I have fenders and seats, I just want a set of race seats, and a light pole fell on my car awhile back denting the hood and front fenders. Of course I used the insurance check for performance parts lol.
I want to find the fenders and hood locally out of a part out so I dont have to pay shipping. But how much you want for them shipped mike?

Lil update on what I've been doin.
So after buying a new, cammed and valved built head, the deal fell thru and i got my money back. So I am in the process of buying parts to build my head thats in the car now. Got quoted $425 for machining and assembly, and $650 for a port and polish from TurboTrix here in Jerz. I thought $650 sounded high for the P&P, so I'm going to shop around a bit and if i dont find anything better, i'll just skip the p&p for now. But I'm excited to have a high revving setup finally.
On another note, I worked my *** off to finish the Evo in time for Evo/STi day last saturday at Englishtown. Buttoned it all up on Friday morning and brought it to CT to a friends shop for a tune and some dyno time. The car made 522awhp on low boost, pump gas, and no meth. I thought that was pretty impressive. This is on an FP Black and Precision 1200cc injectors. QuarterMaster twin-disc's are NOT fun on the street either lol.
Here's a shitty lil droid vid of one of the dyno pulls.

So we got home from CT at 4am and woke up a lil late and flew out the door to go to the track. I was following the Evo and my friend launched and did a 0-100 run from a light, at which point the car shut off. We pulled over and took a look at it. Upon pulling the valve cover and TB cover, the ******* NEW tensioner failed and byebye to that head. Shitty part is that we didnt even touch the timing at all recently. It worked perfectly before we did the trans/clutch/tcase/turbo etc. Well now I get to bring 2 heads to TurboTrix i guess lol.
