M3 side mouldings

Hey, what's the best choice for buying M3 side mouldings? I've seen DDM and umnitza, a difference of $50, what's the real difference?

Thanks in advance!

Well, there's a few guys on here who are convinced DDM is out to kill people with their crappy products. I don't know if that translates to body kits but it might be a good idea to steer clear just in case. With body kits you'll be looking at Plastic (called duraflex or something like that) and fiberglass. Fiberglass is stronger and takes paint better, but its heavier (which is why manufacturers of cars use lighter cheaper plastic). Best question is what do YOU want the car to do? then go from there

the proof is pretty cut and dry as they only seem to sell cheaply made chinese garbage at inflated prices, you can find the same junk on ebay for half their prices they only sell CHEAP KNOCKOFFS.
you can see in all of the major BMW forums more and more peeps are reporting problem after problem some of which resulted in crashes and injuries but all report sub par products of shitty quality.
choose who you support carefully since some only care about profits and disregard the quality and your safety.
