I gotta watch it.
i did that type thing for about 2 weeks at my old job. the 2 weeks immediately following my 2 weeks notice. i practically changed my job title from "senior mechanical engineer" to "senior armchair quarterback".

It's not plastic. It's carbon fiber and yes they do make a knock off for the 06.


I couldn't live with myself if I had a knock off lip.

Good mroning all

Yeah, because it's okay to have knockoff parts that pretend not to be knockoff parts. Or something.

Who in the world names thier kid "Spyder"?

Spyder Dobrofsky, his younger brother and four friends tumbled out of his mother's Ford Explorer on a recent Sunday morning in Beverly Hills, sprinting down Rodeo Drive with video cameras in hand.

Anyone see the Wondershowzen episode where they had no show so they decided to go out and buy a knockoff show (Wondur Showzi) to play? Then a war between the reals and knockoffs broke out.

Buying genuine parts when there is an alternative that looks/performs exactly the same for 1/4 the cost is plain retarded... The only reason for that is to say "Oh i spent $1000 dollars on this JDM bumper, arent i cool?" Like buying a $15,000 rolex, nothing more than a status symbol a.k.a. small ***** compensation. Its not like its a knockoff turbo made in burma or something.

What's the point in buying Chronic... you can just buy Bammer... It will still get you high and is 1/4 of the price....?
