Some things to consider:
- How do they fit, most aftermarket companies have crappy fitment
- Are they polyurathane?, almost all aftermarket compnies are fiberglass
- I dont think there is a honda etch, just white lettering

since theres a part # and the actual pieces that hold it on, i would assume they are real too..however mine did have Honda painted by the # with white letters.

looks like these were repainted so the white lettering paint that would say "honda may have been painted over.

There is an ST7 and some other numbers on all the middle peices running down the skirts. I will take a pic of what im talking about when I get home

The real ones should be ABS plastic. But as long as the fitment is okay, polyurethane is a great material since it's so durable.

I think they're pretty close, but polyurethane is a little more flexible...almost rubbery...

Don't the real ones have weatherstripping? Or is that a misnomer?

those are def. real for sure. being that i am an owner of a set of real ones i did much research when buying mine...so u have nothing to worry about. weather stripping could be taken off but theyre real being that they have clips and part numbers. like stated above, the honda lettering might have been covered by the overspray....btw i might be selling mine due to the fact that my car got stolen about a month ago...looking to upgrade to a 2001 gpw/red s2k...any serious offers can be pmd or emailed to me. thanks

OEM. If they have those tabs on the inside like the one you pictured, they're OEM. Replicas don't have any of that ****.
