Those fabled eBay throttle body badges

Still can't find 'em on eBay, gentlepersons. Found plenty of the $50 kind elsewhere, but no $13 including shipping on eBay, nohow noway.

Have I simply lost my searching prowess, or are they not really there???

That would be a good idea if I didn't like the color, but I want the bad boy to either show a bowtie or to say "LT1" on it. And my free style lettering has yet to be developed.

That sounds like something a Mustang jock would do. Notice carefully that my request is for the eBay items, but thanks anyway.

"Waste" is in the eye of the beholder. Waste could be interpreted as answering questions not asked. Or it could be interpreted as squirting a plastic POS with a rattle can. If I can't find the fabled eBay items, then I'll spring for the $60 Thunder Racing example. I've spent about $15k on the project this far -- $60 more ain't gonna make me miss the housepayment (If I still had a house payment)

Nonetheless, if a similar product is ACTUALLY available on eBay (as some listers said last night) I'd probably go that route . . .

I second that. I got mine for the exact same price, probably from the exact same person.

Cool

They are on Ebay... I've seen them. I'm not sure the user name of the guy who makes them though. I seen one on there for a corvette that was going for about $6.50, but no Camaro stuff.

The Camaroz28.com ones are coming soon. Just have to finish up the CNC stuff

I got a new mba products blue with silver bowtie for $10. Some dealer had some leftover or some **** and sold it to me for $10. I say spend the $60 for an mba one and not the cheesy looking ebay ones.

My ebay one is not "cheesey". It looks very good. I think mine was $13.50 and it also came from carsram-air (or something like that)
