Bought one off Ebay a while back (not from this seller) and it didn't fit. It was just a hair off so I had to heat it up and bend it in order to make it work. Guess that's how anything off Ebay works though. Some things fit perfect and others you just have to make it work.

Good luck. Let us know if you pick it up and how it fits.

$65 for a ebay knock off that may not even fit perfectly or $89 for an ETS piece. Doesn't seem to hard of a choice to me.

You can even find them used every so often.

+1. At that price point go with a proven piece that is known to fit. I have the ETS one and it worked fine for me when I had it on.

ETS FTW. Don't support eBay junk usually doesn't work and your funding the people to keep making them.

Oooo **** that is sweet! Why does it ask for a LED color ? I dont think it would look cool with an LED, this just might be my next mod.

I've seen a picture of it with the coolant running through on an Evo. Here. Looks cool but for $200, you're kinda getting off track from the subject of your topic here.

It's from killer glass. He just probably used the samco hoses instead of what was supplied for extra bling (assuming they come with the hose end at all).

I would have to agree with the people above! I have an ETS one and it fits perfectly which was worth every penny and if anyone is interested I have a friend that has a used one that is pretty clean.
