A bit late to the game, but thanks for coming in and clearing that up Travis.

 

1st, should have took notice but this is an old thread sorry for bringing it back form the dead but wanted to put this info out there.

I'm not sure how familiar you are with Chinese knockoffs, but if you ever saw that episode of Top Gear (UK) it might make it clearer. The Chinese have an uncanny ability to copy a part, a simple scan and drawing and fake arms are being produced. With that, legal action becomes much harder. We have actually gone after 3-4 Ebay sellers that have had knock off parts and were successful because they had offices in the US. Those who are only overseas sellers are much harder due to their lax patent laws. We do what we can, but the cost would be very high to go after each one. We promote education and buying through authorized sellers as the best bet. As others have said, if it seems to good to be true, it most likely is, and saving a buck here might cost much more down the road. So if any questions occur, please give us a call at 800-525-6505 and we can help you determine if its a legit part. Thanks again!

^^ hahah i saw that top gear laughed so hard I swear they rebadged an X5. Although I have had some issues with the bushings for the SPC front camber kit, they seem to have held up pretty good with track use. My car is out at the shop now for the front camber but we will see what happens.
