(((GB: Replica ACS Front Spoiler)))

dtmryan · 07-22-2006, 12:40 PM

1st lip will be in today!

FYI Its always recomended you buy the authentic lip. For many reasons.. If you have any questions or concerns give us a call we will be glad to answer any questions. We do carry the authentic as well, but this replica is just a cheaper alternative, but carries no warranty what so ever. thanks

ShiraiwaRiku · 07-26-2006, 01:34 PM

this is taking too long..

and I'm really confused at the current situation..

(I'm sure i'm not the only one)

therefore I withdrew myself from this GB..

sorry if it causes any inconvenient..

ps. I already bought the rep from Brad from Taiwan..

ChineseGuy · 07-26-2006, 04:12 PM

dtmryan · 07-27-2006, 06:41 PM

:rocks:

wow are you serious? you're ok with that? you're ok with the fact that you spent the money to do the R&D get it certified and approved...only to have some sweat shop in tawain make a copy of it and sell for 1/2 the price? you'd sport a FOLEX too and be perfectly ok with it too i suppose. That's the mind set that causes german tuners to shy away and not provide aftermarket support because why bother, as soon as you make it someone's going to make a knock off of it. Sure it's been around forever but does that mean that it makes it ok? And if you're spending 40k plus on a car, you should also know better than to cheap out...

*steps off soapbox*

dtmryan · 07-31-2006, 04:02 PM

well, i would agree with you 100% with you if we were talking abuot something that requires a good amount of R&D such as a performance part, but this is cosmetic, and if its fitment is about the same, and noone could tell the difference between new and rep, then why the stress of paying soo much more? i understand now that if everyone bought replica parts then the real creators of the pieces (ACS,HARTGE, Etc.) would not make a reasonable profit and therefor stop making and designing pieces alltogether, but this isnt the case, if a small population makes and purchases replica parts then i dont think it should bother them very much, they are already making a killing on the people who buy the authentic parts (300$ shiftknob, Etc.). i guess my mentality is such that i dont think im hurting anyone by buying this replica lip...everyone is entitled to their own opinion, i respect yours in that aspect.
