Shine Auto - still a thing?
 

Has anyone had a recent experience with Shine? I'm going to make some exterior changes to the FD, and Shine used to be the go-to for a few items. I look at the site and there's a ton of old unreplied comments throughout.. but in this day and age of scammers I can understand that. Any input is appreciated.

I got a couple of items from them last year and no issues. Just a little bit of a wait. I did have an issue with them a few years back as I never received the diffuser I ordered after 5 months but they rectified that quickly after a couple of emails.

I appreciate the info. TY

Anyone else have a recent experience?

Was wondering the same myself. Rolled the dice and put in a fairly large order this past weekend. I figured worst case, I make it American Express' problem.

Now THATS the initiative we're looking for!! I may be doing the same. Please keep me posted.

I ordered an FD widebody and diffuser a few years ago and I wasn't impressed by their quality. The parts needed a lot of work (pinholes, warped parts, deep gouges, cracks) and I was so disappointed that I ended up reselling all of it and buying authentic JDM pieces. the JDM parts were much higher quality and needed less fit and finish.

10-4. Aftermarket be aftermarketing unfortunately.. Im looking at their OE bumper and support, being hopeful that its actual OE stuff.

I was wondering the same. They are the only ones I have found that sell a replacement carbon fiber lip that isn't a 99 spec

If it's OE you want, I'd either ask Ray Crowe or Ari @ RX7.com.

I know Ari has been very off uncommunicative lately, but no worse than Shine's rep on a good day. I've not heard of Ari just straight notnl delivering things, just kinda up in the air on when you'll get it.

For lips: 99'spec, Mazdaspeed, AutoExe, Uras, and others are widely available in Carbon amongst eBay/China sellers.

What Shine has that no others do is their flexible "HybridCarbon" which is a really nice feature in lips.
