Default JDM ITR Radiator support - Whats the deal?

Hey guys whats up,

I have just recently started my search for a jdm conversion for my r and i am planning to purchase within the next couple of months..

one thing i dont understand is that everywhere you look people are selling OEM Honda JDM radiator supports for 250 dollars.

My question is - Is there not any company in japan making aftermarket radiator supports for the integra over there like companys do here?

You can buy a new aftermarket radiator for most cars over here for around 100 or so dollars

As far as for the other stuff, i rather have oem honda especially for the lights and usually from expericence here aftermarket fenders and hoods dont fit that great so i rather have oem honda for that but even in those cases there gotta be aftermarket companys in japan making them too, no?

Just wondering becuase i dont think that as far as the raditor support it wouldnt matter if it was oem honda, since it is not seen and is easily modified compared to an aftermarket hood or fender as far as fitment

-thanks for all replies ahead of time

-James

First you said this:

Then this:

These are two different parts..... Go with OE because you know it will be correct. Many people seem to have the idea that OE isnt good, but OE honda for alot of items is the best choice.
