Default Exhaust headers

I'm shopping for an exhaust header for my '98 Prelude, and I've looked at a few sites. I'm specifically looking for either Alphawerks or Vibrant. Anyone have a source where I can get one for a great price? I know they run $300 to $500+, but I'd like to save some money (yes, I know to check ebay and I have!).

Vibrant As good as it gets for under $500
I would contact Vibrant about a local dealer......
Shop online, buy local! Don't be a deal *****!

A deal ***** is a guy that would rather spend 10hrs scouring the web to save $5 over what his local shop/business just quoted him. The "lashback" to this is when you need your shops help the night before a big race and they're nowhere to be found because they know this about you......
I will pay an easy 5-10% more for a part through my local shop.....Thats just me though. I don't even shop around anymore.....I find something I want and make a phone call to order it. no online payment bs, no shipping worries, no return problems, and HELP if you need it!
Another in the list of reasons why I use HONDATA instead of Crome......SUPPORT!

Contributing to local business is always good, but 10% is a bit much on some parts.

If you get in good with a shop, they can get distributor rates, and get you a better deal than you could have found online.

10% may be a bit high....but on a cheap part who cares......The IN STOCK thing is another plus usually.

OMG, did we just partially agree on something.....The world will burn now!
