Smile FS: AutoExe Member Brace Set

I am selling my AutoExe Member Brace Set, It is only used for 1 month...After I installed, I feel that the car was stiffer a lot, and the cornering performance was improved by a lot.
The reason I am sell this is because after I put my turbo kit on, I couldn't put it back on.....So there is no point of keeping it...
This is straight from Japan's AutoExe company...
If you want go check it out at http://www.autoexe.co.jp/SozaiTopPag...asyubetsu.html to see the use of this brace set....
I am only asking $600 + shipping obo.....

Obviously. Like SE3P said, it's a ripoff (copy). No one said they were AutoExe originals.

The one that you said was from mazdaparts? Are the authentic AutoExe??? Because mine are from AutoExe Japan.....
I dont know how you got those replica from, but if u look closely, those AutoExe under brace have badge on them.....
If you wanna buy replicas then go ahead, but don't compare it with the authentic AutoExe....

Ya, so if that's a ripoff, there is no point to compare to my authentics ones...
Would you guy compare a replica rims to authentic rims?? Of course they are different in price....What can I say man....it is all up to you guys....
but if u you wannt be low ball about it, then that's fine.....paying like $200 buck more for real authentic stuff, I think it is a very good deal....

qcheung, calm down. No one has even come close to trying to offend you. This forum is to let everyone know fair market value and opinions of parts, and keep noobs from getting ripped off. If your price is fair, you should have no problem selling it.

I think its an ok price......I dont think you will get that price......also, tcsportline is a copy of the autoexe brace but there products are great quality as well. But I am sure someone wants an authentic piece.....I just cant justify it. Although I want it!

Well, maybe u guys r located in the US, which get these cheaper, up here in Canada....they don't cost as less as you guys got in the States....
And also, if buying from mazdapart, don't u need to pay tax and shipping?
Well, anyways....I am just saying, y r ppl trying to compare authentic stuff with replicas?? there is no point to compare them....

even if we were in canada we could still buy from mazdztrix, which wouldnt be a replica...so stop saying that....your asking to much. if you want to charge retail.....become a vendor.

well i mean if we all buy it online it doesnt matter where were from now does it? price costs the same and itll actually benefit you a bit now considering currency rate. nice parts but i honestly dont kno why youd sell it at the same cost as new. your cost plus shipping and paypal is basically the same at mazdaparts plus shipping and tax thats all everyones trying to say i think.

600 is just too much for this brace. 400 shipped sounds fair, but what do I know. I have the carbing under brace.

I'm buying the Undercar Brace from Mazdatrix next week... even though I don't have my car... TCSpotline's a reputable company even though they focus is primarily on Hondas.

I was looking at the Carbon and liked the fact that it's all one piece as oppose to AutoExe/TCSportline. How much did Sammy sold it to you for?

Well Lets do some Math here......

I order things from the internet ALL the time and guess where I am located... You guessed it Canada.

So this is what you do.... I get all my Stuff shipped to a USPS office near the border (IE Blaine or Bellingham) They charge me $10 Total to hold it there and they also sign for the product. Blaine is a 45 Minute drive for me to get there.

So lets do some Math (the Dollar is fluctuating but it is par for par right now)
$590 for Auto Exe Front and Rear Brace.
~$40 Shipping
$10 Holding from USPS
~$10 on Gas


Canadian Gov't Charges 12% Tax on Goods I have never been charged the 6% Duty they charge of bringing things that aren't made in Japan.

$590 X 12% = $660.80 + $40 + $10 + $10 =$720 New for a Canadian Consumer

You are offering a Used piece at $600 Plus Shipping.

For some that may be a deal but others it is far from a deal.

It's Carbing, and he charged me 520. It's two pieces that bolt together to the frame.
