Default Plenum Cover Question??

Okay, found one on ebay for $57.00. Its the one with the horse instead of the logo. But The one that says GT from all the sites I have been looking thru are $149.95. I like the one that has the pony on it but I was wondering why so cheap, and why the GT one is so much more

Here is the link for the Ebay one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/05-06...QQcmdZViewItem

the one in the listing is the factory 07 piece, major mass production, vs small aftermarket production. supply and demand, that is the rasons for your cost, plus as long as people are buying the aftermarket pieces, they more than likely will not drop the price. Also I believe some of the aftermarket units are made from metal (not sure but i remember seeing that somewhere)

You plan on ever showing off your Mustang? Do you like original mods?
Go with Midwest and have them paint on for you and add a badge later.
