I have a stock downpipe from my Subaru, the 02 sensor bung is beat up so instead of selling it for next to nothing, I though I had heard some metal places give a lot of money for them. Anyone know who takes these and an idea of how much? My stock dp has 2 cats.

When metal prices were up you could get a decent amount for them, but not sure about now.

People are still stealing them, so someone must be paying.

eBay worked best for me. I sold probably 20~ on there, anywhere from $50-$300 each.

Is he a black dude with 6 black helpers from chicago? He pays us top other than that alters all the way. If your dude pays you alot than that is a good thing.

So what would I get from your guy for 2 cats? If he pays more than alters I'll happily sell em to him and clear some space.

FYI, then end price will almost always be higher on eBay. Highest I've gotten for my Audi converters were 105 a side (very similar to the mitsu style ones) and this was through the guy that buys them from me currently. He pays cash and has never swayed 20 dollars from our original price. It's convenient and I don't have to risk running into Dart at Alters :)

hey belittle, we just had an 03 a6 come through our shop and we have a leftover xenon passenger headlight with the ballast and everything, and also a spare ballast from the other side, you interested in buying that type of stuff?
