I recently purchased a K&N FIPK Gen II intake from them for my S2000. The part took almost 3 weeks to get here because it was on back order. I was aware of this when i bought it but when i called them every few days they were always glad to talk to me and let me know whats going on. One reason I bought from them was because it said clearly on their website that it came with the filter recharge kit. I know this is only like 10 or 15 bucks but it did not come with the item and when i notified them of this they only apaologized and said they would change it on their site. They would not send my the kit that was falsy advertised on their site which kind of pissed me off. But other than that they do usually have good prices.

Yes I would also like to know if they are a good company to do bussiness with.

One thing I love about buuying off of E-bay is you can see exactlly how many Pssd-off customers they have had and why they were supposidly pssd off. You can't get that kind of feedback from an ad in a magazine or internet ad.

i just look at their prices and then go somewhere else. maybe others do too. they are way overpriced, imo. they've been around awhile, but they don't seem to have a rep either way on this site that i've noticed.

to me. was also wondering if they are legit and decent in the customer service
area.

If you're not sure about them, try buying something small (cheap) and if they are good to bussiness with, then work your way up to more $$$ items.

i got my tanabe nf210 srpings that were on sale a while back, and i just got my project mu b-force brake pads yesterday. no problems at all, prices were good. i had to call them for instructions to overnight the springs and the brake pads took about a week and it was free shipping so that was cool. i was kiiiiiiiiiiiinda thinking about considering one of those replica ings kits the have but im super iffy about it. anyone have experiences with them?
