I know its a topic beat to death but im not asking for pictures lol. Im looking to see if anyone in here has used any of the ebay sellers as the price is good but I am very concerned about quality issues. I know AM sells the kaenen spoiler but I cannot justify dropping 260 on a spoiler when there are others that can be bough for less than half the price.

So, any of you guys tried out the ebay guys? :beer:

Btw, here are a few of the sellers im talking about

94-98 FordMustang Fiber Glass Saleen Wing spoiler S281 : eBay Motors (item 130416223077 end time Aug-07-10 12:04:07 PDT)

94 95 96 97 98 Ford Mustang Saleen wing spoiler S281: eBay Motors (item 180540304657 end time Aug-06-10 17:07:11 PDT)

Ford Mustang 94 98 Fiber Glass Saleen Wing s281 NEW : eBay Motors (item 160464330819 end time Aug-10-10 21:56:45 PDT)

Personally I wouldn't buy any of those due to the feedback %. Read through the feedback and see what other people are saying about the fitment issues before you buy. I'm sure you get what you pay for, but if you car is a 10 footer like mine is, then it's probably worth it.

I have a kaenan on my car and the fit is perfect, the real saleen s-281 i bought before it was a genuine piece of crap compared to the kaenan. Like stated above, you get what you pay for with the ebay items.

This is the guy I bought mine from last year. Fit is excellent!

http://myworld.ebay.com/ebaymotors/poncho!!! (but he eventually screwed a bunch of people before eBay shut him down)

I suspect he set up another eBay acct to sell them since the one I bought came from the same area (San Ysidro, CA as well I think)

Also, the guy who had a group purchase on wiper cowls on SVTPerf purchased them from the same guy.

Mine:

It's certainly fair to ask the question you are asking.

It's also certain that if you are asking the question, you just haven't learned yet.

Get the name brand, or do it twice. Your choice.

all three of those ads look like they are the same person. Each has a user name referring to high quality carbon fiber, and the price comes out very similar when figuring in shipping.

1/2 the price = 1/2 the quality

Kaenan or nothing.

it may l;ook similar, but it's not. the generic ones are more flat, and don't flow well on the car.
