Replica Vertex Kit. The authentic Vertex kit is FRP Made in Japan. Is there proof that this replica kit is made in Japan?

Oh helllllllllllllllll no!! So this is what CL has finally come to? Fake kits everywhere and a complete disregard for intellectual property? Version Select and this company should be ashamed of themselves for perpetuating the downfall of the of the aftermarket industry. It's acts like these that contribute to the way the economy is now.

Post Version Select Type-1

Version Select and Origin both come from Japan. Origin is their original line, and Version Select is a replica style line. As far as proof goes... Unless I get a customs clearance document for the last Version Select container there's really no way that you'd know where it came from, aside from the quality being really good.

You could contact version select though, maybe they have some way of proving this, their company is located here in the U.S. Elk Grove Village, IL

it's for the JDM one, so you will probably have to modify the rear lip.

Well there's obviously a demand for the knock off's since they are being sold. It's called substitute goods people. If you don't like it don't buy it end of story.

I think this is the Japan distributor of Version Select. All of their kits match the VS ones.
