Hi.

WTF? what a load of crap it doesnt even say "style" or "replica". I mean I'm sure most people will know its not original but still harsh false advertisement.

some changs is going to buy it anyway....then we will see it online and people will give the same s#!t comment such as "looks good" and "nice". on top of that it will pop up at whatever car site that use a word "stance" post up by those bloggers that don't really know their stuff and thinking is real lol.

Sad, but knock-off products like this will be the downfall of Junction Produce and the likes...

nah... Just means Junction Produce is gonna have to step it up a notch

question: How long has JP had this kit? How long since its been changed? And have they come out with another? Just my opinion, but its about time to make a change Now that I think about it, paying $5k for a kit thats been around for years is kinda... idk. but then again, forgot, the 2gs is done now no need to make another I now retract my statement

I hear exactly what you mean. No doubt the JP kit is classic but its true, it is a little dated now and JP needs to step it up. A lot of their newer kits are starting to look more modern but unlike other brands JP will only make one kit per car where other brands like Aimgain and K-Break will make a new kit every other year. But at the same time I understand that JP does not want to invest in a kit for older vehicles.

Aimgain alone has 5 kits for the 2GS

Premium

Cygnus

Generation

Euro Line

Smart Line
