Chinese Knockoff Products

I found this on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tchlink:top:en



I like TRD fender insert but they are too pricey..



The TRD inserts are around $600-$700, which is ridiculous.

And these knockoffs are $88+$30=$118. I think they are made in Taiwan, China.



Update1:

These are atcually better. The carbon fiber one cost ¥1350+shipping fee, which is about $250. Others that made by different material are a lot cheaper.

Update2:

And there are a lot of interesting products that you cant find them in the United States.





Thes floor mat can be customized to any color.



.

Update3:


Update4:

This is like about $600 shipped to US. RHD only.









Update5:

I post this in another thread before.
armrest, about $ 50.
Can be customized to any color.
But it looks terrible.



Update6:

These emblems are about $15.


About $13-14

Thank you.

I saw some DIY for CF surface online, but just dont want to do it myself.

I knew for some bad clear coat or bad work, the surface will turn yellow or become rough in a few months.

These inserts do not actually need clip right? I think 3m tape will be enough..

I might ask my friend to bring a pair for me. This product is made in Taiwan, China. And it is for sale at taobao.com, which is a website that only sell products to China. Theres a way to find a intermediary to buy products from them. However, it wont be cheap unless you buy alot.

You can wait I think. You might be able to see them on aliexpress.com in a few months probability. This is a website that sell Chinese products to worldwide. Might take less than a month to ship it.
