im also not a fan of knock off parts BUT if you rock the real rear and sides with a rep lip for clearance issues then... that might be ok.

nothing wrong with replicas.... if it doesnt fit, make it fit....

"everyone else go ahead and empty your pockets on a $2000 LV purse for your wife.... I'll be F'n my wife on a beach in Hawaii for that much money... and she would be much happier with the replica... so would I lol"

name brand is overrated.... thats why the economy is in the tank

That doesn't make any sense. What does make sense it to support the companies that design new aftermarket products for the 2IS. In case you hadn't noticed, we don't get the same kind of parts catalogs that Evo's and Subi's have.

Our cars are a different market. You will always get 20x more parts on a high performance vehicle. You just can't compare apples to oranges.

... It does actually. The world market would not be affected if companies like Vertex or Ings did not exist. therefore save your money by buying the replicas and spend your money on things that really matter in life (unless your car is all that matters.... (no mortgage, kids, family, friends... etc...)...

i really dont care about this subject. I know that I will be buying a replica kit, and the money i'll be saving is good for a few months in car payments... i also am not rich or come from a rich family so thats just my opinion

This is why i switched from Vertex to Wald. Even tho vertex is hella sexy but i cant rock any kit that has been replicated but then again this is just my own opinion.

Yes, I know it's a different market. But my point is that we get waaaay less aftermarket part selection than other types of vehicles. Therefore, all the more reason to support the companies that actually innovate new products for our cars.
