OBX struts?

Hey, I was browsing the net last night and came across a website that sells OBX struts for $180 per pair. Now, I know OBX is a rather crappy brand name and all, but these struts are being offered with a 3 year warranty. Anybody hear anything about or have these struts?

I don't think it is a typo only because when I e-mailed the vendor and asked about them they said that the struts were designed much like the KYB struts. I'm thinking maybe KYB makes the struts for OBX and OBX can sell them at a cheaper price only because they don't really have themselves established as a reputable company.

Oh, and by the way people, OBX and Dropzone both make full coilover setups for 01+ Civics.

I just called them myself and spoke to Jeff. He said he "believes" theyre are for 2001+ Civics but wasnt sure. He then said he bought and sold the first production test unit from OBX and wasnt sure about when these would be out. He supposedly is going to contact OBX and email me a pic. I'm not holding my breathe...
