Looks genuine to me going by the tial site. It has a serial no on top could be worth giving Tial a call to see if they can confirm the serial number matches the product.

I'd say it's real OR a good fake.

2 reasons: 1 look at the top,the one on ebay is the same as the REAL tial one
2,it does'nt look like it has the spindle looking thing that the fake has.

it looks pretty identical to the one on my car, even down to the details on the banjo bolt heads. I'd say it's a real one.

Don't think this is a fake. I have the same one on my 5.
