ehh i need a car first.. still dont have a working mx3.

but i'm planning to test fit one of the hinges just for shits'n'giggles on my blue one. o yea and i bought the pair (without shocks) for $640CND which came to around $540USD actually. not a bad deal!! it just took a while. i'd still say they're a good deal at what he's charging now. i just gotta see if they work good or not before i say anything more

damn.. these things take a lot of work to install! i took off the fender and removed the hinges, but there is a LOT of frame pieces (ends of welds where pieces came together) that get in the way, and i will have to grind them off. so i figure it's better to wait til get the car i'm actually gonna use to drive than do all this work to install them on my crashed one. not to mention i still dont have any shocks for em.. so sorry guys, but it'll be a while.

sam is there anychance you can email me)peterkemp@gmail.com) or post the item number for the shocks..bc i have a canadian tire and would like to know how much it is......thank you

Sam Baker · Post by **Sam Baker** » May 7th, 2005, 6:30 pm

yea.. 4422 and 4103.. two of each so i'm guessin it might be somewhat expensive, and thats why Shea didnt include them in the kit. either way i would have tho, since currently i dont have a complete kit. anywayz i'll update in a few days when things settle and i can install them.

I don't think they're expensive at all, which made his $800+ "deluxe" kit so ridiculous.

omg thats so much $$!! but i dont care.. i'm gonna do this right. gettin the hinges powdercoated as soon as i can so that they dont rust up or anything. but sadly it'll be a while til i get em in. few weeks i'd say.. sorry guys i wont have pix for a while.

If anyone has some blue prints of these lambo kits I can email them to my brother and have them made at the shop he works at for cheaper than what they are now.

My brother operates a laser that cuts equipment for the military and stuff so they got everything we could need to get it done. Could even have them made of kevlar if thats what people wanted lol.

heh, I volunteered as well. My old man is manager of a huge boom shop. We can make anything out of steel.

ok.... Shea's lame. today i got a bill from UPS Canada saying i owed $40+ for customs! WTF SHEA?? he didnt put it as a gift, so i am now forced to pay WAY more than i should, not to mention i still have no shocks, and i have to get the hinges powdercoated cuz they look all rusty. kinda changing my opinion on this deal..

I still say you should draw up some cheesy blue prints of the things so we can get a more reliable source for these. Screw Shea, he sounds like a boner to me
