You should have asked sooner.
It's garbage. It'll probably crack or not fit properly. Stick to name brands when it comes to items like this. Generic eBay headers just don't cut it.

well not saying it wont fit or work good... but chances arent to good......

the fitment is probably the worst case.... theres a 50/50 chance it could fit or not fit unfortunatly.

i lucked out with buying a header from a local car show cheaping out, but i also bought another cheap @ss header and ended up selling it to a friend and he said fitment sucked really bad! he had to drill the holes out larger and some new gaskets as well as having to bolt the header/cat solid so it wouldnt blow out the donute over and over....
he got it to fit and work BUT nothing beats a direct PERFECT FIT the first time!

haha yea you should have asked sooner.
The good time to ask if a product is good is always BEFORE you purchase it.
that sucks that you're going to lose the $42.99+ from shipping (read their return policy)

actualy if he just sent it back he would probably lose like 50-60bucks. remember you gotta pay for shiping back to im....
thats how these people make money! do you seriously think it costs 43bucks to ship the little thing.LOL its more like 10-20bucks


basicaly your better off just keeping it now and IF it doesnt fit make it fit...
im not trying to scare ya so read the IF.... ya got a 50/50chace it will fit fine. good luck!

I'm assuming that he is going to lose the $42.99 that the seller charges for shipping since it says "Buyer is responsible for all return shipping cost. Shipping and handling will not refund in any case."
So that's why I say $42.99 +

if he did send it back he would lose more than that since HE must pay for RETURN SHIPING.
probably 10-15bucks to pay for shiping back to the ebay seller.

either way i hope you dont have any fitment issues! i know it can be a PITA...
