hahaha b4 everyone flames you... cattman is a direct bolton no fitment issues and the best company for our cars...but their prices are rele high(good quality is expensive)
obx is a knockoff company ... some have fitment issues that may need some cutting and w.e else but i blieve the new obx version doesnt need it... but again their quality is not near as good as cattman...save your money and go cattman you will not be disapointed
