I understand that and I've been on Shine's forum, I find it ironic that no one ever mentioned imperfections before until the company making the knock off said something 
And then some people are running with that and bashing the original kit and even trying to insult people that own them telling them they paid too much and they are rich etc...That's good marketing by Shine if you ask me. Knock off the original improve on minor imperfections and turn potential customers against the original design.

to fake it or not
it's really hard for some of us to come up with 3 grand fast yeah we know playin with the bigboys cost cash . but hell some designs are just the right ones like vertex. but also remember buying the fake // replica kits also support that company for them to make their own designs . I can tell you this ait is working on something now not for the sc but thier own design can't say more cause of a n.d.a but it proves that even buyin replica kits can support new product .
imo all that matters to me in the long run is price fitment and look i could give a d/// about a name

man.. fail -_-
you dont have to be rich to have cool things... just money management.
i spent months saving money to buy my GS... im still wearing the same clothes from last 2 years too..
but then again its your money..
the only thing i dislike is.. AC spent countless amounts of money to create the AC kit.. and a company like shine or AIT comes by, buys there kit and creates a mold. i dont care if they create a mold and "perfect" the fitment.. its still stealing someones design.
i believe we can all agree that thats pretty effed up. however thats life.
eye be tee el.
proceed.

If you have two companies, company A & company B. If company B can manufacture the same product as company A with better materials and cheaper. What sense does it make from a company just because it was first? All that matters is what is he best.
With that being said, all we can do now is wait to see the results of the AIT kit and try to intrigue someone into trying the shine auto kit

If you were company A and you spend $100,000+ in designing and producing a body kit + countless days n outta no where you get Company B who decides to copy your kit in 1 day and produce it and sell it for a lower price..
how would you feel?
are you going to lower your price so that you can get more buyers?? knowing that doing so you will increase the amount of units you would have to sell before making profit?
at least put yourself in Company A before saying its justified for company B to do what they are doing.
if i had an SC.. ide just get a 97+.. cuz its better n its not FRP

What i dont understand is that if AC spent so much time and money on r&d why dont they take ait to court for copying their kit?? (not being a d*ck, actually wondering). The only thing that i could think of is that they did not have there design patented, which if they spent so much money on the r&d why would u not have it patented?? thats just crazy because they know that people make knock off kits all the time.

Can't wait to see the bumper on the car....If you have been in another country you would know this is just the way it goes. I remember going to Dubai and seeing knock off everything...from sneakers to food..lol
