Do the copy cats have the hole thats in the inner side of the foglight. I saw the ebay copycats and they seem to have the duct on the outside.

looks very very similar to the Admiration kit... maybe it is a newer version of the mass cloned kit we all know.

Heres a pic i took this morning. It actually came with a front clip so it seems to been able to sustain thousands of shipping miles.

I looked through most of the sites and cant figure it out, was hoping to figure it out before i post it in the classified ads section. Could be a replica or authentic who knows. Anyhow its not a US copycat at least since its still in one piece.

Thanks for your help guys i put it up for sale in the classifieds section if anyone is interested.
