I understand that but replicating something is still not the same as an original. Car looks great.

wasnt L-Tuned just all cosmetic changes anyways? if he has all the components that a L-tuned has, seems ok to me. It's not like throwing a type-R badge on a GS-R, or a M badge on a stock 3series. Those vehicles have actual performance differences.

exhaust and suspension also.

Either way its his car, i could care less what he calls it, i was just pointing out a fact that others have questioned, no harm ment.
