Just got off the phone with Obed from Dayas, I will have the vehicle back by the end of next week he said at the latest. They are installing the new tires I ordered (Firehawk Wide Oval 500) and the 2010 front end conversion this week, they just got the parts in Monday.

I want to thank you very muchCandlestickPark for giving me the idea to do the Conversion. I will post lots of Pics A.S.A.P.

Unhappy **Update**

Went to go look at the progress so far. They ordered the bumper but weren't able to get money from insurance to install the fogs so there will be inserts, wasn't what i wanted but its cool. One of his mechanic's quit allegedly so it's taken longer than he said he'd like. Hopefully Friday it will be ready, going to paint tomorrow, cure Thursday then start put it all together. Didn't take many pics but here.

Yeah for sure, that's reasonable. The fogs are a big part of what makes that setup look awesome.

ALSO** I like the new grill but should I have it black like it was?

would like tight, i will see.

Alright this is the deal...its crazy to think about that i gave the shop the link before all this to look at and had him look at everything closely before I started only to be surprised with this now, so close to the end.

I deff wasnt planning on the cost and prob wouldn't have done all this if I now basically have no choice because I have no money. Finishing up my 4 year degree in the summer and paying my way through the police academy next week its a BAD time but oh well. I have no choice really, you live and you learn. Will be so happy when its all done.

headlights will be order tom and will take 2 days. shooting for tues or wed to pick it up

fog lights $250 each
deductible $500
Headlights $777 each plus tax


Oh and I will have 2 headlights for sale as soon as i get pictures of them up on here and craigslist to try and pay back some of this debt that im in. One will be brand new in the box and the other will be like new. the shop is polishing the older one to look just as good!

heres some picks....
