ralliart grilles on ebay...are they legit?
I bought mine from that guy and I find it hard to believe it is a knockoff at all.
All the mounting points looked just like the grill I had on there before....same design...Mitsubishi like you know

Umm no it is not. And your ralliart argument doesn't stand up either because it says ralliart because it is from a ralliart badged japanese-only sedan. It is cheap, relatively, because it is a product that is NOT used or promoted by the Ralliart race team. It is made in mass quantity overseas and is standard issue, hence the reasonable price. They dont come from taiwan they come from the japanese car dealers via people like Murasama who have family over there and have the patience to set up legitimate group buys to get these things over here.
I have one and its got a legitimate part number and was painted the factory color, it is not taiwan, ROK, or china. Its japanese and I would suggest that you research stuff before you shoot your mouth off about things that are fairly common knowledge to us regular lancer owners.
I got my ralliart grille from Ebay, from japanparts. and it was legit. I love my grille, and so does everyone who lives around me. makes my car that much more sporty. but yeah,. mine was $149, FREE shipping and already painted. took 9 days exactly!

I just wanted to make sure that people understand it isn't true Ralliart stuff.

Can you explain why a set of Evo mudflaps goes for $320?

Mudflaps Price; Parts are molded rubber and any part where the manufacturer has to make a mold tends to be expensive; plastic, rubber or metal
EJEvo: (Nice site, BTW!) Thanks for your prompt amendment; I have no objection to what is posted about us or the products we handle as long as what is posted is TRUE Please feel free to verify anything with me direct if you have any questions or need advice of any parts application, authenticity, whatever
All we sell are New, Genuine and Japanese domestic model parts; no knockoffs, no bs and very competitive pricing; as has been pointed out on this thread the "Group Buy" price for this part was US$210.00 and I don't see anybody else offering these Grilles for US$149.95 delivered, correct me if I am wrong(!)
I can 100% understand that your are used to marked-up local pricing and that you might easilly develop the mistaken conclusion from the price that these parts are fakes; (they aren't) in fact by cutting out the middleman and taking advantage of our volume discounts we can offer the grilles to owners in USA and Canada for that price, make a few bucks a Grille, and then everyone is happy
Everyone but our competitors perhaps...
Sorry to growl at ya; just not fair to our customers on the Forum who have bought these in good faith off of Ebay
