Found this on eBay, has anyone bought from this seller before? Looks legit, and price isn't that bad either.

AlienPrime has that knob, but I don't remember where he bought it.

Yeah I love it man! But these knobs go for ~$185 so kinda skeptical on finding one for half of that.

there are like 50 companies in china that wholesale these for around $30/piece in bulk.

The same seller is mentioned within the thread.

I got mine from the same place on EBay as AlienPrime did. It looks and feels great. A huge difference from stock.

awesome man, I also got the steering wheel and key cover. I wanted to get the whole set with the exterior emblems but I want to order emblem overlays from grfxp so I didn't want to get the emblems and run the risk of the overlays not fitting the emblems properly.

King Motorsports seems to think their Mugen knobs come in "Made in China" packaging.. maybe it is real.. you never know...

just got this image from Scott Zellener From KingMotorsports
If you look closely... you'd notice the pic says MADE IN CHINA
It's perfectly debatable that what ExoPart sells is genuine. Anyone who wants a fowards of that email from Scott at Kingmotor sports, email me, i'll forwards it to you

I talked to exopart about their products authenticity... they failed to respond when I brought up the replicas being sold.

that's a fair assumption. But from what i have seen, even if it is a replica i don't see a single bit of proof showing me that an authentic one would be any better. even the instructions are printed in japan all in japanese... there is nothing that prove that it was fake. Either way, feels great, looks awesome works fantastic, fake or not i love it

that's all that matters right? Not beat to pay $80 more for something that was made the same, looks the same, packaged the same, and WORKS the same. lol

AlienPrime bro I know you're in Canada but how long did it take you to receive your shift knob from him? He shipped mine already but Canada Post forgot to scan it I guess cause online it says they only received online shipping notification of it =[ it's been a week already, I'm impatient lmao Im dying to see how it looks in my ride.
