i've been debating between getting an origin and vertex kit

hopefully you can enlighten me a bit

how much did the whole kit and is it authentic?
is the headlight supposed to have that gap below it in your pics?
isn't origin a knockoff of vertex, what are the differences?
is it a bolt on kit?

Thanks booja, sorry if those are dumb questions

knock off was a bad word... my bad

i meant they kind of copied it, vertex came first and then origin kind of copied the design

sorry if i indicated that i meant it was a mold

origin had nothing to do with the vertex kit, nor does it look like the vertex kit

Origin and Version Select are believed to be the same companies.

Version Select is pretty much a copy of the Vertex kit but a little bit more aggressive. Origin is the same but the foglight hole has been re-designed.

Direct knock off? no

Original design? Sorry, I don't think so.

the origin is not like the vertex with the fogs redone...

the bumper has a similar shape but the airdam and everything is different.... the origin has a slightly different shape and it cuts up higher where the airdam is. the sides and rear are exactly the same

not a knock off but i believe just like all the other origin kits its not really original. its like a knock off with their own added flare...

I concur. I wonder what Ueno thinks of Kazuya Bai (Drifter XL) for copying his side skirt and rear design for the SC? I like how Origin advertisements state "Kazuya Bai has partnered up with Origin to redefine aero styling."
