Don't forget to take into account shipping. I was looking at those too, and with shipping it came to quite a bit of money. So I went to a local tuner shop, and it worked out to $50 less at the tuner shop than off ebay. Plus, the ebay hood is a 'no-name' product, and I'm getting a Seibon hood from my shop.

Check all your options before you commit to anything.

1) Breaking things is expensive, and
2) Horsepower isn't cheap.

Well I was including shipping...

It's still around $300 which is cheaper than anything else I've seen...

But if they are quality, I don't care what brand they are...

Cool. I didn't mean to sound like a jerk. I'm in Canada, so the shipping for me was alot more. If you wanna go for it, do it. I was just trying to make sure that all things were considered. Sorry.

Well, Canadian was $725, but I'm kinda getting sponsored, or something. I never asked him for a discount, but I'm getting it for $540 Canadian. Can't argue with that. All I'm really doing is letting other people know about his buisness. It's small, but he's a real great guy.

Anyhow, $540 Can is about $400 US. But it is a Seibon hood. Made in Japan, and shipped over. Should be here around May 15. I'll post pics of the fitment when I get it.

Yup. That's total price, all in. But like I said, I'm in Canada, so if you ordered from him, you'd probably end up paying duty or brokerage fees. Why not contact Jason at A+. I think they have a GB going on their website for CF hoods. At least going through someone like him, you have some recourse if it turns out to be junk fitment or such.
