Disclaimer: Febi Bilstein IS NOT Bilstein

[arjun90]

My concern is that Febi states their parts are made in Germany and its statement is deceiving to the consumer. I 101% agree that many OE companies are outsourcing production especially Lemforder’s partial move to China. I also never expected to receive a part Made in India. I received a Febi top rubber seat plate for my driver side strut assembly and found it to be heavier than the genuine Audi part. I had to return and buy the genuine part directly from Audi. Yesterday, I received two strut mounts for my rear suspension (Febi brand: each $30). The original genuine Audi Part is $100 each. My 034 Motorsport front strut mounts were $30 each and are made by the OE supplier as per 034 Motorsport. I thought I could something around the same price for the rear strut mount.
