help me with an EBAY decision QUICK!

hey guys, i saw THESE NEUSPEED 4DR. SPRINGS on ebay. Should i buy em? 105 bucks plus shipping. Only thing is, is that how they look new? looks like they've been opened up, perhaps used then put back in the box with a crapload of tape wrapped around it. And if you buy em out from under me the.... i guess i'll have to get some for more.

also, he's got 2/5 complaints from his buyers...

You know, I would take a look for you and all, but I can't get the link to work.

A lot of tape does not mean it has been opened. A lot of my packages comes in multiple layers of tape so the box don't open. I'd say GO FOR IT!

damn. thats a steal!

If I saw it, I would have got it.

but oh well. I didn't. plus I have a 2 door... but I was thinking it doesn't matter since I'm gonna take it to Neuspeed and have them install/cut it for me....

good buy. hopefully its brand new as they claim it to be... even if its a bit used, 100 is a pretty good deal.

well, thats if I ever buy the springs and bring it to neuspeed..

but from what I gather, the 2 door springs are just the 4 door springs with the rear spring cut 1 coil... appearantly the springs didn't lower the rear of the coupes that much... and some members questioned neuspeed about it and they advise them to cut the coil... if u do a search in the suspension forum you'll see the threads I'm talking about...

anyhow they released a 2 dr version of the sport springs but I think its probably just the 4door version with the rear spring cut 1 coil...

and appearantly the 2 door versions are out of stock...

Doh!, I was too late to help you man. The box does look like its been resealed, but that could just be a result of shipping in the first place.
Let us know how you make out with them.
