Factory strips vs aftermarket

Getting ready to place an order form my car and noticed that some of you opted to have your strips added from a paint shop rather then from the factory. Are the paint shop installed better quality, cheaper or is there some other reason for your decision. Thanks in advance for your opinion.

I answered your other thread, but...OEM stripes are vinyl (aka stickers) and a paint shop is well paint. Vinyl stripes will fade and tear over time, hence why some people get the stripes painted on
