Good Deal??

So I just bought a set of 5"x36" chrome stacks for $120 which I think is a pretty good deal. The same guy I bought them from said that for another $275 he could install them (this includes all mounts, 90's, Y-pipe, increaser from 3.5 to 5, etc). Does this seem reasonable to you guys? The only reason I'm looking at having someone else install them is cause I won't be near home (aka shop and tools for about 4 weeks)

Less Than $400 And Its All Done I Would Say Is Reasonable. The Question Is What Is Your Time Worth To You ? If You Dont Care About Wether Or Not You Did The Work Then Its Worth It. If You Think Your Time Is Valuable And Dont Want To Mess With It, Its Worth It. I Would Say Go For It.

wow, I paid almost 500 for my kit...6x36 miter cuts and all the hardware and had to install them myself for around 490.......its worth letting them do it..the hole is kind of a pain and getting them straight and bolting them on at the same time is a little tricky,,,goood buy!

Do you mind me asking where you bought them from? I am looking into 7x36 miter cuts! thanks

The guy I bought them from does business with some sort of truck parts supplier out of Lexington, KY. The stacks are brand new in the box. I'll ask him what supplier but it may be a couple days.
