Default Are these welds worth $120?

I can buy this DP which would be a perfect fit to my setup for $120 + shipping. Do you think the quality of the work and materials matches the price?



I have everything for my setup besides the pipes and water lines. A prefabbed DP would get me a lot closer to blowing (up?) my car.

they dont look the cleanest but I dont weld yet so I have no other comments, I guess if you dont have a welder and have no other choice than yeah they look pretty solid.

LOL as if that pile of dump is going to fit your car! Get real. Is it worth the money if it were to fit? Yes.

If you've got a D series T3, I've got a downpipe as ugly as that for $30 shipped. ----, I can probably go over it and make it mad tyte. (I didn't make it)

You paided too much. But hey you got it and if it works use it. You lost some money, too ------- bad. I lose money on everything I buy, unless it's a tool.

I could make one for $20 (or a 24 pack of Pabst) + cost of materials. If you're NW Tacoma / Seattle

The guy who's selling it had a t28 with the same mani i have and maintained A/C on his d16y8. This is the same setup i'm doing except with a t25, which should be the same fit. If someone can get me a DP that fits those specs for less than that price and guarantee fit, pls let me know.
