it doesen't, buying fake wheels is okay if your on a tight budget or whatever the case may be, but the arguement is not trying to pass them off as the real deal.

This... I'll be stuck in ebay land for a while... But thats not to say I won't be choosey... I know what to buy cheap and what not to buy cheap... Plus, I just don't understand spending 250 on a front lip thats gonna get cracked and damaged when I can get one for like 20 bux shipped made of poly on ebay...

the last two $20 lips i got from ebay were trash. it's a crapshoot trying to get one that's decent quality IMO.

but if you take care of it, it wont get cracked and damaged. You just have to watch out for stuff on the road and what not. You're not paying for a name. You're paying for something of a higher quality. Those 20$ lips probably fit like ass compared to the real thing.
