Volk
HKS (dont like the color)
Apexi

I got the Volk one from Performance Nissan as well. Mine was $3200 bucks, but it came with a free set of wheels.

They are probably all made in the same place and just have different logos for different companies. The Tein and Volk ones look exactly the same except for color/logo differences. They are most likely the same size as well.

umbrellas are gay period. Its socal, it doesnt rain too hard. A good jacket with a decent hood should withstand 99% of the rain we get here.
