You should have waited a bit longer to gather the funds and taken it to Seb. I'm still confused why you wasted money taking it to another shop. Deja vu all over again it seems. Good luck with the repairs.

Nah it's because I scheduled to bring it to him on the last week of June so he could work on it the first week of July. I had that set in stone with him, that's why xD

I wouldve just postponed instead of cancelled. That would be like wanting to get an FI CBE. You saved up for 4 months, but still 300 dollars short, and settle for an Ebay special instead.

The thing is his schedule is always booked, so if I postponed it to another date it would have been a ton later, lol. Guess this is what happens when I am impatient, hardheaded and stubborn. Oh well. Used to it by now, sadly! haha.

And that's your reasoning for taking it to an inferior shop?

That doesn't make any sense...

If you want to throw money away. Throw it my way. You wasted money and time taking it to the OTHER shop.

You had a plan. You should have stuck with it. Even if it took you a little long to come up with the cash. Hell, I've been saving up for a set of 4 way JRZ coil-overs for a long time.
