Default Exospeed front end vs strada front end

Does anyone know the difference in the exospeed front ends vs the strada font ends. Im looking to get one for my integra. Is the quality better one way or other. Which one fits better? Which company has better service? I see the strada 3 piece front ends are a little cheaper. If anyone has any epierience with either please leave a comment.

Well if the exospeed is a better product i dont have a problem waiting a few extra days. Not trying to bash either company i was just getting other peoples opinions on the matter.

Oh, I know - I ordered an Exospeed. I've just been waiting for it for about 3 weeks longer now than when it was supposed to arrive.

After reading it seems like exospeed is a better product. I also think they look way better. I have also ordered wheels and front end. Just a waiting game now I guess...

I picked the exospeed because of the looks 1 and after seeing a few in person and up close I was satisfied with the quality. They're great looking fronts, waiting is a bummer - but I guess when there's the demand for them that there is, it is expected.

Strada is a knock off plain and simple.. its a direct copy of the jcr front ends. Exospeed actually owns the jcr molds and strada stole them. I dont support scum bags that cant even design their own ****.. wait till their da front end comes out i bet it looks like *** since they didnt have one to copy.

wow your far from the truth. im so biting my tounge right now. i dont know you so im not going to get into it with you because of your naive to the whole situation if you really want to support will do so, but to blast someone for copying something or remaking something like everyone else in this sport did right up till today. if you dont like strada just keep it to yourself. i understand you have a loyalty but damn everytime someone says anything about a 3 piece you guys always blast jay. the other guys stuff is a knock off too. jojo innovated this whole deal so really just leave it alone. i could go way deeper into to this but its no ones buisness. will and jay both support this sport in many different ways so unless either one of them have done something to screw you over let the people in here state there experiences not who nuts your swinging from. and i know from first hand experience strada has designed 4 + kits himself and always strives to make them better. Jay has made some mistakes but he learns from them and is working to bring everyone a no hassle product. my 2 cents more like a dollar but you get the point.

Blah blah blah i have heard all about jay and his current and former company, the guy is a hack and nobody is going to make me believe otherwise... I dont nut swing obviously you do since you hold stock in strada but like you said you dont want to get into this.... "No hassle product" lol yea i messaged this guy back and forth about pictures on a front end all he responded with over and over was "we have them in stock place your order" as if im seriously dumb enough to spend 1500$ for something the guy cant even produce a picture of. I may come off a little harsh but this guy ranks up there with the guy that started xs power imo. he is even copying wheels now lol dude needs to get his own mind. The op asked for our opinions i gave mine and i would expect anyone to do the same about my products.

Back on topic.. IMO it's all personal preference, they both have great looking front ends, I have had good experience with Strada, and the carbon lip option is just straight sex.

Not sure about the Strada, but if you like hearing "it will ship this week" for months then Exospeed has you covered. Even worse with the "in stock" wheels.

I got the Strada front from Chad at Barber Shop. ctrparts.com on here. Got it in 2 days. Good guy to deal with. Both are good choices for fronts. My suggestion to everyone claiming long wait times for delivery from either company is to purchase one from a stocking dealer if possible. Just my 0.2 cents

I think the Exospeed looks closer to stock than the Strada and if your going for something close to sleeper status then I would go with Exospeed. If you want to run some really REALLY wide tires you might want the Strada.

Every time I see the two front ends on cars next to one another I am more drawn to the Exospeed.

It seems all company have a supply and demand issue has anyone ever thought about getting a company that makes body kits(ex wings west) to maybe mass produce them. its just a thought.
