I agree. I mean, interior mods or cosmetic mods, sure I'll put them on if I got em from ebay, but not mechanical stuff, especially since the sensors on our cars or so friggin sensitive.

That's retarded. It doesn't matter where you buy something, as long as you know what you're looking at.

My Hotchkis front strut tie bar, TRD rear sway, and CF engine cover are all off eBay. There are car dealerships, and major auto parts suppliers that sell on eBay frequently.

Just don't put knock-off, or no-name parts in your car.

I don't know... $225 for header and spipe (at least, in the pic)? That's less than half any current header/pipe combo. And could anyone else find any info on OBX actually making this now? B/c I haven't seen a thing.

Looks great and I'm sure it performs well. The only problem is that the S-pipe goes from 2.5 to 2.25 inch at the middle weld. That's not good if you have a 2.5" exhaust.
