What's sad is that their xB knock off actually looks better than the original.

So then why do people buy things like grounding kits, voltage stabilizers etc? If Toyota is so picky about their cars and the quality of parts and they know they can gain more HP and extra MPG by running a couple extra wires why don't they?
Toyota has never been picky other wise you would not see cheap flimsy plastic retainers and parts, piss poor paint quality and crash test rating less then 4 or 5 stars.
Toyota will have the CHEAPEST mfg make parts that are up to their standards plain and simple.
GWA does not build the entire car so they have to of deal with the othe mfgs and original companies to buy the rights to the rest of the cars.
Again GWA does not build this entire car in house, they import parts from other mfgs...

Just like the Kazuma and Hyosung lineups. Kazuma uses HONDA engines and the GY200 is almost acarbon copy of the XR200 Why? Because Honda has a large majority of it's products make by other chinese companies including Kazuma and their sister companies. Hyosung is the same.. They designed and build the engines and many other components for Suzuki And the Comet is almost a carbon Copy of thr SV650, But they did not copy them, they bought the rightsd fair and square from Suzuki to produce this bike. Don't think for a second the Suzuki or Honda do not make HUGE $$$ from clone companies...

Wow.. They actually managed to make the xB even uglier. Didn't think it was possible.
