Shine Auto is just 1 of many knockoff company's.Shine Auto is actually very popular on the s2k forums.Since they not only make things in durable hybrid material,but also are known for having 100% perfect fit.
Im not praising them for making copies of other kits but im also not gonna down them for taking a product and making it better.

Who doesn't know shine auto is a replica company. They don't seem to try to hide it. In fact, they have a pretty high reputation for their products and get many requests for knock off parts (such as my350z, s2ki, rx7club, and probably others).
I on the other hand have no first hand experience with them, but wouldn't hesitate to buy parts from them from what I have read and heard about them. I also plan on picking up some body parts for my race car.

The subject of replica companies apply not only to automotive parts, it's in all consumer products. Just like watches some will buy the real Rolex and others would buy fake. It just depends on the person.

Fiberglass is not like a watch.
Fiberglass is fiberglass. Fitment, is where the quality comes into play. Some "name brand" kits dont fit properly.
It is VERY inexpensive for these companies to make body kits. If one of them makes a good quality, good fitting product, ...who cares what the name is??

People are always saying the real thing is higher quality and fits better than the knockoff. What if it was the other way around? Choosing to pay less for a better product seems like a no brainer to me. Only downside is not supporting the company that designed the kit.
