Heh, If you can't do something original just copy everyone else and give it a new name. Good on them if they can make a go of it. Most shops like theirs last 1-2 years unless they are doing things for themselves more(ie. building frames/tanks from scratch)as there is only so much actual profit to be made from bolting together catalogue parts & charging for it and there are alot of places doing it. They are however smarter than most by making their prices more realistic so they should be able to build a decent customer base so they might just make it afterall. If they had a guy inhouse that built their frames/tanks for them they would definitely be onto a winning formula. Many new shops price themselves out of the market with the problem being if you charge $80k for an OCC style abortion you isolate yourself from the bulk of the market and people stop coming to get work done by you . Especially when ABC Choppers will frisco your tank for $200 instead of the $600 that DEF Choppers has been charging.
