Genuine part or fake??

Hi team,

Firstly, I have emailed Whiteline to check with them, but thought I'd also check with the mod-guru's on Club Sub and get your opinion.

I ordered Whiteline rear endlinks from BNT last week, who had it shipped up from another office. Was told it was the 'last one in the country' (of their stock I guess), and it arrived the following day, sweet. The BNT guy quickly pulled it out of the packet when I went to pay for it. No dramas, I wasn't overly fussed in inspecting them at the time. BNT were friendly folk and gave good service. Got it home, but it wasn't quite what I was expecting.

The bushings are black. I was expecting typical Whiteline yellow as per their website pics (though I see they do some black bushings on other products). These black bushings seem a little 'average' in quality too.

The endlink themselves have serial numbers etched into them. From all the pics I see online no other Whiteline rear endlinks seem to have numbers stamped on them.

All a little sus, and got me thinking. Then I remember the package was already open too (neatly above the resealable zip-lock). It wasn't completely sealed (ie new) and had previously been opened. Could have been BNT guys to check it when it arrived for the right product or possibly a 'returned product' earlier.

Attached is what I receive (minus instructions not in photo), and a pic from the Whiteline website.

I've google the numbers etched into the links but didn't find anything.

My ultmate concern is they are knock-off items (that someone else swapped out and returned for the original), possibly the quality could be circumspect, and the fact I paid for a genuine product which it might not be.

Like I said at the start of post, I have emailed Whiteline but I'm still waiting their response.

Any ideas from the community?

Cheers

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
