All I can say about their prices is "DAMN THEY ARE GREAT"
1. A EK9 front clip only $4000
2. gsr front clip $2550
If this place was around when I did my swap a while ago I wouldn't have got this torqueless wonder b16a

personally don't know anything about them, but saw a thread on jdmcivic.com where the guy said "As far as getting a clip I will not recommend you to the people that I ordered mine from do to the fact that it's close to 40 days late and they ripped me off. Don' buy Flashoptions.com!!!" - there you have it, for what it's worth.

Well that sux to hear. That GSR front clip for 2500 was looking pretty tempting...
Someone order something so we can see if these guys are legit.

I tried to buy 3 front clips from them, they just quit replying to emails totally when we asked specific information about sending them payment. I do agree they have some kick-*** prices, and I hope that they are indeed a stand-up company.

Flashoptions sucks!

Last April my friend ordered a swap from them (SR20DET Front Clip). They promised to send out EVERYTHING... ok so 4 months goes by, expecting it to only take a 30 days (because they were trying to pick out the best motor they have) and he gets the call from Flashoptions, "We're sorry, the motor we sent you out was messed up - we will have to send you out another one... but as a gift we will give you a Mines ECU for your troubles." It was nice of them to offer a free ECU which values at a couple hundred bucks, but again - the wait continues. ONLY 3 months this time, the motor arrives at the port - he was called to come pick it up, we thought he was gonna take his time picking the best motor he has - but it was just plain ugly... the internals looked fair, the exterior of the motor was horrible - it looked like it's been sitting outside right near saltwater... ALL the screws were rusted, it didn't come with the IC piping, missing a fan shroud, and their customer service sucked - replies would take a couple days to hear something like "Sorry, what else can we do?"

They never tried to workout anything with the IC piping or even the fan shroud (the car is overheating all the time), they did give him the ECU as promised, the shipping SUCKS and the motors are in poor condition

You get what you pay for

since they are so far from the states they got the upper hand... easier to rip people off. IMO
