Hows this one look? It seems to be the same but it doesn't say OBX. It's a good price though. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FMIC-...mZ110085518891

Just thought I would give an update on that one I posted from ebay. The thing looks great, exactly like the other one posted in this thread. I can't believe it was only $99. I can't wait to get this all put together and see how it does.
