Default lower shroud replacement

I"m looking to ECS at their lower shrouds being advertised right now and my question is the big differences between the VW/Audi($139), Polcar($99, free shipping) and OES ($177) units. Is there a significant difference? I'll have to get the bracket and fasteners too, but just wondering? Big quality difference? My car is stock sport suspension so it doesn't hit anything but snow on occasion. Thanks for the advice.

No experience with them - but I would say they do take abuse so just go for the cheapest and plan to replace it again in five years.

I think you need to go the dealers. (most offer discounts if you are a member of the Audi club)

or contact carson: gtivr62801@gmail.com
