than the Vorsteiner trunk? How does this trunk compare to the Vorsteiner?
