There's not, he's not in the business of painting taillights, he stays extremely busy as it's a small shop where he is the only painter.

If we do set it up, i'd be happy to receive all shipments and take them to him then ship them back to you guys (at your expense) as a favor to him, but I know for sure he won't bother with buying cores to do core exchanges.

www.rjspaintshop.com if you want to see some of the type of work he does.

It's not a cheap thing to do unfortunately (the time consumption it takes for him to do it is not worth his time unless there was multiple units that he can do at once)

So does that mean he won't do them unless it's more than one? I really want to get mine painted.

Today we replaced the Eibach Sportline springs with the KW V3 coilovers

What a night and day difference...haven't even driven the car much, but it looks better and feels better too

Wish the coilovers were available earlier, but it was worth the wait.

They are both 18x9.5 +38 all around with 255/35/18 tires.

The price is $999 plus shipping, flat rate shipping to the lower 48 states is $70

$1069 shipped without any accessories

Both colors in stock and ready to ship immediately

The Linea Corse LeMans wheels in silver or hyper black if available.

18x9.5 +30

Nobody has done this yet and I know you'd sell many sets... I'd be 1st in line.
