this is copyright infringement. i think it's better to post up pics of your own replicas
Good post, but look at his sig.. Hes even asking members for their broken or "damaged" kits so that they can make more knockoffs.. Come on CL, dont support a knockoff company..Why dont we just drive civics and corollas because they are cheaper...

some people are happier with cheaper alternatives.

the g35 forum has one dude that makes a crapload of fiberglass knockoffs, and the people who do business with him are happy, and the ones that don't, have no comment


edit: actually there are several of their sponsors who make replicas:

please do lots of haters over here. I tested the waters on the IS by putting on a Fabulos replica....Funny thing is it fit like a glove just like the rear carands that cost over 900$ laugh away people and spend all that money for the "real deal"....Plus they are a vendor on here so what is everyone worried about

oh well to each their own.

Have a great weekend

man I just looked up the rando kit on l tuned. and the raceonusa kit. There is a difference od approximately $1000. I am seeing why the knock offs are selling. If you look at the pics of the replicas on the website prepaint, the fit is damn good imo.

Thats funny, I swear you were the same guy ranting and raving about getting asantis and then when you got them you made a big deal out of it just to return them. Not everyone does this to show off, I would say more do it for themselves now and days anyways. Car shows are so 90s.

But yes, most people will not know if its real unless they look hard. By that time, they are looking wayyy to hard for no reason.

if they can advertise 100% fitment with close-up pics, that would clinch the deal.

fitment is the major concern. you gotta pay to play, but if you know a good body shop who can fabricate anything, then i don't see any harm in getting replicas and save $$. having replicas and claming that you got the original, that's a whole different story.

...Great kit. To hell with the haters! I would buy the kit and save the money. If you have to say how much you paid for something, then you are saying it TO show off. Back to lurking......
