This retails for $250...MSRP is $340. I'm not trying to crap on your thread, I'm genuinely interested ; if its used it should be noticeably cheaper than brand new.

Intense power hardly ever updates their authentic JDM prices on their website. At one point they were offering ARC products NEW for lower than what they go for used on the forums lol. Why you may ask? The product was discontinued. I wonder what would have happened if someone placed an order? Either no response or you will get an email saying sorry.

I'm willing to work with the buyer, but I'm not going off of Intense's false pricing, they list MSRP as $280 which is super old. I am familiar with MAP pricing and dealer discounts so I know that pricing is incorrect.

Those prices are old. Like I said most people don't update their websites often enough. Pricing has changed.

I spoke to Logan at a-spec that used to work there and he said he remembers adding that part when he still worked there years ago. Speak to Tuan apparently he's the new guy. In regards to that out of nowhere pricing of $250, I've called and emailed them to no avail just to double check.

I'd try calling them for pricing if I were you if you don't believe me. You can stop shitting on my thread with OLD links. I know pricing and am full aware of MAP pricing and dealer discounts.

Holy shiet! A spec was ages ago, Logan is at Work Wheels now for the past few years if I'm not mistaken? I think Tuan might still be at A spec, haven't talked to him in a few years though. Did they move from Forest Falls?

Good price on this, if I still had a Z I'd be all over it. GLWS.

Hmmmmm what makes more sense, you're citing MSRP and trying to say that is what they cost retail...or EVERY single store that carries it has "old" pricing advertised. Google the part number, every site that carries it has it listed for $250-$280, one or two out of a dozen are selling them at MSRP.

O.K. and? So what he put it in awhile ago. That doesn't negate the fact that it's still selling for what it's listed for.

I don't need to, if I add it to my cart and buy it for that price...that's the price it sells for.

I'm not crapping on your thread, I am ready to buy (currently I'm trying to confirm what you said about it working with the varis duct). But you're claiming they cost $340 new and I've provided (and can give much more) multiple legitimate sites saying otherwise. Rather than just admit you made a mistake or mis read or have it too high you sitting here accusing me of crapping on your thread and saying they are old sites (wtf?). Bottom line is this...you're selling a used part for brand new pricing. I don't care about your map pricing or w/e b.s. you're throwing out to save face. EVERYWHERE I've seen this sold it's going for no where near what you are claiming.

Now the price you sent me via pm is acceptable and I'll take it at that price, but I need confirmation that it lines up with varis duct. If the varis template is off a little from the location of the duct on the N1 bumper this won't fit. You say it does, cool, but have you test fit or have a link to where someone did?

You're misunderstanding my post. When people list JDM stuff for sale it hardly is ever updated regularly. I'm telling you the prices listed are based off of old YEN to US dollar conversions and the MSRP that Cwest USA sent out to dealers. Which is why you saw Intense list MSRP as $280 which is ~$60 off of the current MSRP.

If you actually order the part and checkout...those same companies with OLD pricing will email you and let you know they screwed up on pricing. I guarantee you on that.

I have nothing to admit fault to, but I am logical enough to understand that a part is worth what people are willing to pay for it. Those have dealt with me before know that I'm pretty easy to deal with.

Save face for who? I'm on mobile now so I can't see my itrader score, but what do I have...200 or so positive feedback with ZERO negatives.

Anyways here nor there, I have a picture of it working with my Varis air duct. I will find it and post it up for you in a few minutes.

Lol that's my point. Logan said that he remembers adding this product up to their website when he was there years ago.

I'm not sure on location lol. I spoke to him via aim just a few hours ago.
