no booze man, we'll wanna drive after!!!
Well I picked up my rims and rubber, but the springs are "special order" and I will not get them for about a month... .... and out of the 4 silver Verdicts that I received, I got 1 opal... ... so I had to send one back..... grrrrrr all I will need installed at the party will be the springs, that way I'll be able to drive around a bit and get the springs to settle, then goto Frisby and get the rims put on and get an alignment done.

Rep Power: 291 for LilJoe: the spring install party will involve a set of rear disc brakes!
I just sold them to the man.
although I think it'll be him, jer and I that install them at my house. I'd hate to have to involve anyone else...it's a pain in the butt
hehe

Rep Power: 291 ^ Player, he won it, he didn't pay anything.
Landin, why don't you check out the shop I took my car to for that huge dent . Phoenix colision, the guy does kits and painting (and body work) for a living, awsome guy, and if you don't want a receipt he'll give you a SWEET price, probably less that 50% of any other place because he doesn't have the HUGE overhead, and he'll guarantee the paint. If you'd like I can call him and get you a price?
only catch is, it's in Rockland, again, if you'd like I can drive it down there for you. I have to give his heat gun back anyways, when it's done, I'll pick it up for you. he paint matched my car PERFECTLY, and like I said, he'll give you a ROCK bottom price. HOLLA AT ME!

Rep Power: 291 If you've ever seen a white prelude with a full kit on, and slammed, he did all that, the whole thing is moulded to the car, he can paint a whole car sure!
Baller, I called him and he said 100 per lip I dunno whats good or whats not, but he wont be chargin you any taxes for THIS week. Shop around though, I don't know what other places might be pricing at. After this week though it will be 129 plus taxes, (per lip) still sorta sounds expensive though. I thought he'd be able to do it for cheaper... but then again, maybe that IS cheap.... b/c of the colour and all. But like I said, shop around. get some prices, lemme know.

Rep Power: 295 ^^hmm...i guess ill look around a bit more and let you know. That sounds a bit steep considering i would need to get the side skirts painted too, which i dont have yet. I wouldnt be able to do it all this week. He knows its not a full bumper right?
what does everyone else think....i though for the whole thing i could do it for like 250. But if its 100 per side skirt too then i think thats a bit much. thanks for checking tho, and maybe it is really good i have no idea.!
edit: also i dont want him installing it...just paint...thats it. I dunno if that price was installed, but i highly doubt it! just asking though u never know! thanks

The rear swap is not fun at all.
