You make a good point James. I'm going to have to keep a very close eye on my car at shows.

precisely. It's amazing how some business' don't understand the concept...

not long ago I went to two different gun shops right around the corner from each other... after obtaining a price on a certain pistol from one, I went to the other to price shop... the 2nd place was quite a bit more expensive and I told them so by mentioning their competitors price... their response was "I don't know how they keep the doors open"... I replied "by selling guns" - duh.

Price product reasonably = sell product, stay in business. Price product ridiculously = no sales, close doors.

my thoughts exactly. dont get me wrong ARC has some nice stuff. but over 100 for an oil cap? what is so special about an oil cap that it needs to cost that much?

the cap is not special - the people that have it are (I guess that's what made it trendy for a minute)...

Fujita air intake

ARC Oil cap
in this thread: https://g35driver.com/forums/exterio...ml#post5709768

someone better nab it before he realizes they are collectors items... I coulda made him a low ball offer and sold at premium (but I hate when people do that so I wont).

I was gonna sell all of my Arc stuff but I guess now I'll hold onto them. Also I guess the chances of me picking up their strut bar and oil catch can without forking over an arm and a leg are now dwindling towards nil.
