I would prefer to go OEM's and I might do so when I finally pull the trigger on the set. I understand the quality of the replica's are different, but the cost factor is a huge piece when I am using them for 2 years, and painting them black. Also I have spoken to a lot of members on several boards basically that purchased from 3-4 places that all have had no issues with their sets so far.

I did check with the paint shop today the chrome will take a little longer to prep so a little more to get painted. It will be cheaper to the silver, and have them painted. Below is an X5 that is at the same shop I goto he had the chrome one's painted gloss black.
