Counterfeit Tein

Post by ajflan »

I was just at Teins' website and I noticed that they were warning people about e-bay stores selling counterfeit springs. I was going to purchase mine from an e-bay store to save some money, now I am hesitant. Has any body heard about this? And should I buy my springs somewhere else?

Oh yeah, I wouldn't get Tein springs from ebay. I would get them from a reputable reseller like Brad from neverenoughauto: http://www.neverenoughauto.com...=1814

I had the fakes from Ebay. Luckily the seller gave me a refund including return shipping.
