Does anybody else agree? I always seem to be able to tell when its an ERA. Not sure how but they seem to stand out.

On the SPFs the sidepipes are mounted a little higher.
The rear brace on the Lonestars have a bend.

I cannnot tell one from another in many cases, so I always ask the owner.

There's some really obviously different brands like the West Coast with exaggerated wide hips then there's the subtle little things like no dimple for front directionals. Keep studying there's lot's to learn and there will be a test!
