There = "Look over there"
Their = "Their car is dirty"
They're = They Are = "They're ok."

Memorize this.

Ordered their intake and had it in less than a week with their free shipping option.

The intake looks and sounds good. The only problem is that it didn't fit around my intake manifold. I actually had to cut some of the tubing from my stock airbox and use it as a "fitting".

They are to expensive IMO, I found the same items elsewhere and alot better in price. I don't care for there name on the parts as they don't pay you to advertise for them. OEM is the best.

Personally, having only been back in the JDM world for 6 months, I didn't find their products to be outlandish in price. I think everyone has their own sense of budget, and that's fine. For some Macy's is expensive. But someone else can shop there and love their prices. Again, 2 perspectives. Having been in the BMW world the last 11 years, very little is shocking me regarding JDM prices (Honda). Some things like shift ***** were curiously up there (135 for Mugen...ah, I'll pass)

But again, to each his/her own. I still think these tuner shops just laugh at how crazy US people are for JDM stuff, and willing to spend insane amounts. But it's with Euro stuff too, so it goes both ways.

so ive been eyeballing some of thier parts(lips, mirrors, ect.) and they all say mugen "style" are these really legit mugen parts or are they replicas?
dont want to buy a lip er something and find out its not really name brand.
there s a big differance between "mugen style" and mugen.

So that tactic really does work. Hmm...

Style means replica. It's all fake. That's why the prices seem too good to be true.

Anytime you see "style" next to a big brand name such as Mugen, Spoon, J's, Feel's it's fake.

Mugen "style"= Fake
Mugen= real. (generally, people will throw in real Mugen, real Spoon, Gunuine, stuff like that.

AND, Mugen/Spoon and J's lips don't come cheap. Price, is often times a quick way to tell fake from real. Unless they're dumb and sell a a BNIB Spoon EG6 lip for $100.

Overpriced. Unless its a "Password JDM" brand item. I wouldnt do it. Try Icb motorsports, or jdmshit, etc.

Even then the design is usually based on something another company already makes

Nice!

And I've gotten a few parts from PassWord and yes the shipping was more than expected, but the stuff got there safe and sound so I really didn't have any complaints lol

I personally buy a lot of my stuff secondhand and end up paying a pretty competitive price for higher quality parts.
