Default Best BANG for the Buck

After talking with a few of our clients about their opinion on the products they purchased I came to the conclusion that there are a few products out there that are worth the money and the time. These products may cost a little bit more than what people are looking to spend, but the reality is that for the price you pay, you are getting SO much more.

If you have a JDM product that you believe is worth every penny, whether it be a performance mod, chassis reinforcement, exterior or interior, please post it on this thread.

The goal of this thread is to help enthusiasts get a broader perspective of what JDM products are the "Best BANG for the Buck" and which ones aren't; also, if you acquired a JDM product and you cannot justify the price you paid for the results you experienced, please post that up as well.

Here are some of our clients' preferred products so far:

Amuse R1 Front Bumper:


Arrows Front Grille Duct:



Arrows Wide Fender:


ASM FRP Rear Duckbill Spoiler:


Backyard Special Low Mount Seat Rail:


Tracy Sport Final Gear Drive:


Tracy Sports TS-02 Exhaust Manifold:

I agree that the Amuse R1 front does parallel the features that are often found on an OEM front bumper.

The best factor about the Amuse R1 front Bumper is that it has an integrated front diffuser in order to add additional down force. Also, on the OEM S2000 front, the side ducts are simply black plastic, these ducts actually channel air to the brakes to help cooling which results in later, harder braking.

the apr is just the lip. Amuse has a under diffuser

PM's Sent.

In short, we have the ability to acquire anything of Japanese origin; just because you don't see it on our site doesn't mean we cannot get it. If you are curious about a JDM product, just PM, call or email me at your earliest convenience and I can definitely assist you.
