Score one for ebay

[joesiris]

Now I wouldn't really purchase parts for my FiST on ebay, but I was actually looking for hotwheels cars based off our model and I ran into these. It was only ten bucks and I know its nothing big or flashy but it fits like it was meant to be there. Its funny how a little something so small can be so fun. The material used is quite good (similar to the plastics already on the car) and it sticks on with 3m tape. Call me easily amused but I like it... just wanted to share.

it's the little things that make your car "your" car, right? Check out the thread on mods under $100. These are listed in there, along with some other neat stuff.

Can you post the eBay link? I saw one guy had 98% shipping from China I think

I wish it was brushed and not chrome.

What disqualifies things on EBay ? A number of name brand vendors on there.

I recently picked up both of these, probably for way cheaper than what you guys are finding on amazon or ebay. They take about a month to arrive, but they show up just fine and are exactly the same as the part OP pictured.

I guess my experience with performance parts from ebay has left a sour taste in my mouth... I had an oz lancer I was working on and was going cheap, and some of the parts (like the intake) were not as listed, but true ive seen some reputable vendors selling stuff on there. I guess I'm not super opposed to the idea, I would just do a better job researching the seller and reading all the comments first
