It surprises me that people (in general) continuously say VIS is better than Erebuni and vice versa. But let me ask you all this (I guess just for peace of mind): Have you owned BOTH the Erebuni and VIS front, rear, and sides? Or are your opinions merely influenced by biased comments made by other individuals?

I've said this time and time again... fitment will always be an issue with replicas, UNLESS the body shop that installs the kit knows what they are doing. Personally, I can't make a legitimate analysis on this topic since I've never owned an Erebuni kit (primarily because I can get VIS kits $10 to $20 above cost), but the VIS kits that I've owned both the Veilside and Z-Glide styles and they did have "minor" fitment issues. However, since I don't believe in HALF-ASSED installations, the final results always came out just as if I bought the authentic kits.

But seriously... this is my recommendation: If you are going to buy a replica/knockoff kit, go with one that fits your budget and make sure it's made by VIS or Erebuni... Replicas of Replicas of Replicas simply will just give you even more problems... And once you get the kit, make sure you have it installed and painted by a reputable body shop.... Unless of course you don't care if the install is half-assed or not...

Just my $0.02.

actually i own Erebuni front lip and VIS sides and rear so i can make this judgement...erebuni is better

That's not the same as owning ALL 4 pieces from BOTH companies at different times... With all due respect, I think that it's not a valid, legitimate, or sound judgement.

They are both the same, every kit will need fitment modifications some (more then others)

Believe me if you think buy a body kit for cheap thats all your getting is a cheap body kit.

You get what you pay for basically.
