I got my trunk off EBAY for 300... paid 35 to get it aligned an fitted cuz the mold it was made with made it stick up like 1/4" all around so i took it to local body shop an had it fitted for like 35 bucks so... 335 for a brand new grade A trunk is a deal in my book all day.. Hood i ordered from ebay as well just got it today, set it in place an lines up an appears like its gonna fit perfect... Paid 285 for hood plus 75 for shipping.. So i got both mine for under 700, dont get fooled but dont be cheap either....

i know it's cheaper on ebay, but i didn't want to gamble with it. i don't want any major fitment issues or the CF getting cloudy after a few years.

what's a good website to look for SEIBON's stuff?
