Is eBay the bottom of the price/quality spectrum?

Are you looking for finish painted, primer, or bare? Price will vary accordingly. And solely using the "you get what you pay for" method, I would envision some fitment issues for $130. It sucks, but these things are expensive.

It doesn't matter if it's painted or primed I'll give it to a shop to painted so your saying they don't fit right

$130 is pretty much their going rate when new.

If you want a used set you will have to keep an eye on our marketplace:

Fitment is hit-or-miss depending on the manufacturer. Again, you get what you pay for. The actual Nismo ones probably fit like a glove, but for $400+ they ought to. I've had two different sets of "knock-off" Nismo rear fins and both had their fitment issues, but both were had at $200 per set.

So since youve had two sets at 200, is the lesson to just buy one set OEM?

Corrected...

The NISMO rear pieces are not OEM, they are aftermarket and normally have excellent fitment when authentic.

You have 25k in cash and you are worried about $130 fake Nismo rear add-ons?

Doesn't make any sense.

I wouldn't be surprised if they required a bunch of work, just as Waizzz said. You get what you pay for.
