Just picked up a fake JDM knob. To my surprise it looks pretty good for a replica piece, especially if I compare side-by-side with my genuine one:

Can you spot which is fake and which is the genuine one? Keep in mind there's a cad $185 difference in price between the two.

Here's another pic. Now of the top. I didn't post this first cus it's a dead give-away with the writing.

I hope all of u can tell which one's real by this picture!

For those who got it right, you get to have dinner with one of the mods, and the mods will pay for it. Right, mods?

so the right is real eh?

how come u bought a fake if you have the real one?

 

[GreenLude]

Well seeing how you have a fake one you should send me the real one.

 

[lOOkatme]

I had no clue from the side knob and even the fake knob from the top is pretty damn good!

 

[Jspec81]

wow-the differences are very subtle. Either one could be the fake, although the one on the right has a smoother texture.

 

[k.alexander]

hey can someone tell me where and for how much i can buy a fake one from?
thanks

[Mr.RiceAdvisor]
