Plus, since they're the vocal majority on the various boards these days they just keep spouting the same misinformation. Wonderful.
Meanwhile, the last of us selling our genuine/authentic/expensive parts are screwed since they'll only buy cheap *** inferior knockoffs.

Well after sending many pics to raceonusa, they have offered to give me a replacement bumper, of course I would have to cover shipping 
So, faced with spending more $$ and probably recieving the same crap, I'm gonna bust out the sander/ bondo and try to get this to fit. They also suggested heating the front to get it to flex and follow the hoodline, I'm betting it will crack, but we'll see what happens.
Yeah, high dollar "jdm" parts are usually better quality, but a lot of times they require just as much work to get to fit right. Check out the FEED fenders shine auto got from japan for instance. If the end product looks and functions the same, I have no problem with copied body parts, it's not like we're comparing a rolex to a ticking replica here. My car sees a lot of tracktime, I have better things to spend thousands on
Next time I will order my jdm ripoff body parts from somebody with a better track record!
