    Carbon fiber side blades

    Has anyone purchased these from this ebay seller?

    The pictures aren't great and they don't look installed correctly, I'm curious about the quality and fitment.

    No experience but can tell you this is coming from China.
    I have purchased a few things from EBay (China sellers) and I've gotten what I've ordered it just took a very long time and tracking was impossible.

    I'm looking for side blades but in black and can tell you I'm only looking for US sellers. I think you can find a better deal with cheaper shipping...they want $100 for shipping that's just nuts.

    I've shipped a 12" IDMAX sub woofer to my buddy 2 day mail for $25 and that damn thing is super heavy, no idea why side blades would cost $100.

    I have never seen these but look nice. Be sure to post your review and photos if you decide to order. I am sure they will be fine. I know plenty of people that have ordered CF parts coming from Asia and have had 0 issues. Something like this has fairly low risk since it just gets installed with double sided tape.

    Ignore the shipping cost, the seller likely wants ~$350 for the part but Asian sellers play games with the price/shipping cost to catch peoples attention.

    A lot of money for a product you can't see and a bunch of stolen pictures

    Not trying to go RS, I'd be happy with black painted blades. Just looking for an alternative to the overpriced ECS blades and having to get them painted.

    He told me the high shipping cost was due to the oversized package.
