Default Anyone want roof rails?

This guy I bought mine from has a set listed on eBay for $220 shipped. Kinda pissed that he's listed another set for $50 cheaper, but whatever, I'm glad I got mine.

Here's the link to anyone that wants them lol

I don't get why these things are so much friggen money. I mean think about what else you could buy for $200 besides fuel. I bought2 hid kits from VVME.com for 150.
I think 50 for a set of roof rails is fair. 25 per rail. I can't justify paying 100 per rail.
Just my rant.

The thing is the used parts market is flooded with these things. There is 2 special edition grand prix's at the wreckers with the rails intact.

Obviously, you don't know how rare these are to find, let alone be able to purchase them. Besides, I already got my HID kit a long time ago lol
