They are too proud of their stuff, IMO. Some stuff is rediculously priced! I was gonna buy my sir lip from them, but damn, they want $280 PLUS another $91 for shipping. Kiss my ***. I found an authentic sir lip on Ebay for $217 shipped.

They have a good marketing strategy aiming towards young import enthusiasts. Much better deals can be had though through other online shops or local shops. Definitely over-hyped in my opinion.

Their alright i guess, i've gotten a couple cheap things from them. I was only mad when i picked up the EF stanley side markets, there was an option for "wire harness: add $15". The side markers alone were $25.

I get the package and the "wire harness" was some red and black wires...yea i already had this **** in my garage.

The prices arent "that" bad. but their shipping is very over priced.

Way over priced for average product. They just make so much product that other companies don't make at, all is why they stand out.

What really makes them suck, is they won't price match other brands they sell, compared to other website. Two or three bucks, no big deal. A twenty in difference and you won't match, I'll shop else where.

NopiOnline, JDMshit, HMotorsOnline, and OptAuto have done wonderful for me in the past.

From what I here (rumor has it) they have over 30 law suits on them for selling fake ****. Im guessing not the stuff they make them selves but most of the stuff they claim to be JDM.

They may have high prices, but past experience is with them you pay a few extra bucks and you also get a lil bit better quality, in most cases. The shipping i agree is stupid, 15 bucks to ship a cam seal 2 states up, get real. it just depends on what you need from them.

They have a good selection of parts in stock and also great customer service. I purchased aftermarket JDM 99-00 civic fenders. Price was cheaper than other sites and were in stock at the time. I do agree though, most parts' prices are a little on the high side.

Password does not sell stolen products and either do reputable "JDM" shops. Shops that sell stolen items are usually ghetto little "race shops" ran by stupid kids.

Passwords part are not fake. The ones that are replicas are stated as jdm spec, etc. meaning they are not trying to pass them as real parts. They sell replica and real deal jdm/oem parts and i've never had a bad experience with them.

Prices are a bit higher for most items as others have said, if I was you i'd go through JHPusa and use promo code JHP10. You'll get 10% off your first order, just don't go through their ebay store. GL

Their carbon fiber intakes are far superior to others on the market. I have one on my set. IMHO i think they are one of the better dealers on the net.

JDMshit still a legit site? Last I looked, their site had not been updated for years, so I quit looking at them... It would help me if they're still in business though!!

oh and i voted "they're ok" because I think some of the stuff that they are just a middle man with, (products made by other companies) are cheaper than buying from that company direct, but PasswordJDM made products from my experience are made like dog ****.

I got a b series spark plug cover made by them, from them because it was "only" 80 some dollars. Received it and immediately realized I got bent over spending 80 bux on it. You could literally see gaps and see thru the carbon fiber because it was so poorly made, it was hardly glossy after waxing it 2 times, and it didn't even fit right. It sits a little bit crooked, and the 4 holes didn't even come close to fitting, I had to file 2 of them to make it work. Would've spent the extra 20 for a better one if I would've known this before...

I also got a whale dick from them (made by them) and it was the same way as far as glossiness. looks good in pics, but not really in person. Not quite sure if it helped performance wise cause it's not the only thing that got changed between tunes...
