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.

The official TRD distributor from Taobao.com(Biggest online sale website) sell the kit. They need to be pre-ordered. The lead time is about 3 months.

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! :wub:

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.
