When shopping for classic car and truck parts online, it’s important to know who you’re buying from. Classic Performance Products, Inc. has built its reputation by supplying quality brake, steering, and suspension components for classic cars and trucks. Unfortunately, counterfeit and misleading websites sometimes try to take advantage of that reputation by pretending to sell CPP products.
These sites may use CPP product names, photos, descriptions, or part numbers to make shoppers believe they are buying genuine Classic Performance Products parts. In reality, the parts may be counterfeit, misrepresented, poor quality, or may never ship at all.
Why Counterfeit CPP Product Listings Are a Problem
Counterfeit websites are more than just an inconvenience. They can create serious issues for builders, installers, and vehicle owners.
When you buy from an unauthorized or suspicious website, you may receive parts that:
* Are not genuine CPP components
* Do not meet CPP quality or fitment standards
* Are made with inferior materials
* Do not include proper instructions or hardware
* May not fit your vehicle correctly
* Could create safety concerns
* Are not covered by CPP support or warranty
* Do not meet CPP quality or fitment standards
* Are made with inferior materials
* Do not include proper instructions or hardware
* May not fit your vehicle correctly
* Could create safety concerns
* Are not covered by CPP support or warranty
* A lot of these sites are phishing sites, and they only want your CC info; they literally have no products, and they never intend to ship any products.
For brake, steering, and suspension parts, quality matters. These are not cosmetic accessories. They are critical systems that affect how your vehicle stops, steers, handles, and drives.
How Fake CPP Websites Try to Trick Customers
Counterfeit sites often look convincing at first glance. They may copy product photos, use familiar part numbers, or list CPP-style descriptions. Some may even advertise prices that seem too good to pass up.
Common warning signs include:
* Extremely low prices compared to normal retail pricing
* Poor grammar or strange wording throughout the website
* No clear business address or phone number
* No real customer service contact information
* Unfamiliar website names pretending to be associated with CPP
* Product photos copied from other websites
* Checkout pages that feel suspicious or unprofessional
* No return policy, warranty information, or company details
* Pressure tactics like fake countdown timers or unrealistic discounts
* Poor grammar or strange wording throughout the website
* No clear business address or phone number

* Unfamiliar website names pretending to be associated with CPP
* Product photos copied from other websites

* Pressure tactics like fake countdown timers or unrealistic discounts
....... If a deal looks too good to be true, it probably is.
Genuine CPP Parts Come From Trusted Sources
The safest way to buy authentic CPP parts is through the official CPP website or an authorized CPP dealer.
Official CPP website: classicperform.com
When you buy genuine CPP products, you know you are getting parts backed by CPP’s engineering, fitment knowledge, product support, and customer service. You also get access to real installation information, accurate application data, and support from people who understand classic car and truck builds.
Why Genuine Parts Matter
CPP components are designed for specific applications and tested to work as part of a complete system. Whether you are upgrading disc brakes, installing tubular control arms, converting to power steering, adding a HydraStop hydraulic brake assist system, or improving your suspension, the right parts matter.
Counterfeit or imitation parts may look similar in a photo, but that does not mean they are built the same. Differences in material quality, machining, geometry, hardware, brackets, or finish can affect fitment and performance.
That can lead to problems like:
* Poor alignment
* Brake pedal issues
* Steering interference
* Suspension bind
* Premature wear
* Installation delays
* Unsafe driving conditions
* Brake pedal issues
* Steering interference
* Suspension bind
* Premature wear

Saving a few dollars upfront can end up costing more in the long run.

1. Check the website URL carefully. Make sure you are shopping from the official CPP website or a trusted authorized dealer.
