when it comes to sub $1000 aero.
brand is not as big of an issue as luck.
ive had $100 ebay bumpers fit better than Origin or Version.
although there may be a better chance for you to "get lucky" when buying better cheap aero.

URAS makes brackets for sagging rear bumpers. look into them if you dont want it drooping in the middle.

Epic Fail of s-chassis owners.
Cheap = cool yo yo yo yeeeee yeee 240!!!111oneone
Money well spent on quality = you are an idiot, but baller
Ah well.
It's like you get what you pay for. When I buy something cheap, I am not surprised it was cheap in the first place :-/ Always a compromise. Simple math.
Hmm should I buy megan racing arms or SPL arms? Hmm should I buy those ebay wicked racing arms or SPL arms? Hmm should I buy rota wheels or Enkei wheels? Hmm should I buy ebay brand tires that are so cheap or go to tirerack and get good tires? Hmm should I buy made in china coilovers or Konis?
LoL..
When it comes to bodykits honestly always there's required work its common sense.. its a bodykit... just some are better than others and sometimes you get lucky.

Talk to me when you actually own and fit a body kit.
The only shit I've found that fits absolutely perfect is OEM urethane.

origin changes their molds constantly to ensure fitment and quality.. i'm not saying some people have not gotten parts that didnt fit perfect but most of what they produce will have a nice fit.

I've had customers want me to put the Origin kits on and I've had no problems putting them on. They fit pretty good. Sometimes they sag in the rear but if you know what your doing you can fix that really easy

Don't even attempt to enjoy your car unless you can afford quality parts. Rule of thumb, if it costs less than double what you paid for the car, it's a ticking time bomb.

wow....honestly that "double than what you pay for your car" thing sounds about right

Ditto...
I think I have been through 3 stream bumpers and 2 full kits, no modification at all.. Except i re drilled the holes, does that count...

god i must have the worst luck...
my origin fenders stuck up 1" above the hood which in turn made the fender to bumper fit terrible, cut and made new brackets, easy fix.
one side skirt had a hole in it. LOL.
and one fender is visibly wider than the other.
little crap like that.
BUT.
its been holding up great for 6 months of daily driving reasonably low.
