I know my reply is bias but who cares, just giving you some feedback.

I know Origin is probably the most authentic product coming from VS. I also hear its good stuff, but I can't say anymore because of my lack of experience with the product. I'll leave it to someone with experience with the product to vouch for it.

I can however speak for Vertex, you'll benefit from the following:
Fitment and strength.

Our kits fit like stock - a few customers even had discounts from body shops because our kits fit so well. All pieces are predrilled to line up to the factory holes.

Strength and Durability - If you saw at December's D1GP All Star, our Vertex Soarer crashed heavily into a sidewall during the practice rounds. Despite this, our Vertex aero was fine. If you didn't see the crash, imagine going into a retaining wall at 30-40mph (braking).

I'm not saying our Vertex kits are indestructible. I’m just saying it's not brittle like a knockoff or other kits for that matter... with price comes quality, with quality comes strength.

Just my 2cents.

I can vouch for Origin aero (V:S as well). My brother's S14 has had both V:S and Origin pieces on his car and they've both fit like a glove. The body shop was impressed with the lack of modifying to get them on the car. They are also very durable as I've smacked a few cones autoXing and dragged a sideskirt without any damage other than the paint.

I've had both the v:s & origin kits. They are both high quality aero. The fitment on both kits was exellent. Very minimal modification to them. You should be happy with whatever decision you make.

I've seen Origin in person and was not impressed. There is a lot more to aero than just fitment. I speak from experience, I was in the aero business for 7 years. And yah, people who had good fitment from V:S is due to the fact that they were once new, with molds, they last for a little bit before they start getting built up material and start cracking from the heat. I don't see how they can afford to maintain thier molds at the prices they are selling thier parts for, even if they were made in China. Once the mold starts going bad, you'll start experiencing bad fitting parts.

there's something about SCs that I seem to gravitate to. I for one, would vouch for Vertex as well. I've installed a few things from them in the past and the fitment was a breeze.

I've never seen Origin stuff in person so I can't make any judgement against them. I can only give my opinion based on personal experience

my view on it

You can get an origin kit for like 600 (her ein japan)
vertex is a few hundred dolars more for a reason

Vertex is stronger, normally fits better and is well....vertex

Both are great choices, and you will be happy with either. But origin will require a little more fitting time than vertex normally.

if you really want opinions...

not very vip, but vertex looks the best. looks like flared 97 oem kit. there's a reason why its so played...

origin looks like they took a vertex kit and cut the hell out of the front vents.

big win front lip looks dope, but it doesnt seem to flow with the sides and rear for me.

wald, is nasty.

wise sports, inspection, and auto couture look pretty good for vip. a bit too clean for me. for me the vertex car really put the sc on the map. even tho its played out.
