Default BYS authenticity

Just read a long thread about a buyer receiving a replica BYS spoiler instead of a real one ...


so I was wondering is there a way to authenticate a real BYS CF spoiler? Stickers/emblems/etc?

Again its for a BYS CF Spoiler. Can someone also tell me what the retail is?

TIA

BYS never made a CF version of the wing.

Also, I always thought the copies were pretty much exact w/ the original. I had a copy and didnt see a difference compared to so called real BYS wings.

lol **** .. well there goes the neighborhood.

The only reason why i was inquring about the real BYS is of course the price and the deal I would be getting. Can anybody quote a price for a real BYS spoiler vs a replica CF one?

Thanks

IT's true.

i bought my backyard special rear spoiler used. the previous owner paid close to 600 at bulletproof.

i have compared the spoilers with the replicas and its pretty much identical...to what i know ..there is no badge that says backyard

You just cant.

Shine Auto makes a lot of copied products. Once you paint them them, no one would be able to tell. Kinda sad for all the people who buy OG ****..but people have to make money some how.

IMO..a real BYS wing is not worth it, unless youre getting a really good deal. Buy a copy. 99% of the people with this wing have a copy. Except Jared...his ballin *** has all the cool ****!

On the ASM..I think motorklasse made one and I believe GT motoring made one also. Check their websites out.

Also check out S2ki classifieds sections. ASM wings pop every so often.

Why buy real when you can get a replica for half the cost and no one will know the difference? (Note: Excludes wheels)

Personal preference. Please dont turn this into a debate of real and fake parts.
