Where are you getting them from Tomo? I asked Tim and he did not sound like he could get them cheaper than $1048 but he does deal with Tein.

I think I got my air compressor sold too! I hope so! I need it out of the garage.

Good luck getting Mike to come do it. I think after working on cars all day at work he kind of gets sick of working on others.

You all can thank me later.....

Bob,

Since the dampers are fairly cheap to begin with I dont have alot of room to play with on the price. Currently I know I can get them for about 1060 + ship. This is via a distributer, however we are getting set up with Tein around Feb. 1st and im sure we can expect a better dealer rate. The new rate might allow me to take off a good 5-8% off the price.

Thanks,
Alan
LCM

BOO YA!

Thanks Tomo but I decided to stick with my stock lights. For some reason I just don't like the cleared look all that much anymore.

Anybody selling a welder around here? I am looking for a nice little gasless 110v welder for metal about 1/16" or a tiny bit thicker.

Yeah, you may as well just spray the out side with tint.
