EVO-R vs Password:JDM carbon fiber
So I'm thinking of getting some CF engine compartment covers which both Evo-R and Password:JDM offer. Both look somewhat identical and about the same price point, so I'm unsure of which brand to get. Anyone with opinions on either brand? Good, bad or ugly lol...
Obviously Evo-R is a vendor on here so I'll give preference to them, but I want quality at the end of the day.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Evor is cheaper, generally most parts are spot on though I hear the rear diffuser has slight fitting issues. Password jdm is legit, but youre paying that premium for shipping\part. Personally I would do the PW:JDM since its legit.

I'd stay away from EVO-R... You may not ever get your part at all.

If you are worried about recieving your part from Evo-R, buy through Z1 or any other online retailer. You can call and endure they have the part in stock as apposed to drop-shipping. I don't own any pwjdm parts but I do have quite a few Evo-R parts and I can't complain about them at all. Just be sure to clear coat your Carbon with a UV protectant before installing. Even the engine bay covers. Because why not?

I actually bought one. Unfortunately it wouldn't fit under my '14 Nismo Strut Brace bar. The 2 extra diagonal bars wouldn't clear the width of the TS cover  . I ended up selling the cover to a local Z owner in my area. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Trust me I thought about it. But I figured I paid for a Nismo so I really wanted to keep all Nismo components, including the strut brace bar. Plus I kinda needed the money lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

The CF door handles I bought from evo R are a terrible fit. I can't believe I wasted the money
