No..the guy asked why American headers are so much expensive and I explained it. I explained about a zillion times that it is exceedingly expensive to get a design patent on something as limited production as a header. Even more expensive to enforce. And you think headers cost alot now? I really don't care if someone wants to make headers in China..just design your own stuff. Don't steal the design of a product I sell, make inferior copies, and then expect me to sit on my hands while people pimp it as the greatest thing since sliced bread. Bottom line is, these are the fake Rolex of the header world. Maybe they fit, and maybe they tell time...maybe whoever bough them thinks they are a baller gaming the system and saving money. Does not mean it's right.

We live in a global market and while your argument is noble its also not going to change that fact.
You claim OBX stole from Kooks, why doesn't kooks sue them? Prove it in a court of law, not on here. Vanilla ice stole from queen, but I bet you still listen to ice ice baby at a party....I do...lol.
Again, this could be debated till the end of time. Its not going to change anything, the point of this thread was so I could let other members know I was happy with purchase. People are going to buy what they feel best suits them. That's the whole purpose of a free market.
