Default Good price for SLP headers???

Wondering what they are worth used. I hear alot of bad about them like fitment. What would be a reasonable price to pay for a set in normal condition? Kinda rusty on the bottom but nothing bad like thin spots or anything like that.

I belive i paid 250 range for mine. imo The slp headers are a great fit with no problems at all. i dont know why they get such a bad rap. people say the hang to low then they conplain when other headers hit the floor boards. I am stock ride height and have never scraped mine.

$250 used would be a pretty fair price if they're still in good shape. I think the quality and fitment of the SLP headers has always been pretty good, however for the price (new), there are a few more cost effective options.

I paid 250 for mine with ory. They are in alright condition a little discoloration. Nothing a wire brush won't fix. THey do hang low at stock ride height. If you were ever planning on lowering it I would go a diffrent route. I feel like it was $250 well spent.
