Should I avoid buying it??

Hey so theres this vishnu dual cone air filter for sale. By the pictures the guy sent me, the filter looks pretty dirty. Hes tellin me he used it for about 30k miles. I was thinking that some good cleaning with a K&N cleaner and i should be good; but i could be makin a mistake. Let me know what you guys think.

Unless he was selling it to you for very cheap I would just buy new. They are cheap enough new...

If hes selling it super cheap, dirty isnt a big deal. They wash up pretty easily and last for a long time.

If its only marginal savings over a new one, I say get a new one.
