sounds to me like you got sour grapes andy !
i can assure you i do not need to copy anything you sell mate ,
everything we sell is made here in the uk , it may be a copy of an imported item but the item you get from us is 100% made by us and to prove it i will put a link up to every single site i know that sells modified wheels and bodykits as i know we will still be cheaper.
with regards to the decals good luck to you as quality is about what you know and not what you spend!!!!
i do remember you buying a mk2 broadspeed kit from us and if we were worried about people copying it we wouldnt have listed it in the first place.
so good luck with them too mate .
as for the guys on here they know i make my own stuff as i have reproduced items for a few people on here that have broken things on there models and i have supplied copies of the items they send me.

DIDNT THINK SO
didnt need to come to this but one thing i dont like is people thinking they have a god given right to look down on people who are grafting the same as you are .
we started selling bits to provide a service to those who had trouble finding what they needed and were getting ripped off from sites abroad we never had any intention of competing with anyone and have never had a dig at any ebay sellers on here .
i have always been a fan of the stuff you and streetfighter do as well as everyone else who builds modified models .
i love the challenge of building the models i make not the money they make
