You just have to buy from Banks, or an honest to god Banks dealer.

On that note...for an LMM....there is no performance difference, just looks. The DPF is your main restriction and problem. I don't know what your future plans are....but if you keep the DPF you are looking at most tuners clogging it. For the BEST mileage and performance gains....you have to go downpipe back. Not saying a tuner won't help...but the DPF is like a watermelon in a garden hose.
Fact that the seller has an ebay store is irellevant. Why even bring it up. Any retalier local to me would have ordered the part and probably got it from a warehouse supplier. How is that any different. I looked at their stuff at SEMA just a couple of months ago and know for certain what I have is not a fake, it's the real thing. The cool cuff part is held on with 4 small welds, and not even centered on the pipe. Same for the tip. And the tip has the exhuast pipe going through it. The two pieces are not welded together like on MBRP, Magnaflow and others. There was no finish work done on the pipes, etc.
