Yeah, as far as I can tell you have to buy those things.
The good news is that you get like 1,000 or something like that for 99¢ US so it's really not that bad.
Warning though - if you upgrade implants you lose the upgrades if you switch them out from one pilot to another . Unless, that is, you spend some purple sperm on them (I have no idea what they call those things) to retain either 30% of your upgrades or 100% .
And it also costs A-coins too do that .
So be careful

This statement sounds so similar to "we're working on it to fix the matchmaking", does it mean that you guys gonna need some more data to "ANALYSE THE BALANCE OF EARNING IMPLANT PARTS FOR FREE"? and this causing delays and MORE PROBLEMS?
