Those are the knock off tanabes. I'd stay away from them. I think a member on here ordered a set and when he got them you could see the welds in the tips and they were all scratched up. Try searching and you should find it.

Here's the review thread on it. http://myg37.com/forums/intake-and-e...1-exhaust.html The pics speak for themselves. But I guess if you just want a different sound, and dont care much about fit or finish give it a shot. Just remember, you get what you pay for.

you can buy my megan lol. sounds good. i just want a full CB

You can get some good deals on parts on ebay but you have to be very cautious. I wouldn't buy any knockoff parts from ebay becasue like most knockoffs you'll get anywhere, the very best you can expect is that you'll get what you pay for but you might not even get that. I'd consider ebay for some things I guess, but not for that exhaust. Buy a genuine part form a respectable seller.

^+1 on stuff that is small you might be able to get away with ebay, but IMO it's just better to spend the extra money to get it somewhere that you KNOW is gonna deliver what you want. Better to pay a little extra and get it right the first time

G37Sam · 09-20-2009, 12:29 AM

That's one big gamble IMO

I wouldn't be surprised if you had to trim your bumper to make those fit right lol

SOLISIMO · 09-20-2009, 06:38 AM

to the op read my review on that exhaust, it sounds great but and a big but.... well just read

Slammed37S · 09-20-2009, 05:13 PM

i read solisimo's thread and yeah the fit and finish was bad but maybe they sent u a prototype? just trying to give them the benefit of the doubt since their 350Z and G35 market look pretty good for the money. They also have a 7 day money back guarantee. I might give it a shot. It's cheap and they look like the tanabe's which is the look that i want.

wakeboardr116 · 09-20-2009, 05:48 PM

If you wanna give it a try, go for it. You never know until you try.

SOLISIMO · 09-20-2009, 05:55 PM

Give it a try even after I did and it was all focked up, soo much for reviews

I cant possibly imagine where you got the idea that his was horrible because it could have possibly been a prototype, but let us know how that works out for you if you buy one. Please post pics of the fit and finish for the rest of us to learn from your experience.

Thats what Im saying, Im done cheaping out on this car. So what your saying is that reviews are pointless bc one can always say, well maybe it was just that one they sent him

LMAO @ 7 day money back guarentee. By the time it ships and you put it on and decide to take it off 7 days will have passed.
