Ebay LCAs
 
I found these LCAs on eBay for about 140 for a pair. They don't list a brand name so I don't know who makes them. I am always scared about eBay parts so I was wondering if anyone it using them and what they think? It says on the page that they are adjustable to +/- 3 degrees

I never buy parts off of ebay unless I'm looking for some cosmetic things that serve no purpose other than look nice.

Thanks guys, I figured that was the case.

They look like spray painted Megans/Godspeed, like the factory churned out an extra batch to sell at wholesale and saved a couple bucks by not using the fancy weight removal on some of the tabs or drilling the extra holes.

While it's true you get what you pay for, there are some deals to be had, personally I wouldn't, but I wouldn't ostracize someone who did, nor would I feel 100% safe in the car, but that's my own personal conservatism.
