Voltex Style Rear Diffuser ?!?!?!?!?

Well I got this off a Vendors blog we will leave the Vendor unamed but it seem as if there are someone knocking off a Rear Diffuser From Voltex, which really sucks that there are these substitute for the real things being sold everyday to car fanatics claiming that it works just like the original, fitment is 99.9% but the other .1% requires a body shop to install it really sucks (Hoods, Fenders, Body Kits etc...............). Well sorry now im just venting about all the bad experience ive had or seen friends loss there hard earn money on there so called the best fitting replicas around but here the pictures and you guys can be the judge of it, and if there a debate if it was real or not the Vendor that posted the pixs already verified that it a exact replica of the Voltex rear diffuser!!!!!!!!

it might be a different story when you try to go put it on oddly enough the Vendor sells the knock off but runs the real one on their shop car

I wouldn't knock it till someone has one and verifies if it fits like crap or not. Some
people who love the look of the diffuser but don't track their car this would be
perfect for, hell it would probably work for those who do track time. Not everyone
can spend 600-700 on a rear diffuser. It would be stupid though to buy a replica
for less only to spend just as much to make a body shop to get it to fit. I guess I'm
trying to say there would be a market for this product, if it fits well for a decent
price. Those who want true voltex will still buy true voltex....this maybe good for
everyone else.

i second that. also i agree with mike01gsr. this market is flooded with companies that replicate and distribute parts. i know people that work in the industry and they tell me some of the biggest companies are these types of companies. it is unfortunate and sad but its reality. Look at all the body kit companies and carbon fiber companies out there. extreme dimensions, vis racing, seibon to name a few. they all copied other products and now they making lots of $$$. Probably even more then the companies that originally released the product. That shows that there is a huge market for these replicated products. These things are going to happen whether we like it or not. For those of us that want to rock the real thing we will buy VOLTEX. But not everyone has the money or feel its necessary to get the same part for a higher price so they will buy the knock-off.
