I can see what folks are arguing about with the "Authenticity of things". They did spend time, analyzing the stock body, and making minor adjustments and creating their 'own' kits from it. Yes the Ideology is there, and I do agree it's good to support the original creators. However if you have a company that's spitting out products better than, quality wise, the "Authentic Brand", it kind of makes you wonder why those Authentic brands don't up their quality as well? The iPhone 4 had it's 'connection issues'. Say for instance, some knockoff Chinese company released their own "iPhone 4", which was almost EXACTLY the same as the real thing, and didn't have that reception issue, would you assume everyone who purchased iPhones before would be dedicated to Apple and not consider the less expensive, but better quality iFake phone?
Perhaps my analogy sucks, but if Shine Auto is taking business away from these "Authentic" companies, what's stopping those "Authentic" companies from ramping up their QC?

amen to that! if your worried about what other people think or your only trying to impress others than:
this isnt my first rodeo pal, the hks turbo kit that i had on my supra probably cost more than your whole car clearp, almost more than my sc, either way, who gives a ****? nobody but you! the owner! who the hell wants to wait 3-6 months for something you paid for in advance, by that time your whole attitude might be in the ****ter. i dont know about you, but i go through cars like my underwear! lol.

I dont care how much your authentic HKS kit cost buddy, it's you repping for a fake company that I have a problem with, you dont seem to get it. I also dont give a s*** about how many cars you go through lol, what is your point on that? You're a baller that buys fakes? Wonderful.
I'm done with this thread, fakes seems to have 10000000 excuse on why its a good to buy fake, ones that buy authentic don't seem to not understand the business side of things. Fact is they copied others, whether it's a bit better or not, it doesn't take away the fact that that is what they did. It's different if they changed something, or if they made their own kit. I'd buy Shine kit any day, if they design their own product. That's all I'll say about this.
DvSiR, I don't try to impress anyone, the reason why I buy authentic is... Oh what's the point lol.

I was reading a magazine and made an observation.
Why isn't the same said for wheels? BBS LM's have been knocked off by SSR, Work etc.. and we pay full pop for those. I don't know the originator of Work DH's but every company under the sun seems to have a version of those. There's alot of similar wheels (Waffes/D3S) that are ripped off by other companies. Please don't tell me because there's one less spoke or some other minor variation that it's not a knock-off. Just a thought.
