Default What a great deal...NOT!

I just needed to B1tch a little bit, so……..
Last weekend I went down to VA Beach to visit my family, while I was at my mom’s house I sat down at the computer and began to browse craigslist in search of my next mod for my car. I found a guy that was in the local area and was selling a Front Lip. Thinking it was going to be a sweet deal I call the guy, he says that he still has the lip and the lip is brand new, never been fitted or anything. So when I get to his place I ask him “dude where’s the lip” he says “it’s over here on the car I just put it on yesterday.”
This lip was your everyday e-bay lip with scratch marks all over it, it hadn’t been painted or primed so the poly was starting to look like crap and you could easily tell that it had been up there F-O-R-E-V-E-R and he still wanted full price for it.
Obviously I didn’t buy it. (If you are that guy please show your self)
what a deal hu?

All the headache to save like $50-$100 bucks and probably never find one painted the same color as your car. With that said I have to ask, is it really worth it?
