Wow. I hate Instant Gentlemen, but it seems to be a fanboy favorite. I'm not looking forward to seeing tons of nasty fitting knockoff SuperMade kit 240's running around... bleh.

I think he may have been saying that it is probably made by some chinese company that CHASER buys it from. Just like ISIS and MEGAN.

Doubtful, since it's expensive.

I think you're thinking of [insert common S-chassis aero kit name here].

If I were swapping the kit on my droptop, the authentic IG kit would be one of the ones I'd consider.

The whole ziptied Origin Aggressive knockoff wannabe driftcar bell-bottom look is SO 2002. (...and yes, I count my car in that group as well).

Nah, I meant that the fanboys are always ranting and raving about the I.G. kit, not that most can afford it. But if Chaser is making cheap knockoffs, the fanboys are gonna go nuts over it.

So is that whats happening here? Is Chaser making/selling a knockoff kit or are they just distributing legit SuperMade aero? Seeing as how 'SuperMade' and 'Instant Gentleman' is no where to be found on the advertisement, I'm gonna assume it is indeed a knock off.

Oh... I just saw the link for the picture... I didn't see a price. Yep, that's bargain basement, Knock-off Central pricing.
