thank, he hasn't done any work since the vents, he has two other cars he works on that were there before mine. but I knew it was going to be a slow process before I took the car in so it's cool. I guessing it will take him around 6 months to complete.(it's just him in the shop) but i will keep everyone posted, if it doesn't get locked before!

6 Months is a long time, but if its just 1 guy, trust me I can understand! Thats why I went in business with a partner, lol! And with all that "custom" cutting and welding and fitting, danm man, you are gonna have an expensive bill under your hands, theres alot of labor hours in there!

Semir, dont worry, I think your car should only take about 12 months to complete!

yeah, I hoping it's not over 12 grand for body and paint, but you get what you pay for, so we'll see.

do you plan on keeping it for a very long time? im just wondering if the resale of it would be **** after you put all the money into it. that would certainly suck.

I plan on keeping it for awhile, the car will have around $50,000, I figure it would sell to the right person for a big hunk of change but I wouldn't sell it for a long time!

if they can give me a gaurantee that if they F^%k up my motor, they will fix it at their cost, I would! If you still talk to them, tell them I have doubts cause I know the f*&ked up a couple of peoples cars and see if they can give me a gaurantee.

Looks really well done. You should run a wider tire though. Whatever you have on there is gonna be super sunk, and your car is not for drifting, so stretching is stupid.

the only reason i got those tires is cause thats what Jacquemond had on their demo car, I'm going to go wider in the back for sure.
