to throw extra dirt in my face the seller
Leosport Store on aliexpress refused to even respond to my email... shame but this message will hopefully save alot of people from making the mistake i did my car was not low and this was properly installed the shame... all the research i saw lead me to believe this may auctually of been a good decision as theirs not much stress on this bolt but i was wrong!! so dont be me buy real **** or keep oem
I feel bad for you since you crashed your car, happy that you weren't hurt but ultimately I feel that this a lesson all people should learn. Buy real ****
Everyone eventually learns not to purchase knock-off parts. It just takes longer for some than others.
I was one of the slow ones.
Knock offs are only sometimes okay on non critical parts like hood spacers, upper radiator bracket, valve stem caps or other non stress bling spots. And even then, fitment may still be a problem.
PSA: skunk2 are even inferior parts compared to most. knockoff suspension parts? death wish.
Eh, some of their parts are pretty alright. Their B and H series cams are nice. Intake manifolds are decent (Ultra series work well but the finishing machine work leaves something to be desired). Their throttle bodies are garbage (Pro series). Camber kits/LCAs are fine. Coilovers are garbage.
-IMO

Agreed. I'll only use generic/knock off parts for simple cosmetic things like you mentioned, and even then the craftsmanship or overall aesthetic of the pieces are almost never as clean/professional as a comparable part from a reputable company.

More like don't lower your car, it will make you buy more ****.
