The car in those photos was a past member from asia's car. He sold it.

Those pieces do look good. The weave in the CF looks good.

Pretty sure every single one of those bits is significantly more expensive than the RevoZport or Slek equivalent part...

Its likely due to volume size. Scorp is very late to the party. The 1M parts market is dried up. The cars were too limited and 1M specific parts don't really sell very much anymore. Vorsteiner and Akrapovich have ended their 1M programs and many other manufactures have stopped stocking their 1M stuff and instead make it to order.

I am afraid these prices will only make sense to local market in China and maybe in Hong Kong as well. It must be pretty expensive and maybe technically tiresome to import these kind of mod parts there so as a relatively new company they dare to put higher prices vs corresponding BMW Performance or Revezport pieces.

Most of these pieces are direct copies or VERY similar to what BMW and/or Revezport offered since some time, at least a strong "inspiration" is undeniable; so, yes they look great and maybe they are even higher quality in terms of material used or production but the motivation to put these (higher) price tags in to an already pretty much saturated market can not be that; it is because it makes more financial sense to buy them for Chinese clients and it is a big market in its own right.

This is how I see all this and don't get me wrong, there is nothing particulary wrong about it other than the fact that they won't have many (if any) international orders with these prices unless they start offering a few stuff that no one else offered before.

These parts are very Revozport inspired but are not recasts. I highly doubt they are higher quality than revozport which are some of the highest quality aftermarket CF parts I have ever seen in person. Im nearly certain the pricing has to do with their volume.
