Full A-spec (OEM replica) for $350

Been looking for a used A-spec lip kit recently and came across a guy selling one on Craig's list. Tells me 350 for the kit, new still in box, unpainted, but comes with no hardware, sounds like a good price, but what do you guys think? I'm not 100% sure I want to risk it, or just save more and go OEM. It just seems like if save a lot of money going with this one. Thought?

I would go OEM, aftermarket usually doesn't t fit perfect and quality isn't always there.

You are going to spend an additional 300-400 just to get them painted and hardware on top of the 350 purchasing the kit. That right there is OEM money and would go that route.

There are alot of horror stories through out the year on 6thgenaccord forum, people bought them and they did not came with mount hole (no big deal) also the side skirts came half inch short so the guy have to go get fiberglass to make it fit. Moral of the story is you think its cheap but by the time it mount and looking good as OEM kit the cost is more than OEM getting repainted.

No hardware-no purchase.

Also hear that fiberglass bends and breaks easily. If there's one thing I've learned for our cars is to just go OEM the first time and spend the extra cash.
