    I think this is the same shop that I've seen copy other stuff out there too.

    Anyone try these CABs?

    Most here don't support them. If we do then THR will stop developing parts.

      they aren't that expensive from THR

      all this knock off shit is killing our market. I used to browse ebay for all the rare/oem/nla parts, now it's filled with chinese garbage. page after page of chinese turbo manifolds and sportmaxx rims..

                    Thanks guys for supporting shops that spend money on developping original parts. As was mentionned, if you buy knock-offs, nobody will develop new parts. It will not serve the community. And THR probably didn't get rich either developping their control arm lollipop.
