NON-OEM vs OEM spoiler LED lights...

Aite...I've found a few threads talking about this issue, but not enuf info in them...so, my question is, who has added a replica spoiler and had problems with the LEDs not being as bright as the factory's? And which replicas don't have that problem? Do you have to change the shocks out when adding the spoiler from the factory? I've heard both yes and no...I got a discounted price of $440 for a factory spoiler...and I have a vendor at my dealership doing replicas for $295 thru Texas Spoilers...trying to figure out if I should spend the extra $150...

i wouldn't be as concerned with the LEDs not being as bright as much as i would be concerned with them going out.

if you want a replica oem spoiler, spoilerdepot.com

but i say spend the extra cash...why risk it

The LEDs in my aftermarket spoiler are not as bright as the oem but it was 1/3 of the price and the other LED tails are plenty bright.
