    Engine Compartment

    Hi Guys

    I just bought the 5 piece carbon fibre set second hand but in perfect condition for £2,500 ($3,900). Is this a good price? Going to install it this weekend :P

    I had to pay closer to $5k for new so if they are in great condition you got a good deal.

    Re: Engine Compartment

    Thanks mate. I havnt seen them yet, it was a purchase on Ebay from Germany. So I am worried that the buyers description doesnt match the conditon of the parts I recieve. But I doubt the parts can get damaged in the engine bay or being removed for resale?

    Shipping from Germany to UK should be your biggest concern. Make sure they wrap the parts up well or you collect in person

    That's funny mark, in your original post above it definitely says you bought the engine compartment 5 piece set for £2500.
