So everyone knows that there are tuning and performance shops all over Korea when it comes to tuning. They obviously get really cool parts or have them made that other parts of the world would never see. Those of you who have been to Korea and seen these shops, what kind of rare parts did you see they have that we dont have here in the US?

The Turby sideskirts and air rams are the only thing that comes to mind really.

Didnt some Koreans also have electric folding mirrors on the RD series too? I thought I remember hearing about alot of shops over there having them in stock but didnt sell them to owners in the states. There were alot of body kits offered in Korea also that you couldnt get in the US unless you knew someone specifically that could get it ship it. MaierApril's RD comes to mind with his kit.
