i dont like the paint he used though.. looks "flat" and wouldn't shine like the stock ones.

Looks good, but you will need a adapter for it, that will be another $50-$100.

you can get brand new one for $350, $290 for used seems a bit pricey to me.

Why bother with used and no warranty and the risk of ebay to save $50-$60?

I've seen new cobra intakes go for under 290 on ebay. I think the typhoon intake flows better than the cobra anyway. I saw an article on it some where. It cost 275 for a typhoon on ebay new. The both aren't great intakes out of the box.
