Your serious? Umm a replica is a fake. Or as the dictionary says:

rep·li·ca /ˈrɛplɪkə/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[rep-li-kuh] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
–noun

1. a copy or reproduction of a work of art produced by the maker of the original or under his or her supervision.
2. any close or exact copy or reproduction.

It's a replica made by street concepts that Vegasboy also had on his evo. The real ones are made of some poly fiber stuff that are supposed to be stronger, and are supposed to fit better. Redline has the real deal, but doesn't seem to fit any better than the fake ones.

A guy across the business complex that I work has two black ones. They look pretty cool although where the exhaust exit is located there is no way you can put a hitch on it to tow stuff . Considering you're looking into an fast SUV have you looked into the Trailblazer SS's? Check this vid out.. SS vs SRT8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVCTo...eature=related

The SRT 8 is a nice choice, have always liked those. But like AWD said, a trailblazer SS would be awesome.

I'm lookin at getting a new laptop. I've been looking at this one. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1197073928749

what do some of you computer guys think? I like that it has a blu-ray player since I have a ps3 with about 30 movies. Also, the 3gb memory is pretty nice.

All my first comps were Dell. Don't know why or how I made the switch to HP but that's what my desktop is and I figured this is a good laptop.
