if they can make them functional and make them flow with most kits then they are on to something huge.

To design something new and make it functional would be a large undertaking.

i dont get it. they replicate someone of the worst kits that are affordable but ignore the kits in high demand but area really out of most people's price range. its like they have zero business sense or are too lazy to do research. like replicating the damd diffuser. i promise you that there are half maybe even the quarter of people who want the damd over the top secret. the damd replication is damned to being with, pardon the pun

I want Shine Auto to replicate the Top Secret diffuser too, but I think you're going overboard. Unless, of course, you really think that their replica Nismo and Amuse kits are a) ugly (subjective) and b) not in demand (much less subjective)

I'd be interested in hearing their explanation, though. Maybe it's too intricate a design to get a good replica of? I know they pride themselves in their "as good if not better than" original fitment, so maybe they'd rather not do it vs doing a half-*** job? No need to go ape on Shine just because they won't do it, man. At least hear them out.

I still would like to hear from Shine about why they can't/won't do the Top Secret one.

I wanted the TS, but 1) was more than I was willing to pay 2) I have HKS ti and didnt want to modify 3) I knew everyone would have it! So I went with the Damd piece, dosnt look as good as the TS, but a lot better then most rear kits! Maybe if Shine did replicate, for the right price I would modify, +1 on a explination.

shine seems to be the company to go to for a great replica. I think the damd one is pretty sick, whats with all the hate? if shine really did make a ts rear diffuser (seeing as they'd rather make the damd), it'd only make sense for them to do a gb before the product is actually made. then it'd end up like punkstr's do luck gb which has been going on FOREVER. There are a bunch of people who gave their deposits almost a year ago who haven't seen anything yet. wouldn't you rather shine keep its reputation and do things their own way?
