Fake Integra Type R emblem Ebay

Post by Type R » Wed Aug 23, 2017 9:59 pm

Ebay seller Gspinc14 is selling fake Integra Type R hood and trunk "A" emblems. He has sold over 800 of them. They are priced at $30 which is about half of dealer cost. I ordered two to compare to real ones and they are different in several ways. When I contacted the seller to inform them they were counterfeit they stated that they were told they were authentic when they purchased them from a government auction I'm sure in the future we will see more and more replica parts come to market. I just hope the sellers have the integrity to not pass them off as genuine

I wanted to see how bad these looked so I tried to look these up on eBay today and the seller Gspinc14 is no longer listed. Probably changes names pretty frequently. I also avoid any ebay listings from Thailand or China these days. China will counterfeit anything!

What were the emblem differences? Obviously quality. I'm just curious.

Would you mind posting some pics? I'd love to see the differences. There are plenty of OEM hook ups within our crew here that also offer pretty good discounts from MSRP pricing. eGhey is such a gamble. If it's too cheap then there is usually a reason.

Yeah, the packaging is a dead giveaway. Crazy how good fakers are getting with OEM stuff.
