I hear the Chirashi Special is amazing with a little fish sauce applied.

Inven was named after a member here. His real name was Inven Tory. Probably one of best bumpers out there... that was until Shane bought it and gayed it out with "Illest" stickers. Inven (the member, not the bumper) hasn't been around in a long time. He was a funny guy.

GReddy is simple. It's the sound the car makes when outfitted with the part (say it with a scruffy voice and change gears between the "double d's"

Kenstyle. Copied a dude named Ken. It's his style.

+1 good enough for me

Kuruma - It sounds Japanese so people might think it's JDM. Cost a grip because like the poster above said, they have to pay royalties to the Sushi place.

Inven - Invent w/o the T. Ever heard of the sayings, "dot my "I's" and cross my "T's". Well, these guys didn't invent anything, and their body kits don't fit right. You will need to bring your own "T" to make it fit. "T" is for tools. Such as sandpaper, rotary tools, duct tape, zip-ties and so on.

gReddy - Get ready to spend $$$.

Motordyne - We copy Japanese brands like HKS, Greddy and so on. Wasn't smart enough to come up with a Japanese name though.

iForged - Yes, we make fake rims that cost an arm and a leg. Copying many popular designs. You want it? I can forge it for you.

Kenetix - We play with legos and one day, my nephew made a little box looking thing that I thought looked cool. We slapped it on our G35 replacing the oem manifold, and to our surprised, it worked. It melted right afterword, so we decided to use stainless steel this time around. We also make intake and stuff in our garage.
