Civic Type R Replica Kit (Singapore) and other stuff...

Shimian- I'm not going to have another pointless debate with you on genuine vs. replica. If you want to save money by buying replica Mugen pedals and Mugen replica interior mirror covers, go ahead. These items are unlikely to matter if worn out (well the pedals might have issues if they lose grip) but it's not like people can really see them. Of course some parts, using a replica doesn't matter, and as you also mentioned, it depends on where the replica was made. Furthermore, like all things, even genuine items can have QC issues.

everything can have problems, genuine or replica. but personally i find more satisfaction out of carrying a real gucci handbag rather than a fake from paddy's market. quality may be an issue but in the end no matter how much they look/feel the same, genuine always makes me personally feel the best. so when it comes to cars, its the same. i would rather pay 3k+ for genuine TE37's than pay 1k for replica. but then again i can be a bit of a brand whore =p.
