Juliet ID help - Authentic or Fakey?

[tripper688]

I am absolutely not a fan of supporting the fake market…but often lament that these people doing fakes can’t channel their efforts into a legitimate quality replica parts replacement biz like the good folks at Linegear.

Honestly, I don't get why people don't have this mindset more often. Like if you're doing quality work, set up shop and do your thing. I guess there's just not enough of an actual downside to doing stuff like this :/

They look like painted real ones. Torx screws? Weight?

Everyone’s is calling these fake, can you get clearer pictures of the arm and back of nose piece

tell for me is the shape of the arms on the inside. never seen that flat part besides on a squarestem r1. then there is the icon that we cant see looks bulged. then the nosebridge looks too clean and symmetrical and slightly molded pins. as you know js with age would have saggy or slightly crooked/off nosebridge to orbital gaps.

then again it could be the pics. there is a .01 chance they are legit. lol

Rootbeer was the color of the rubber.

I was only joking. I would never mix X-metal titanium parts with anything lesser. Even if it was a spot on replica part.

That is actually a good point…which I was not considering. I doubt any replica company would ever produce out of titanium and the interaction could have less than optimal outcomes…

I have never seen fakes with rivets and torx screws.

Agree. but can you see rivets and Torx screws? Better pictures would definitely help; these are so close to real, though, probably the best I have ever seen.
