so i purchased a ssqv from amazon, my old one was stolen...
The only 2 things that set me off, were 1, the c-clip on my real one had a bevel, i know because i installed it backwards the first time. this one does not. 2. the nut length, although i didn't check this on my old one because i didn't mess that up. 3. the inside around where the valve opens is rough, and the paint looks uneven on the bottom, i had the silver one before so i dont know about this one. It does look better than any ebay one. it does have the regstered, the bolt holes in the nose cone and the cone it self are pretty sharp (not rounded) and prob could cut someone if i used some force. (not the star wars kind) If anyone has a black one, could you post a picture of the inside and outside?
Ive read up on it in side and out

Here are pix

i spotted that post as well. the only things that set me off are the finish of the inside, the bolts, and the c clip. otherwise, the paint seems like the HKS one (not sanded and even).

Confirmed real- i stopped by my local speed shop and they had one, i compared it to the real one, and it's identical
