Whoever you are I need to know who you are so i can decide if i want to outbid you or not. if its someone like rob or carotman whos helped me out Ill gladly step aside. if its someone like CAH Ill keep bidding. No one has hit my max bid on the konis yet and even I havent found the reserve yet. I know its over $400 though.

The bra I dont really want to use I just want it to say Ive got one. Its one of the origianl oem options I dont have yet.

Just kidding.


Women and cars should not wear bras.

Damn you guys are killing me. Reserve not hit yet. sell me your new set for 300 and ill retract my bid for his used set. If you gave that bra away who did you give it to? Obviously this guy. Any chance the dealerships still have the corners? Ill call tomorrow. Personally I think just the center piece looks best. The corners make it look cheap.

OMG hes insane if he thinks hes getting that kind of dough for used front struts. A set of 4 easy but just the fronts. maybe he should chime back into the board and realize theres more options.

I just recieved an email stating hes lowered the reserve price to $350. I dont want them that bad. Ive talked myself out of them. For $300 hes have a sell though

Damn, that's rediculous. $500 for a used pair, with no knowledge of how many miles on them. I need a front pair too, but not at those kind of prices. Guess I lucked out on my rear pair, about $200 for them and they were brand new in box.

Yes I sent him amessage. I have his cell number anyways. I know hes still pissed at me but this is business. Im going to see if i can get between my max and top asking for it. hopefully 250 would be sweet and Ill even take the kids on a ferry ride to go get them. That or Itzdave can grab them for me. i bet hes not 20 minutes from them. Yeah more funds to waste on the bra Im not going to use

Well after contacting him via craigslist i bought them from him anyways. ill explain to the wifey why my monthly alloted funds went into something Ive got 3 of later. I bought the bra but i forgot to call the dealership to see if the other parts are still around or not. I miss working on the car. Its so nice having funds again. i could get used to this for sure.

Hehe, figures. Not likely I'll sell them, unless that would get me a set of D2/ksport coilovers.

Well after long debates through email (who uses email as a means of communication these day) I decided even though hes 2 hours from and being a real prick about things I gave him an extra $50 to drop them in the mail box. hes claimed that someone keeps offering him more not to sell to me but who knows if thats true, Dude was in virginia or west virginia or some shit. Im hoping to have these by mid next week. if all goes well and dave buys the bilsteins from me this will pay for the mods I want done to them. Speaking of which, has anyone heard from Gordon at koni? Ive sent 2 emails to his personal email (if hes still employed there) and 2 to corporate with no responce in over a month. Maybe I need to pick up a phone and call?

After a long few debates we decided hes going to ship them to me and I paid him extra for it. Total cost was $350 shipped and this guys only a few hours from me. I tried to get dave to go get them then this guy started pulling all sorts of excuses out and such. To make the process easier we settled on this. When they get here Im going to pull the current set off the coupe and send them all in for external valving and such. I doubt Ill get them revalved becuase the spring chioces Im using are well within the stock guidelines but I will call about the cost getting them swapped out the circlip instead of the welded base. thats well worth a few hundered to me. This way I can change settings on the fly and height without having to swap springs and such. I need to ask as well about shortening still. I dont want to risk damage as I plan to end up at the max drop for these struts. Well see.
