Title: Bound to happen..

I looks as though these clowns looked at the Feb issue of Ultra VW and tried to capitalize on the profits.. :P The tank clamps wouldn't even work properly. Let's see them try and copy the sill plates I made.. :D

Taiwan.  Good for cheap ass Harbor Freight tools, bad for ripping off other people's ideas.

You mean China.  Taiwan has at least some respect for patents.  China has none.

I spoke to the guy at Volksworld and even purchased a couple of bits, his stuff is actually nice quality and not the usual Taiwan stuff! He is a nice guy too.

Not sure what has gone on with product similarity but I know alot of his products have been developed over a long period. Apparently he was at the VW classic last year with his products.

Hope this can be sorted out responsibilly.

Rob.
