What do you guys think? Figo iceman dim ?

I think it's legit, as i said earlier i am not suprised and they probably do it that way because producing a new mould for just 100 cars makes no sense.

I dont think this valve cover is replica.
Noone will make replica valve covers and sell about 10 in total worldwide.

I am about 99% sure that they are not replicas because I know how a replica product (for example a replica rim) looks like on Chinese online sale store. These looks real, and the seller is the official TRD distributor.

I am a little sad that there are a lot of replicas in the market but no one make any of these kit and sell to the United State.
.

Figo. Please let me know where I can find that engine cover and the door stills!

I saw last week Ken Gushi put the 14R rear bumper on his daily FRS here in the US. Saw a pic of it on his instagram.

Yes, however, my 14R bumper was directly from Technocraft in Tokyo Japan.
I have a close friend that works at Techno. I don't know how that website is able to sell 14R parts but i doubt that cover is fake as well.

Also, TRD Technocraft does ship their packages in rather odd boxes. Sometimes, they will ship the smallest parts in the biggest boxes too.

I actually don't have a price. These pieces are not sold to owners without a 14R or a 14R60 so I was not able to purchase it. That is why both my friend and I were shocked to see that Chinese website. Im going to ask him once more if his location in Tokyo is the only facility that ships out the 14R parts.

I just have a very close friend who works at technocraft. Sorry, as much as i would like to help fellow owners with these parts, I simply cannot.

Here are some photos. The silver ignition paint is such a pain to match since the sun actually baked the original color into a different shade of grey. But Mike at MV Designz did such a great job.
