Default Aut cooling plate

you guys know any place that sells the aut cooling plate for less than $160 shipped?
I was able to convince this seller on Ebay to sell me the aut cooling plate for $160 shipped. He had it for $201.35 shipped. He has sold about 5 of them and I contacted those buyers and they said they had little to no trouble with the installation.
So if any of you want to buy one with me, we could convince the seller to come down even more.

Why don't you just pay the $160 for it? Not to long ago there was a huge thread where people got good fitting ones from a place called autotecnik (not sure on the spelling, sorry) and they got them for around $150-$160 shipped. You aren't going to save much more money getting one for $160 shipped, so I think you should just buy it. You bought an s2000, not a civic where you can get all the parts for under $100.. If you don't want to pay that much settle for a normal cheapo ebay plate for $60 if you are worried about cash.

I'm pretty sure you're talking about the alloy craft one and that is not carbon, nor an AUT style cooling plate...

yea, you're right. So they quality on the carbon is good? I didn't see a carbon cooling plate review in the ebay thread.

I actually use to have a cheap Ebay cooling plate, and it is there in that thread somewhere. I honestly wouldnt buy another one, but most people are concerned about saving a few bucks and this way they would, but they get what they pay for. $160 is a great deal for a new good fitting carbon AUT plate, and that is going to be one of the best deals they can get. The cheap Ebay one I had would chip easily, I could grind the holes bigger with a pair of sissors, so that has to say something, and the weave wasnt great at all. If your not looking at it much you won't notice those things, but I didn't like it so I sold it. I also use to have a carbon AUT panel and sold it used for $130, and now have anew APR flat carbon cooling panel and it is perfect. Nice quality, perfect weave and everything, not bad for $130 new..
