Thanks for stepping up to add some light to this very controvertial issue. Its pretty clear with side by side pictures along with your explanations that you do indeed get what you pay for. I'm always looking for a good deal but but not to the extent of sacrificing quality. Maybe they don't make much difference in performance but the OBX look like crap to me.
I could not bolt those onto my car, hard to believe I was actually considering them but after seeing and reading this the answer is NOT!
