GU scoops now $230?

Post by Syzygy »

went to my local nissan spares place in newcastle today and the guy told me that i cant just get the fibreglass scoop on its own, i have to buy it as a kit.

Does this sound right? i've been reading that people have got them for 130 recently..

At ferntree gully nissan they have also gone up in price, but not by much. I picked up a couple around mid year for about $105 each, and a mate picked up one a couple of weeks ago for about $110.
