$800 for painting job. The price could be down in the low $400 if i know the body shop earlier. The garage that i brought my car in contract out the job so they charge me $800. Quality really good.

BTW, here is part 1 of my "pimp up interior"

If you have the money, why not? We're not all in the same tax bracket. by the end of February my system should be finished. I will be spending close to 8K on just the install. And by the end of April my turbo shouldbe installed. Boy it feels good to just waste money...



Btw, how were you able to fit 7" screens in the headrest?

Hey if you have it flaunt it. Still looks dumb behind the seats. But like I said, whatever floats your boat. He would have been better off putting those in the trunk lid.

Just my opinion, <<<<put flame retardent suit on,

I believe in fair value. If you or anyone try to rip people off or sale something that way over price then i would say "the price is high"

That's a crock. You lowballed me on rims claiming you could get them for 700 new on ebay when the price was 799 + shipping on ebay.

Either way the price was still way below what online stores sell them for ($13-1400) so you really shouldn't be talking.

You strike me as one of those people that talk trash about the price or product to lower the 'value' then try to pick it up on the cheap. That's pathetic.

seem like you have bad memory. I don't intend to buy cheap ADR rim from you. You list the price quite high while on ebay was selling for $800 something. In addition to it, the store that sell on ebay locate in LA too. I didn't ask you to sell to me for $700. Take a cool beer to refresh your memory pal. BTW, you can't sell your rim because of your price, not because of what i said. If the price is right, people would buy it already.

No matter how you put it, you still postdumped in my thread. It's not your place to tell others what a 'good' price is. You don't like the price, don't buy it. Don't hinder another person's sale. It's common courtesy & enforced on some other forums.

Like I said, online retail stores sell it for $1300-1400 per set + s/h. I was asking $960 picked up, and sold them for $900 picked up. Someone obviously found it reasonable.

On top of that, you still underestimated the value. That's why you claimed you saw it for $700 (it was $800) then went and said for $850 I'd have a buyer (I remembered it being YOU, but upon rereading I think you meant in general).

Some guy coming in and saying 'dude I saw that on eBay for <asking price -$200+> will automatically put doubt into a buyer unless the price is insanely cheap. That's not cool .. butter it up all you like, it's still bad manners, lightly put.
