Hmmm... from that list, I'd only keep the Stance's and use OEM parts for the rest and use the rest of the money to finance that VQ35 swap...

They just want proof. Either he is telling the truth which is a nice story. Or he is making it up so he can look cool on internet fourms......a TRUE nerd/loser.

Thankfully I have USAA and the title will stay a clear title. I do not know how the windows didn't break but the survived even tho tree limbs fell all over it as well. Plus i took those photos after i had replaced the doors and trunk from a junkyard. just finished up with the suspension for the night the front needs adjusted but ill take some pictures real quick and post them.
