I should have rephrased that. The most complicated GREDDY parts that they've ripped off are the intake manifold.
I've been to China several times for manufacturing support (engineering side). I work in the consumer industry and I've seen the copies that they rip off. I even know how to get to the SAMLUNG factory from HK.
No doubt they copy the hell out of things. Scary copies. The BMW X5 copy is the best!
