Exclamation Buyer beware jbspeed.com

These two items are vastly different prices, however I ordered both to see the "Premium Quality" claimed by JBSPEED shipped from China. They are identical in material and workmanship with absolutely no difference.

Amazon item link - https://www.amazon.ca/Center-Kidney-...omotive&sr=1-5

JBSPEED site Link - http://www.jbspeed.com/bmw-dual-slat...free-shipping/

I was able to PayPal dispute the item and receive a partial refund. But others be warned, if you can find it on Amazon or Ebay for a fair price with reviews its likely exactly the same for a fraction of the cost. The absolute only way I would use JBSPEED again is if I couldn't find it elsewhere, and even then I'm not keen on it.

The community deserves to hear this considering the reference to JBSPEED here is why I tried it.

What’s funny is, they use a lot of IND distributions product photos, then watermark them as their own, and charge more.

Fit of the JBspeed piece, or the cheaper-but-looks-identical one? I thought from your original post you had sent the one back to JBS?

Fitted JB speed and its off by more than 1/4 inch on the top seam. Didnt need to return as Paypal refunded it without need to return. Obviously shipping the 10$ of plastic back to china is useless.

cheaper one is not fitted yet due to time. however I do expect this fitment gap to be far less as the edge is slightly better on the cheaper one.

Starting to think ill need to pay Dinan for a proper grille....
