funny, quality replica to me is an oxymoron . I'm a firm believer in the "pay to play" edict. If you can't afford it, then don't buy it.

Getting knock offs to me is like getting these because you can't afford brembos :P



sorry for going off topic, I just saw "quality replica" and couldn't resist the urge to chim in.

If it's the same quality why pay more? Sounds like a waste of money to me. I personally would rather save $1000 for the same quality product than be out a grand for a name brand.

i know the subject of replicas is one that is much debated, so I don't want to get into it here, as i've gone off topic far enough here.

but somewhat on topic, even shine auto states that fitment is close to the original (but even real kits will have some fitment problems)..

i would recommend you to check out bodykit from Auto Shine Project. Don't judge when you don't even know what it is. Few members here bought their kit and have NO COMPLAIN whatsoever. May i ask what kit you have on your car? Have you ever buy authentic kit before? have you buy replica kit before? if you haven't then keep the comment to yourself.

Bubble, I apologize for the way i stated things, I didn't mean to imply that the Shine Auto kits are poor fitting. The quotes was trying to quote what others have said about the kit. I'm sure even authentic kits will have fitment problems, and from the reviews i've seen on the board, i'm sure that the fitment is pretty good on the shine aero products.

Again, i'm sorry if it sounded like I was saying their stuff is poor fit. (I just re-read what i typed, and it did sound like i was bashing them )

IT IS A BIG DEAL !!!!! J/K
I am waiting for the kit so stay tuned . I have a nice camera so you will be able to see every detail i'm sure. Plus when the kit does arrive i will take my 2 week vacation and dry fit it then paint and intall.

What kind of spoiler should i go with i was thinking VS version 3 or either somthing smaller.
