So when u ask "how much is it" they'll be like "ummmm..uhh..600" they just throw up offers. There wuz this one guy, i think his name wuz isaac and he wuz a kool guy with alright prices.
The only thing ive bought from them is a jdm plate, paid 60 bones for it but i dont give a **** cuz its one of a kind....it says 90-91...and i have an ef *sigh* i love that plate

I have been there twice.
First time by myself and second time went with a couple guys on the board. I had my eyes on an EK5 bumper with Raybrig OEM yellow foglights. No lip and I didn't want the regular grill. I also told the guy I wanted the OEM switch and he said fine. 300 for everything.
So I went home and thought about it, came back again and was still looking at that thing. Price still firm, 3 bills and then he said he won't sell cause someone has already ordered the entire front clip....
It is the same thing with other business. If you are their kind (ethical background) I am sure you will get an awesome deal. If there were Chinese, maybe I could talk my way out of it.
But those Raybrig fogs just looks so frigging delicious...

That is soo true.
The only importer's I've dealt with was Toyko Auto Parts. Same sorta deal, lots of USDM and JDM parts. The guy I dealt with was very good and gave me a great deal, however the other guy that worked there helped my buddy who was interested in a JDM DSM motor. The guy that worked there didn't know jack **** about the motor and kept saying, its JDM, while the motor was all ****ing dirty as hell and the guy didnt even know how many km or compresion numbers the motor has.
People can't just say "Pulled from a running car", you need somesort of documentation to prove that.
(Matt, I got your email, tell your dad thanks a lot and I'll be grabbing the 901's)
