Some people own cars that do not have a large aftermarket, and sometimes BC/Kido/Megan are the only options when it comes to looking for coils.

Currently on the FX the companies listed above are the only choices for coils, and there are countless FX owners all over NA running them without any issues.

Sure a nice set of Ohlins or AST or other high end brand would be nice, but then again we all want to own a set of HRE's or COR wheels as well. But most people are running reps or cheap asia manufactured wheels as well...

Also there are a few shops that rebuild coils locally, at the end of the day they are coilovers, the pieces that go into them are not too darn specialized, they can be sourced and replaced. Its not rocket science, its a suspension system.

Pretty well everything you buy today comes from China/Asia, so what difference does it make if your coils come from there?
