I saw a $199 set of 2.0 P&Cs then saw $800 prices in the mags. What is a decent price for OE US or Euro P&Cs and where?

QUOTE That's partly why they cost $2200, because you're paying for three times the aluminium than you should be just to say "they're billet." No, it's so you can have the piece of mind that comes with a developed component with 8 years worth of R&D and satisfied users behind it. FYI_ The plating process that is done on the Nickies is the biggest cost difference- All that scrap aluminum doesn't cost you a dime... Thats because it all goes backl to Alcoa to be recycled. |
