Not good, not good at all. As one of AP Racing's biggest distributors in the world, we hate to see this type of stuff. It has the potential to harm the brand, but more importantly, to actually harm people!
As others have said, just make sure you're getting the genuine article before you buy. You should stick with trusted, reputable resellers who support and use the products they're selling, rather than just going for what appears to be the lowest price. That becomes especially important if you ever run into any problems, or simply need advice or support.
Finally, all of the AP Racing calipers we sell have serial numbers on their underside. You can see the first few digits on the AP Racing caliper below. The arrow is pointing at it. If you're unsure if you're holding a genuine article, you can contact us (
Essex Parts Services) to verify.
