Bent strut replacment options
Hello everyone. I hit a curb and bent the left front strut. I was going to just get an OEM one from a junkyard. But I started seeing Bilsteins, KYB, and Monroes for a few dollars more. Are there any brands to stay away from? Is the OEM made by Bilstein anyway or no? I don't drive my car hard and ideally would replace both fronts. Just the left side for now and the other in 2 weeks..if I don't get OEM used. Thanks all!

Monroe are about as good as the OEM.
