[bazooka joe]

awesome! i love paint and body work, turns me on!

 

[jri4]

Thumbs up! Nice work Josh and crew!

 

[WillD]

I'm looking forward to seeing the finished product!

 

[THE Phen]

Me too... so I can sell it!

 

[princess peach]

if you are selling it, I wouldn't mind talking about your exhaust...

 

[THE Phen]

And the vultures begin circling...

Better make sure the stock downpipe and the BEGi downpipe have the same connection.

 

[princess peach]

Hey, you'd be making a few extra bucks and helping a brother out

BEGi says the downpipes bolt up to stock or enthuza mid pipes so I should be fine

 

[jri4]

Me too... so I can sell it!

...and buy a MS3, right?

jejejejejejejejejeje (*in funny foreign accent*)

 

[THE Phen]

Pablo, I'll give you first dibs if I decide to go that route. Every day that I drive this 3 rental car that... you know... works when I turn the key. It's a bit spoiling.

James... you do know how much I love those cars... don't give away my secret!

 

[Josue6WGN]

The previous shop got you GOOD!

I peeled the clear bra off the hood, and when the painters went to wipe off the residue with wax and grease remover, the damn paint started to wipe off! So they had to sand a good bit of the hood and spray more color than they would've if they were just blending it.

 

[THE Phen]

Holy s***. Man... what a clusterfuck that was then.

 

[Perro del Sol]

Do the MS3 thing........I can get you a great deal Phen!!!!1

 

[ajkulish]

if you come to selll the msm ( which i hope you dont ) what would the price be

 

[THE Phen]

But I don't like MS3's... that's the thing. Too much power in a wrong wheel drive platform.

MSM will probably be $10k as is. $11k if I get it running right.

 

[Josue6WGN]

So, $10K then...huh?

And it should be together today, minus the door belt molding because I don't think the clips are there yet.

 

[WillD]

Is it just me or is that low for an MSM? I've seen mostly $14-15k.

 

[KZL_99ES]

Is it just me or is that low for an MSM? I've seen mostly $14-15k.

not low; for his amount of miles and mods, that seems right to me and to kbb

 

[WillD]

Ah ok.
