Nothing is happening, everyone is blowing this out of proportion, they are still going to sell HiDs and they will still honor the lifetime warrenty.

Seeing a nicely modded, tasteful G get parted out makes me sad.
Haven't committed to sell it (yet) - what price point would be reasonable though?

one the only thing this board mainly order are HID kits/bulbs. The coilover stuff is not for us.

Now who is to say all the other companies aren't doing the same crap. If you ordered 6k and got 5k, you will hardly notice nor care. Yea they lie on customs paper but who does that hurt really?

They have plenty of happy customers, like a said decent product at a decent service goes a LONG way in the any business. 90% of the no-name HID kits are made in the same factory just different stickers, its what the vendor does with the product that makes DDM better then the others.

I dont own or use any of their products yet but i do plan to. I've installed a couple of kits and bulbs for people and its all be issue free minus one guy bad wiring

If you are really low and have bad road conditions, you'll have more wear than if you were really low and had good road conditions. You also have to take spring rates into consideration. With higher spring rates, your shocks will travel less but also give you a rougher ride.

Aggressively lowering a car also puts pressure/stress on other OEM components (bushings etc) causing them to wear out quicker than being on OEM suspension.

Not sure if this helps answer your question or not
Appreciate the help. My guess is that slammed, soft dampening set coils would wear out the fastest.
