Curious as to why you'd say that Kooks is down on quality?
I can say from a installers POV the Kooks fit perfect on all makes and models. As for the ARH stuff get a big ******* hammer!
One of your competitors over near BW8 and Little York that does huge volume and excellent work mentioned a consistent drop in the quality of the stainless Kooks has been using and have been avoiding Kooks whenever possible as a result. Given their skill with steel, it's a credible statement. They are still better than most, but no longer top of the heap alongside ARH. This was a few months ago so perhaps they've picked it back up.
Though no car is alike, I can also attest to that since day 1 ARH is the only maker whose fitment has been consistently equal to or better than Kooks.
