Am gonna buy this. Is this fake or real? Maybe some 1st gen braces were made like this, what do you guys think??

- Sun Dec 11, 2011 5:16 am #285002 yaaa i saw that article, that's why was wondering. But also heard 1st gen braces looked like those. Anyway any idea how good/bad these would be?

- Sun Dec 11, 2011 7:50 am #285008 The one you posted looks just like mine does. I bought mine in '07 before there were fakes http://www.civic-eg.com/viewtopic.php?t=956

(I painted mine darker, it did look just like the one you pictured.)

- Sun Dec 11, 2011 9:07 am #285009 Yup, 1st gen ones looked like that, fakes look the same, that's why am a bit confused. But anyway I might end up buying this coz my original plan was to make a brace, which would end up worse than a fake so.. lol

- Sun Dec 11, 2011 9:08 am #285010 so teal_dx, how is your setup holding?? Is the brace and the sway bar still on the car?

- Sun Dec 11, 2011 1:46 pm #285017 Just shell out the cash for a legit new one why take the chance of buying a fake

- Mon Dec 12, 2011 2:09 pm #285097 I've seen a fake one before where the entire middle of the "ASR" letters were CNC'd instead of just the outline of the letters.

I still have mine on the car, holding up great.
