Lol, honestly. I mean quality is worth paying for, but c'mon. If those parts were made out of solid gold they still wouldn't be worth $1000 and $900.

I'd say $300-400 for the vents and $250-350 for the handle garnishes would be a sane price. I still wouldn't pay it, but it would be sane.

Not addressing this to you BPAuto, as I know you guys have no control over Mine's prices.

Man that dual air ducts just don't look as good as just having a single duct.

It's good to know that the majority of the members in this forum are not mindless sheep that Mines hopes us to be. Do they really expect people to give up one thousand dollars of their hard earned money for THAT?? Pleeeeeez.

LOL @ "dragless". Kinda reminds me of the marketing term for stickers: "overlays"

the prices are what happens when you pay for a name rather than the product itself

Thanks for showing off some of the new products available but as you can see you really need to be more carefull of the products you promote here.
Gotta admit, it is almost an insult at that price for what it is, i mean hell you can get the new Cosworth manifold or a set of cams for about the same money. Thanks nonetheless.
