Hey guys Something new at shineauto!

See! here you are popping THAT crap my way like I give a damn what you say. My goal with my car is not to get on websites like refined elegance and boast about how much I paid for this or that it seem your is........ but stop the hate you elite ****! you have made your point. You like to pay a lot of money for parts GOOD for you! you have made your point but just wondering, of all the guys that had something negative to say about the lip, how many of you make money selling over priced items to the community?
We also don't do it for the fame, we all been modding cars way before our forum join dates.

I'm a simple guy. Classic Adidas and Pumas suit my needs. Jordans don't. Does this mean I should got and turn this over to someone who can turn a profit to make cheap knock offs? Nike wouldn't like that, the people who paid for the exclusivity of the shoes won't like that either. If something doesn't seem to do it for you be it price, looks, whatever, simply don't buy it and move the **** on. No need to try and rip off one company just so another can turn a profit, this is stealing regardless of how you see it. And surely don't come on here action like you're the SC messiah bringing people all these reduced priced parts, the other half who did buy the legit won't like it.
2. ADIDAS before puma any day all day.
I feel that bootlegging shoes and stuff like is stupid and a Big no no. Parts that we can't get our hands on but we get really good copies of that part and that copied part just might be better than the original, hell yes! why not? if I had a s13 and got a copy of the aero bumper for a damn near 20 year old car would I still be wrong?

And keep our crew's name out of your post. RE has nothing to do with this. Kohinoors car is 4 years in the making and barely surfaced weeks ago, just like the other RE cars. Don't act like these cars came together over night and all we did was write a check. He didn't cheap out, he waitied patiently until he was able to do what he did and bring it together and clearly it was well worth it. He could have gone to shine out auto and had them make a Fertecks kit for him but he didn't it. No one here claims to throw money out of their asses, some people just want to do it right the first time even if takes longer.

you know why people get upset you buy fake parts? because you ultimately end up hurting the community. originators charge what they charge because of r&d and time spent developing products, they have employees to pay and overhead to cover. whereas companies making replica's have no money invested in r&d and ultimately lower overhead. this means when all the legit companies go out of business, all we're stuck with is companies with no real experience at making original parts that work.
p.s. don't know why you would rock fake parts, it's like trying to attain status symbols without dishing the cash, i.e. fake lv, fake breitling, fake rolex. but it's your money i guess. i guess with the money you save buying shoddy knock offs you can keep buying it when it breaks and falls off.

the way you're talking kind of makes you sound like a kid.

Yea brother it looks real bad and all with sides, rear and front lip. Man you should have went out and spent 2500 dollars on a kit. That way you could get more respect from some of our fellow club members.....Good looking car brother keep up the good work!
