Anyone take a chance on eBay exhaust?

Anyone take a chance on this type of eBay exhaust? I was thinking about the Magen exhaust but saw this one and liked the look of it.

Alot of these exhaust are coming in through China and Taiwan. Check out alibaba.com and you'll see all the replica exhausts available in both SS and Ti for fractions of what theyre sold retail for the authentic pieces. An amuse replica in Ti is currently for sale in the FS section which is made by the company Yosaikazu. Here's the link to that exhaust:

http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=543347

These same company's are making exhaust for many different cars such as the R35. Contrary to what many of you may expect or think, these ebay exhaust are actually quite popular with the R35 crowd, even though the exhausts do need tweaking. For the price, theyre hard to beat. Some brands are a gamble while some have turned out to be pretty good. Here's a link to the e92 m3 exhaust section on alibaba:

It does look similar to the Megan exhaust but it looks a little different. More like a amuse rep like others were saying I wouldn't doubt for a second that it is made by the same suppler.

Your exactly right you "wouldn't do it your self" and thats why your car is yours and my car is mine, but feel free to pay the 6k price tag for a titanium exhaust for me I will take care of the shipping and I would gladly put it on my car so I can have "Only quality parts for a quality Auto" Like you. Be sure to include me a price of an exhaust system that is quality and send price shipped to 20853 please.

That exhaust is the same as most we see here with some sort of brand name. Its your car, do what you feel is right, who gives a crap what others think, what makes them better than you? Vendors bashing and trying to hustle, smart one.

not everyone can afford a 6k price tag exhaust for an M3... some will take the chance, guessing to make it fit... YES its a hit or miss when it comes to fitment. in a worst case just go to your local muffler to make it fit...

the exhaust looks exactly like the AMUSE... probably was fabricated to be exactly the same. The only question is now will it sound nice? we will never know until the OP tries it.

ex. megan exhaust and agency power is exact same exhaust manufacture by same company branded differently and PRICED DIFFERENTLY...

for a 500 dollars exhaust compare to 1200 dollars exhaust now can you say the 1200 dollars exhaust is a quality exhaust? you be the judge.

exactly OP its your car and to answer your question, no one knows if the exhaust is good or bad i say go ahead and try it worst come to worst you just have to slightly modify the exhaust if it doesnt fit.

that exhaust looks exactly like the Megan(600.00) and Agency(1000.00)...just buy the Megan...sound clips of Megan have always sounded good but it will drone like a mother...if you can accept that, then you should just get the Megan since its cheaper.
