We know that, it's just a bit of leg pulling.

If this had been the first time I'd ever used Febi I'd have given you your point.
I've used their stuff for years, along with Lemforder, TRW, Mahle, Bosch, Pagid on the whole.
I've never had a single issue with any of their kit, it's always done the job without issue, it fits well and feels and looks like good quality.
Find proper OEM kit for an Audi 90 at a dealer? With some exceptions, yeah right.....!
I've had stuff come out of the Febi box still with VAG group part numbers on them so I'm happy they are the proper gear.
I accept that other people may have differing opinions and experiences but I can't speak for them.

Hopefully the starter of this wont mind the hijacking of his thread and wonder why he came here in the first place.

Just checked a ball joint I have (in stock so to speak), and it's in a Febi Bilstein box.......it's the same packaging as far as I know as it's always been...........so how is Febi packaged?

Anyone?

It's just Febi-Bilstein, there is no separate company.

I think Bilstein, the shock absorber specialist might be a separate entity but the aftermarket spares company is just Febi-bilstein.

I've certainly not got a problem with their products.
