FS: VRP Shortie Headers for E55

I'm selling a used set of VRP Headers with cerakote ceramic coating for an E55. I was going to install it on my car, but my fabricator advise against it since it doesn't align perfectly to the exhaust ports. It can be made to fit, but it might cause them to crack over time. I bought them from a MBworld member here for $500; I will sell them for $300 (Via Paypal) + Shipping (via UPS). There is no warranty or refunds for the headers, these are sold as is since I'm disclosing all the flaws up front (you know what your getting). Pics below.

Gotten a lot of PMs about fitment. These headers came out of an E55, so I can't make claims that it will fit on other models. Here is some info from the original VRP site.

VRP offers a bolt-on header by mounting it directly to the OE down pipes, VRP headers are hand built from 16gauge mild steel that is then coated with a 2000F HiTemp Ceramic coating. VRP headers provide gains of 26rwhp and 23rwtq (tested on a 2006 E55). These headers will work on the following cars:

* W211 E55 Kompressor
* W211 E500
* W203 C55
* R230 SL55 Kompressor
* R230 SL500
* W209 CLK55
* W209 CLK500
* W219 CLS55 Kompressor
* W219 CLS500
