Default Ever hear of "Advan Designs"?

I tried asking in the Appearance forum but got no replies there. Sorry if it is a little OT but I find the ITR forum knows the most about the most obscure Integra products.

I bought some fender flares for a DC2 off ebay and they are made by "Advan Designs". The box appears to have chinese characters on it so I assume they could have come from HK or Taiwan. What's nice about them is they are molded only for Integra fenders and fit well. I would say they are knock-offs but I have never seen any other flares like them.

Anyone ever heard of this brand?

If anybody knows the answer to this question it is Shane. If he doesn't see this thread IM 'kengs'. Shane is the local JDM guru.

Advan is a Yokohama tire name brand.
Another stupid chinese knock off name used I guess.

Looks like I need a CDM gurr

On a side note you would think some CDM knock-off brand would just copy other peoples designes but I have never seen flares like these. Not J's, Not USDM universal, not any of that GTP stuff.

Does anyone have pictures of other fender flares made specifically for the DC2?

I'll post pictures up when I get home tonight.

Right now I'm debating on installing them or having some copies made then installing them. I'm not sure if I could find another set should something happen to them.

I should be able to make it to the last ESCA autocross. It conflicts with a Sacramento event but that event is in Stockton. F' Stockton.

When I autocross I use 235 tires and they tend to kick of a lot of gravel all over the fenders and hood when turning.
