Beware of Fake Voltex/GarageHRS Parts!!

Okay so it has been brought to my attention that some company is making copies of Voltex and GarageHRS products. When I actually had one of my representatives take a look at the kit, it was in horrible condition. The kit would actually fall apart in your hands.

For any of you that were looking to buy any Voltex or GarageHRS exterior products, I would like to inform you that every piece is made to match the quality of the OEM parts, so no gaps, no thin/breakble material, no shortcuts, and absolutely NO FLAWS.

This announcement is to warn the public to make sure you are not being fooled into buying fake products. All GarageHRS and Voltex products are now stamped with a full product VIN number.

Also if anyone has seen these kits, or know who is making them, please let us know. We at J-OnDemand have made a patent for the US chapter of GarageHRS and Voltex, and GarageHRS and Voltex in Japan also have a full patent for all of their products. All of the GarageHRS and Voltex products have copywirte protection in both the US and Japan.

Thanks for your time!

Best Regards,
- The J-OnDemand Team

I'm a little confused on what exactly is patented with these products?
You can't patent a product.

That really sucks. Honestly though, it was bound to happen. So many original kits have been copied.

What does that have to do with patenting stuff?

If I make something like a bumper, I can't patent it. You don't patent products.
