    OK,

    I wanted my 07 Blade decatted because I'm booked in for a custom map and came across a full header system right through to end can on ebay from a company called mymotoparts.

    They have thousands of good feedback and a UK number and website away from ebay. I phoned a guy called Steve and seems legit.

    A decat link pipe (bought elsewhere) is more expensive and requires cutting your original exhaust.

    So what your basically getting is a race system (in stainless) for just over £100 all in and get to keep your original exhaust headers to resell/refit.

    I've gone ahead and ordered so just need 4 header gaskets now.

    Ooh, I don't know about this. Good luck though.

    As Judge Judy says: 'If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.';)

    Well,

    My headers came today and look well made and good quality. Shiny with good welding. I just hope they fit.

    The box had some Chinese print on it so may have been made there but I've had some hit and miss parts from China, some are really good, others end up in the bin.

    Goes to show how much money the branded firms are making for easily made parts.

    I have bought many things from china, Most are excellent. A lot of oem stuff will be made in china, they just charge 3x the price so people think it is loads better. But you do have to check it for quality.

    DazK,

    It's the oval shape gaskets you need not the round one's.

    M and P on eBay are selling them for £2.49 each with free postage so you need four.
