BEWARE OF eBay SCAMS
I was looking at some forums on Focus Fanatic, and I ran across this. It is pretty interesting if you read the whole thing.
Why I try not to eBay
Not to be a dick, but, if your like me, your a car guy that knows how motors work and you snicker when you see posts like this...or posts that inquire about these ebay performance mods.
There are good deals to be had out there, you have to know what your after and not want an alternative

i got h and r coilovers on ebay, i got them for $700, and i didnt get all the parts. so i am never going to buy anything that is alot of $ off of ebay ever again!!!
i bought alot of stuff from ebay for my old integra... only brand name stuff, not some knock offs.... i also check out background and feedbacks on the sellers before i bid or buy... i have not had any probs wit the bay, hopefully knock on wood.....
