Default Any company planning a full line of Aftermarket parts???????

Is it just me or does it seem like every other tuner car has a company that makes every mod for it... Like for instance Skunk2 makes almost every mod you could possibly do to your honda. Or greddy makes everything for the 300z. I am just wondering will there be a point were a company will make every part for the car? (i.e. suspension, exhaust, engine components, pulleys, sway bars, etc.)

I realize that it doesn't make it run better if its all from one company... but I like the look when every thing is embossed with the same logo and looks uniform.

The only company that I have found that makes a decent amount of prodcuts for the tC in a wide range of fields is Megan Racing, but they don't put their logo on anything which makes it look very clean. However, that defeats the purpose of what I am looking for.

I guess what I am asking is there a company that is planning to make exhaust (i.e. catback and header), suspension (i.e coilovers, strut bars, sways bar, front tie bar), engine parts (i.e. pulleys, stainless steal tank replacements, dress up parts, etc.)?

Honestly man if you sacrifice convenience like that for one company, your not going to get max potential from your tC, or any cars for that reason. Different companies have different research levels and funds available.

If your going bolt on, check my profile that's some of the best you can get. All of it has been DYNOED together, I have more stuff on my manual tC than listed.

It's the same concept as in going to wal mart and buying all your stuff.
Wal Mart shopping for car parts last time, I think I wasn't to pleased with the plastic spinners.

The last time I checked, I think wal mart is also a capitalistic ____ faced monster.

Skunk2 doesnt make everything for Honda........ although they do cater to Honda cars. I find it more fun to "mix and match" some things. Lets say 1 company makes I/H/E for the tC. Then things become predictable.
As of now, you cant really compare the Honda aftermarket w/ the Scion aftermarket either b/c Honda aftermarket has been booming since the early 90's. But being that Scion hasnt been around for too long, I think Scion has an excellent aftermarket.
