OE are tres pricey, last way longer and have bumper-strip mounting holes
pre-drilled. In the North Bay area they cost circa $500.

There is at least one aftermarket supplier for whose product none of these
things can be accurately said. I buy them from H&H distributors in the East
Bay (San Francisco), they cost me around $120.
