Vicrez Carbon parts on Amazon
Does anyone have any experience with these products? They make a decent looking diffusers, trunk lid spoiler, side skirts, and lips.
The website makes it look like it is American made. https://www.vicrez.com/ I have tons of Amazon gift cards to burn and this looks interesting: https://www.amazon.com/Vicrez-2014-2...m4+accessories https://www.amazon.com/Vicrez-2014-2...m4+accessories https://www.amazon.com/Vicrez-2015-2...=vicrez+m4+lip https://www.amazon.com/Vicrez-2014-2...m4+accessories |

Don't have any experience with them, but some are not American made. Right in main description for 3 of the items it states 'imported'
Not that it's a bad thing, I've had a couple CF items from Taiwan and they all fit well and were of good quality. Those good experiences were with Ikon Motorsports and RW Carbon...

I would be hesitant considering they use the original vorsteiner and BMW pictures to sell their replica items

Was looking at the vicrez front lower splitter and rear diffuser earlier today. Front splitter looks like it may be a 3Design knock off. Pretty though. Bumping in the event someone else has experience with quality. There's basically nothing returned in a general google search.
https://www.vicrez.com/vicrez-bmw-m3...tter-vz100503/ https://www.vicrez.com/vicrez-bmw-m4...user-vz100425/ Prices is hard to beat... thoughts?

I'll be receiving it soon and installing it on my own car in a few weeks when my wheels come in (doing everything in one shot). I'll be sure to post pics of my own experience when the time comes.

It comes down to price and value. It's one thing if these knock off parts were bad fitting and what not, but these parts fit very well and have money back guarantees if they don't fit. What's the harm for us consumers? I don't intend on spending much on cosmetic bits, but buying these overseas carbon bits means there's more to spend on things that actually matter, like upgraded turbos, or a keyed crank.

Because it's a lip, and thus will get destroyed no matter how expensive or inexpensive, the value prop isn't there to spend 2k on one. For basically all other parts (that don't get destroyed under normal use) I'm in total agreement on not buying the knockoff hardware. Update is that I ordered it (I even called them and they gave me a 10% code). Will install and post detailed information for others once it's installed.

Here is the rear splitter, installed. Bought directly from Vicrez. Have not seen it in person but my shop said the carbon is flawless, and the fit is mint (pic is of my car). Lip going on tomorrow and will post more pics once installed.

OEM M-Performance CF Mirror caps are made in China. Way to go BMW! Oh, and some CF parts on the Porsche 918 are also made in China. Way to go Porsche!

It's the copycats that have absolute disregard for other companies, stealing for profit.

Here is the front lip. Fit and quality is perfect. Only negative is they did not include enough / correct screws for install. Under a grand for the front lip and rear splitter delivered. Can not beat it.

Parts look good. Now it?s time to invest in suspension to compliment the lip and diffuser.
