I know guys with Honda Civic's that save their money and spend it on a $1500 front bumper, just because they want high quality, nice stuff.

Quality is quality, regardless of what you are buying for. I bought a $50 iPhone case yesterday because the $10 case was a cheap piece of china crap. (even though they looked the same)

Selling or buying fake, copied parts will only HURT our industry. Obviously some companies get offended when this fact is brought up because they try to make it seem ok.

The argument "hey, who needs to pay all this money for the same parts" isn't going to work. You pay for so much more when you buy an authentic part.

If you (and not you personally) have a successful company selling knock offs, why don't you try to be original and let other people copy you? Tell me how that goes.

How about you ask Shine Auto?
You dont pay for so much more. The Authentic part has flaws and errors. JDM parts are not always perfect. Buying fake, hurts the JDM community but the American community benefits. IF Companies were willing to go half way then we wouldnt have issues with replicas simple. I can say this, When I bought my Authentic kit from a vendor on here, total jerks about the whole procedure. Thankfully another vendor (Amplified Motorsports) were able to help out with the second one. I mean imagine spending 10k on kits and they fit like crap? tell me is that money well spent?
