I guess i didnt explain it good enough before, the bumper you speak of
for
$200, yeah thats fake. notice the name of the kit? striker? thats not
real
drift my friend. I try to tell people over and over again the
difference
between real and fake kits. I GUARANTEE you that if you buy that bumper
that
is ONLY $25 cheaper that it will cost you AT LEAST $100 more to fit
than if
you bought the real one from us. our bumper is real so it has perfect
fitment, you can bolt it on yourself and drive to a paint shop, good
luck
trying that with the striker kit. I have to laugh at that, they dont
even
attempt to make the name similar to drift, usually the fake kits say
drifter,drifter style, drift style, they call it striker and steal the
pictures from streetweapon composites(the makers of drift.) who by the
way
went bankrupt! thats why i know who sells real drift, us
www.under-the-hood.com and www.importezine.com check out how much they
want
for the drift stuff, full retail, why? because no one else besides us
carries the real drift anymore.

besides the fact that our product is better quality,REAL and only $25
more
than the fake crap they are offering, how personable have they been to
you?
Seriously, you are talking to the owner of the company here, doubt you
would
be able to do that with the other company. We are a small company that
actually cares about our customers. And another issue, how long do you
think it will take for you to receive your bumper from them? 6-8 weeks
i
guarantee you. Our distributor has them in stock and will ship right
away,
truck freight will take about 4 weeks. Our distributor also offered to
bring
the bumper with him to the nopi nationals and you could pick it up
there in
september, no shipping charges. it must be paid for in advance though,
he
wont bring it if its not.

Anyway, im done throwing sunshine at you, you do what you want. If $25
is
what makes you go buy the fake kit, then so be it.

think he's just tryin to make a sale?
 
I'd have to say if I got an e-mail like that...I'd have to say #### off to the guy, then buy the "fake" bumper to spite him (which if it really exists it can't be fake can it?) just my opinion though
 
i like perfect fitment and putting it on myself though, plus its only a few extra bucks more... if it is better quality it was worth it, if its not... thats why they make the piss on decal guy.
 
no no no. Listen to him. When i had an RS and i bought a "blitz" kit i bought one of the cheap ones off ebay. The kit is slightly different then the actual blitz one but the design differences werent noticeable. Anyways the damn kit didnt fit. I had to pay to have someone put the rear bumper on and the side skirts had to be completely cut up and fixed. Also the body kits come in such shitty shape its sickening.

Go with the good kit. The guy is not full of shit.

thanks thats what im gonna do. anyone ever dealt with under-the-hood.com? the guy was really nice about everything i think.
 
I was just referring to the e-mail...that would have set me off with the tone he was using. If I was buying a body kit I would definitely go with the real thing as opposed to some knock off.
 
Buy the real kit, but dont buy it from that guy.

Nice grammar skills, the guy is an idiot, especially for being an owner of the company. Very unprofessional email.
 
There is no such thing as a "real" Mitsubishi Eclipse kit other than Bomex, Veilside, and a few other Japanese built kits (Rudora, and some others). 1G's have absolutely ZERO "real" body kits, that is to say, kits that were specifically designed for the car.

All other kits are hacks off of previously existing bodykits made to fit onto the Eclipse. The Blitz kit was merely a modified Supra front end, along with the C1 front, the "EVO" front with the foglights,, and all those cheezy side skirts that go halfway up with the air duct for the rear wheels.

Just a FYI.
 
Hes a prick. If it was me i would seriously email him back and tell him you have seen the "sunshine" but the rays arent gonna be shining on him. Neither will your money. Take your wad of cash and goto someone whos not a cocky ass like him.

If he was the owner of the company then he would know MORE about trying to BE NICE TO THE CUSTOMER and not BEING A COCKY PERSON.

Go see the light with someone else. Fawk him.

As much as I agree with your point, the whole Mastercard references are getting very tired and cliché.

But who doesn't like cheap body kits?
