wallbro fuel pump .. crap quality? or is it just me?

hi guys

fitted the new fuel pump today.. and noticed , its got plastic in places the standard one has metal..

the rubber pipe that comes with it , is crap compared to standard

the clips are crap compared to the standard ones.

is it just me? why couldnt they make it look OEM at least?

hi no it is genuine, and ive compared it to guides online etc. its identicle to the ones in the pictures of the guides.

plus i got it from harvey, i trust him.

the quality is good, just not as good as the OEM one, just the idiot doing it with me being fussy, saying crap clamps/clips, even cheaper pipe, not as stiff as the standard one lol more than likely winding me up.

he drives a gt4 so just jealous lol
