I dont think the Replica has mounting points on it... therefor you will pay the difference at the body shop putting it on. I could be wrong, but that is what I remember.

Replica's dont have the Cwest logo stamp that signify that its O.G., Replica's are usually gray or white, Replica's do not come with the oil cooler mesh grill or side air duct grills, and Replica's are heavier as well.

replica's usually don't fit as well either and or not as strong. I've seen a couple of authentic C-west kits at Tony's shop and they are very very nice. The fiberglass on them is better than most other bodykits out there and the fitment is very good too. Most knock-off kits don't fit very well and have gaps between the hoodlining or fender. You can save a couple bucks and get a fake kit but if that kit doesn't turn out nice when it comes out of the bodyshop it wouldn't be worth it in my opinion.
