Aftermarket ones do not leave gaps, as the dealer options do, I imagine quality depends on where you go, have you checked out cooper flags?

No reason a non dealer shop can't do as good a job as a dealer, in fact our local dealership used to just sub out the non factory fits to a lcoal company

I installed both myself, in a jiffy and saved a bundle. Cooper Flags was great!
