Razzi vs Duraflex Racer Body Kits

So I've been looking at some different GFX/body kit packages and I've narrowed it down to these two: Razzi and Duraflex Racer.

The price is very close but I was wondering what some others thought, or if anyone had any good or bad experiences with either. This car is my DD so I was wondering how they hold up.

Razzi:

Duraflex Racer:




Best photos I could come up with here.



The Duraflex is a little cheaper but I don't know how that rear would look painted AGM...

A little closer look and the front lips looks almost identical, same goes for skirts???

Wow, looks like these kits are the same thing. Wonder why the price difference on CarID. The V6 is identical
Different material maybe

I've never noticed the rear of these cars being different. Did I miss something there or would the V8 kit work for the V6 also. I can't imagine them selling 2 different ones and that not being the case.

Edit: links to CarID:

Razzi

Duraflex:

So apparently these kits are identical... I'm guessing they are sold under seperate names. Makes my decision easier anyway.

Looks like even the rears are the same. I posted the rear pic of the Razzi with the V8 kit. I meant to post a V6 kit but it looks like they do sell the same rear valence for the V6. I didn't want to ninja edit them out because then the responses under them would look silly lol.

My question then becomes," Why would anyone buy the Razzi kit when the Duraflex racer is the same kit for $125 less?"

Not from my own firsthand knowledge but from members on a different forum, Duraflex is a nightmare. Bad fitment and one person had his front nose warp after being in the sun a few hours. Google Duraflex and you will see other complaints as well. So my vote goes to Razzi.

I purchased the Razzi with the V8 rear from CarID and it fits like a glove. I bought it painted and color matched perfect.

^^^^Looks nice man^^^^

I've been looking online and it appears the Duraflex and Razzi are the same exact products probably bought from the same manufacturer and sold under different companies.

On CarID you can order the Razzi @ $725 and $70 shipping or the Duraflex @ $601 and $185 shipping lol.

I was hoping to find a vendor on here that sold the kit.

I'm not going to install it myself so I'll probably get it unpainted and have the body shop do the painting before the install. To anyone with experience: How much would paint and install usually run on this?

Ok, there looks to be some confusion, so let me explain.

The SS exhaust comes out further than the V6 and to account for that there are different rears.

If you put the v8 rear on a v6, then you will have to get extended tips. You can get them with the Razzi kit, but you can get them cheaper from elsewhere.

Or alternatively, like me, you can just put the SS exhaust on a v6 and then you're good to go for the v8 razzi rear.

I've also heard duraflex is a nightmare. I found a lot of bad thing when I was looking at getting the GMX body kit (duraflex that looks like the GM gfx). Now, they may have changed but I don't know. Razzi has a good reputation so I'd go that direction even if you believe they are the same.
