Primery Designs all day every day..... the quality is just unbeatable imo (and i've seen a few cheap alternatives that are just shite).... and if anyone thinks that HKS will do a "cheap" alternative they 'd better look at HKS jap products and then think again

Is it Stainless , i guess not at that price....

My experiance with the mild steel ones is that they have a limited life span...

any comments ?? as if they are lasting well we can offer our customers these as an alternative......
