well, one is more expensive than the other, and both with be better than the K&N panel, but i dont know how VWR can be £20 more, its the same surface area and most likely the same foam used.

+1 you pay for the brand like anything else, personally I'd go vwr just because it feels oem.

I have the pipercross filter bought directly from them and am pleased with it. I also bought the cleaner at the same time :smiley:
