Better be careful about this one...

Judging from the enlarged photo of the FMIC kit, you can see the name of the company that makes it is stamped on the top part of the FMIC itself.

X* P**** has been mentioned many times on SXOC and whilst I want to retain integrity of this forum by not directly slagging any company off, the short answer is that it's cheap for a reason.

There have been complaints recently concerning an exhaust bought for an S14 which was advertised as being a proper fit for the car but upon fitting, the buyer learnt the hard way.

Also, even if parts fit ok, it might not last as long as one would expect. Again, prices can affect the quality of materials used etc.

Lots of owners here use the Apex FMIC kit and seem really happy about the fitment and quality.

Cheers for the help guys I thought it might have been a good buy for the price and thought it would be a good idea to share it just incase.

P.S can you fit the apex fmic kit and still have the fog lights in the aero bumper?

Saying that, Apex get quite a few of their 'own brand' parts from the same factory. That's not saying they are the same spec though...
