For those who proudly rock the counterfiet parts...

Please have a look at this. These are fake Sparco, Takata or Bride "racing" harnesses that you bought, saving so much money over those suckers who paid full price for their overpriced, expensive parts.

I hope you never have a frontal collision where you need these pieces of garbage to work. Just like the **** knockoff wheels, big brakes, or other parts that you rely on to operate your car safely. Hope those few hundred extra dollars was worth it to be a baller on a budget.

Decapitated. I guess the bright side is that you'd never even know what happened.

Freeze it at 2 seconds, the metal ring at the mount ripped open.

Would be nice to have a comparison test with a split screen to show the real difference.
