I get what everyone is saying here, spend money towards the right guys because Wise-FAB is legitimately looking to help our community. (I personally %100 love their work) However, knock offs are already in the works. A few dudes with CNC machines posted all over the country are working on their own sets. I see these posts randomly on my FB feed, but I don't have enough time to search for more information.
Keisler Automation offers a full CNC'd kit for Miatas right now, and currently working up a S-chassis setup. All the butthurt dudes on here are mad about nothing. This is how our market works, someone takes an established great idea and changes it just enough to make it their own. Argue it as much as you want, then get mad at everyone who has a smart phone and didn't offer up $600 for a iPhone.

Building your own is one thing, taking someones design and reverse engineering it, copying it and marketing it as your own is another.
iPhone is your comparison? There were others way before apple ever even conceived the iPhone. Microsoft has been in the smartphone business far longer then Apple.

I bet there is a lot more different there then just looks. Oh wait there is a lot more going on, WF is a 1pc LCA/Tension rod, the other is not.
