Is there a W-body store vendor on this forum?

If so, Id like to call him/her out on something.

http://www.wbodystore.com/grandprix/...roducts_id=115
A TPR endlink kit, claimed to be superior to even poly bushings like Energy Suspension.

Ok thats great. But take a look at the picture they provide:


Now with that said, take a look at this picture of the MOOG swaybar endlink kit from Oreilly Auto Parts, you will have to go to http://www.oreillyauto.com and do a part # search for K5342 as it seems they wont let me hotlink it.


Wow...that looks like the same thing...except the first picture appears to have been reworked using Paint or some other program my 9yr old sister could use. Anyone else see a problem with selling the same product as something else for double the price? The pic has obviously been reworked, look at the color of the bushings, the two on the left are brighter consectively

Edited original post to help people find the pic. I guess its not as big a deal as I made it out to be, Ive calmed down since then, I was rather steamed at first. It just seems to me that theyre making it out to be something its not.

When I went to the Wbody store I saw a revolutionary product made by some place called TPR that was better than Energy Suspension. What I found out is that its made by MOOG, you can buy it at Oreillys for half the price, and TPR stands for thermoplastic...something that begins with R.
