Question Anyone Tried Megan Racing PINK Rear Control Arm?

Anyone tried Megan Racing rear control arm?
They r relatively cheap, which are lower than $400 for both, and in PINK!
I actually like them.
So whats the difference between these and those $600 Cusco control arm?

Where they are made, how they are designed, the quality of materials used is where the price difference comes from.

I was a sponsored driver of Megan Racing in 07-08. Their products have really improved over the last few years. Although I wouldnt use their shocks, the hard parts are more then durable and I wouldnt hesitate to use them.

We've got a set of those in stock, I think the pink color is really smart by them, everyone uses the same old boring colors.

Those are just the color I'd want under my car...

Think I'll stick w/ my silver/blue GT Specs for now though.

They are a decent unit. We just got some in as well.

SPC is even cheaper and gets the job done as well.

IMO, This blue looks a lot better. The Pink kinda looks Flashy and Ricey for me.
But it'll always depend on your taste.
And it terms of quality, it seems their decent enough as per others opinion.
