before installing, i would reinforce that kit with FG just to make sure its strong enough....

 

Hmmm...it says full body kit but I don't see the door claddings.

 

But if you break it, it's cheap to change too.... I like it, since I don't have the money. :P

But deep inside me, I think why if you don't have the money to buy something, especially as exclusive as JP or any VIP items, why pretend?

 

Looks like stock....with the exception of the sideskirts. Plus, if it was JP replica...then its missing the lower door panels.

 

Well except for the front bumper but the JP kit does resemble stock.

 

pretty cheap, the seller sure does have a bad rating.

 

replica? that's enough for me to say no

 

here we go..

 

 

Replica of a $5000 kit? What genius came up that idea? Didn't everyone see this coming? They already came out with JP style LED taillights and I'm glad they did. I mean come on, $1300 for taillights? Maybe if it was for a $120k CLS55. Our cars had it's days and can be found for less than $10k. Lexus or Honda the mod should be within proportional reasoning to it's book blue price.

 

why not just keep it stock? car is cheap doesn't mean you have to put these knock off stuff on the car, you still should keep up the class. even if i own a freaking honda doesn't mean i will pay a penny for knock offs.

how sad to see this in the gs community

It's inevitable for knock offs of expensive/rare items to sprout. We can debate about this for pages, but it all boils down to how much the owner values an item. I don't see anyone in the SC forum knocking each other for having a replica Vertex kit. To me, if it looks good, it looks good - fake or not.

 

Too bad it doesn't have the door caps. I'm going to call it the Junction Producer. hehe

 

The real JP kits are made from fiberglass as well and will need some prep work (sanding) for proper fitment. The only difference between the two will be the price. I would not want J.P or Knockoff..
