Bumper Lights: Redlinemax or CustomEnterprise?

Redlinemax ones are $30
Custom's are $44

Redline Max Ones
http://redlinemax.com/catalog/produc...72edec41cf1d1d

Custom Enterprise Ones
http://www.customenterprise.com/view...asd/scspid/896

Which ones do you guys who have bought them prefer? $14 could be a nice difference, but I just want the best ones.

I got mine from CE and I actually have no problems with it. My sister got her's too from CE with no problems. I would say maybe for the cheaper one. It's one of those if you have money to waste go for the CE if not just go for Redlinemax.

I would go with Redline max lights even if they were double the price because CE is a bunch of crooks.
Everytime I have delt with them its a problem. I live in the same state as them and drive down so i dont have to pay shipping and i still get screwed.
Im not happy with their service.

eBay or nothing. You'd be a complete moron to get them elsewhere. Mine were like $22 shipped and look just as nice if not nicer than either of those.

ive gotten both of my sets (had a wreck) from CE. this time around they seemed to be a better build quality, but that didnt stop me from having to make some slight modifications to get them to fit a little better. all it requires though is to take some kind of material to wedge into the sides to insure they're locked in place.

but if i were to choose between redlinemax or CE now, id def. go for redline mainly for the cheaper cost. also he is always his rep on the .org is very high, and im sure if you talked to him during your purchase he would throw in a redlinemax decal at no additional cost.

IMO, whether you get it from CE, Redline, or ebay, the fitment will be the same. I believe they are all made from the same mold. CE uses a manufacturer in China (or Taiwan). Redline probably does too. I would think that these lenses were mass-produced from there (cheap labor = lower dealer cost = more dealer profit) and then distributed all over the place in the US. Then the dealers mark them up for their own benefit. Its so ridiculous how these things get marked up.

I'd say go with e-Bay and do these to them:

I think I will do redlinemax , i hate ebay. Thanks for the input.

Is the Redlinemax owner wandering around the forums? I would love to get some extra assurance from him...

Do you really need a poll for a $30 purchase? just go ebay,that's where I've gotten two set of bumper lights from, they're cheaper there anyways

I first ordered mine through Redlinemax but somehow the order didn't go through properly. I don't have a paypal account and found the site confusing when entering in my credit card info. I emailed them a couple times but my answers were never properly answered and when I emailed a couple times more they stopped replying. I wasn't impressed at all with the service so I went to Custom Maxima and was very satisfied with how quickly they responded to my questions and had my lights shipped out. I would personally buy from them again based on that experience.

To get the best service I'd just call Redlinemax.com. I bought my Stillen kit from him and will only buy from him now. He is on the forums but usually really busy his screen name is RedMax.

Advice to me is no longer needed, thanks for the input.

I do like where the thread has gone just discussing which company has better rep...
