Sema Chinese manufacturer busted

Might stop it there, but how will they stop online sales through FeeBay and other online retailers? We all know about Chinese knockoffs, and some will buy them anyway because of the price... And in reality, a lot of Omix stuff isn't much better, as you noted.
 
The only thing that will stop this completely is a culture change amongst Jeepers. Buy fewer, higher quality parts that are made domestically.... Tires, springs, shocks, fender flares....


 
Probably came from the same plant that makes their Rugged Ridge stuff???

Quite possible. I understand it is common practice for factories in China to sell product out the front door to a legit customer and sell the same identical product out the back door to whoever they can. Guess that's the risk you take when outsourcing production to the equivalent of slave labor. I wouldn't lose any sleep over their "losses"...
