i just picked up a set of "GP Sports" side skirts and rear skirts. they were straight off another S2K and i was unable to see fitment on said car to determine anything. as i examined them more closely and did some searching it seems as though they are more than likely the "spugen" replicas from parts helper. I have already contacted bulletproof and parts helper and am currently waiting for a response to see if they can provide me with any helpful info. So my question is how can i determine if they are indeed replicas or real. they are already painted and have very slight scuffing were they fit inside the door. they seem to line up to the body "ok". id give fitment on my car with out any fastening down of any sort a 6 out of 10. i read that fitment of authentic ones were 10 out of 10. Any one who has had replicas or the real deal please throw in your 2 cents. thanks you.

 

C'mon guy, use the words "knock-offs"

 

ha i thought replicas sounded professional.

have a pic by chance??

 

If you didn't trade your first-born child for it AND wait at least a year for it, then it's not real JDM!

 

aw man, ...depressing

 

You can tell it's fake if you have some money left in your wallet. If it fits well, and looks good, who cares?

 

Usually authentic parts have some sort of company logo sticker on the inside, but many companies don't include one. Fitment is always an issue with aftermarket body parts, authentic or not.
