Is this a deal?

Hey Apprends here, I've been lurking around the topics here for awhile now and decided it was bout time I made one myself.

First, allow me to give you some details on my Maxima. He-he, its basically stock with only a new cold air intake from Weapon-R, but enough about my baby.

Well today, I went to this new performance shop and while there one of the employee approached me and offered to sell his OBX Headers that he'd gotten for his Nissan Altima. I'm not clearly sure on the year of his Altima, but I'm guessing around the 2002-2006 range. Here's the catch though, he offered them too me for just 200 bucks. Now I'm newbie in the car game but I feel asthough there are something wrong with them or its some sort of scam. I mean the headers were hanging on the wall and they looked brand new, I'm just unsure. Something else...Will they even fit on my Maxima?

P.S. If you guys would suggest any mods to the car would be perfect, treat my car as if it was your own...I don't care, I wanna know what's out there for me to do to my Maxima.

Altima headers will not fit a Maxima.

OBX makes a version specific to the Maxima... Altima headers will require modifications

Yeah, I mean he was talking about wielding and all, that's just a little too much.
Thanks for your quick responses.
