yes, same as omni, pic, and megan racing. What happens is you buy in bulk coilovers, they can come in custom colors, they can add your company logo, do some pattern on the top, whatever..

the problem with this is horrible r&d, and very cheap parts prone to failure, hence why we see plenty of leaking and breaking "jdm" full body coilovers.

the best bet is koni's + ground controls. Stay away from anything from a company that just popped up out of no where selling someone elses stuff.

- and a funny thing about d2 is they actually stole the graphic of d2, and the picture of d2's home location with the big d2 sign, is actually a company in Germany that has nothing what so ever to do with coilovers or car parts.

if you want to see for yourself, check out http://www.alibaba.com and toser is the big one, they make all of omni's line for him, as well as mostof the others.

i mean, it's no biggy, but i don't like the idea of someone buying a coilover in taiwan thats made very cheap and breaks for $37 a set, and then imports them here and sells them for 599$


look familar to anyone, these cost $42 each to import to the us,

but you kids buy them up day and night, so shrug..
