were you looking to do a full color change or same color, just repainting. makes a BIG difference if the jambs need to painted too. in that scenario, the whole car comes apart and even the hinges will be perfect.

hard to tell until starting to try and fit the kit to the car. some fall on with little to no mods, some take 50+ hours to get perfect.

the profit margin was pretty low on the exhausts. WAY to much work involved to make. not quite as easy as making jigs off mine and poof, done. atleast an investment of $4k to fire it back up and would have to sell one a day (everyday) to make it even worth the time involved. considering i only sold about 15-20 in a year, it's not gunna happen
who knows what the future holds. i keep getting every construction job that calls me and now my lead time is starting to grow again. a big job or 2 and it will be back to 2-3 months.
i will be getting a nicer commercial space soon though and will taylor it more to a professional shop space. gunna go look at one tomorrow.

yeah start that again. just take your off to make the jigs. that'd be more profitable for you than hoping someone wants a body kit put on, plus i want one.
