I was told the replica is manufactured by the same company that makes the STI one. They are identical and both of great quality. I honestly couldn't tell them apart without looking for the STI logo.

where'd you get that info? I used to sell these wings and the company that made them was based in Hong Kong but the actual parts were made in China. I seriously doubt STi makes parts in China. Also the underside wing base is surface-mounted on the replica instead of flush-mounted to the wing itself on the STi one. That makes the wing sit about 1/4" inch higher than the real deal. The plastic wing bases on the replica are hard shiny plastic whereas the STi is almost a flatblack finish. And yes, I've seen-touched-installed both versions.

BTW - I got one brand-new-in-the-box left. $300 shipped to whoever wants it.
