Default eBay OBX headers.... still available?

Looking to get longtubes and was thinking about trying the OBX headers, but can't find them anywhere on eBay anymore... Anyone know if they quit making them or maybe I'm just missing something? Thanks!

I have a set that are brand new that I will sell you. My project was put on hold so I will be selling them. I was going to list them on the forum this week, but if your interested PM me. I will be selling them for $550 + shipping. I paid $652 plus shipping, but I don't have a need for them for now. I will send pics if you want to Pm me with your email.

These are the long tube off roads and are brand new, never installed.

Okay, they put their name on good stainless headers. No need to pretend you know when you haven't owned them.

To the OP, if I were you, I would just contact SSAC and get a set of their headers. I put them on my car, and they fit decent for the money. Just make sure if you are a M6 to relocate the o2 bungs, and have an exhaust shop weld in some pipe from the collectors to the x-pipe. Can't beat them for the price.
