You can actually contact EBAY's VERO department and notify them of photos that have been taken/misrepresented/misused and they'll pull the auction. Chinese auction groups always steal Intellectual Property and that's one sure way to correct them.

I'm curious how the fitment and quality will be. Seems like this guy just came out of nowhere.

Actually, he's been at it for a while if you look at his feedback. But yeah, this specific product did come out of nowhere and is new to us coupe owners. I may be the guinea pig for this though.

the mattigs quality is disapointing, so go ahead and buy the replica....
(the mattig without a paintjob looks VERY VERY VERY cheap)

How much did you get the authentic one for? I was planning on painting it anyways so I guess I won't have to worry about it lookin cheap.

please dont buy anything from this seller, grille is just a piece of plastic. A CD case is stronger that what these grilles are made of.

the mattig quality isn't very refined, and i agree that the paintjob sucks... but it does feel fairly sturdy. (i still have to paint and mount mine)...
