Wow! Those look absolutely beautiful. I'd assume that the prices for the VQ Intake runner and valve cover polishing would be pretty much the same for the VE. Can you look into this? (I'd ask you via IM, but I'm sure that others can benefit from this dialogue here).

beautiful...just beautiful.
leather shift boots (in sig)
I need an ebrake boot to go with my shift boot
seriously though those are some nice prices on his work (polishing and PC)...if my cousin does a crappy job on the test pieces I give him I may just try and get this guy to do my stuff.

Damn, that does look nice, What's he charge for powder coating rims, say going from somthin like this?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2457607513
to being coated charcoal?
Also, is it possible to make our intake manifolds(VE) bling bling like chrome bling? Might sound like a dumb question, but it just looks like its a diff. type of metal.

and it is much less expensive if you can wait until they do "black" on the other order (or any other color).

1. show me a truck place that will match his prices.
2. show me work from a truck's place.
otherwise you're just shooting BS in the wind.
cheap doesn't mean it's good. you'll learn that one day.
Tom also has excellent customer service...fast turn around...so he's NOT waiting for a batch of stuff to go in. also black is not the only color..he does other colors also.
next time you're trying to help the org (if you're even going to do that) on getting a good deal i'll find a cheaper place so you look like an ****.

Talking of the prices. They would do it much cheaper if the other PC order is in (-makes sense?). But it might take some time (I had to wait 2 weeks). If you want your order done right away - pay retail price.
I I've done a couple of thing there - say, for a bumper job I paid only $CAD25 (cash).
I can't take any pictures right now because my truck is in the storage fo the winter. Sorry.
So ...
1. Not only overprices "racing" workshops do PC. (LOCAL) truck places do PC and do it very often (they serve truck companies and drivers).
2. Come to the place and ask 'em to show thier job (they always have something in)
3. if you can (WAIT) , you pay much (LESS) because your part will be powder coated as a part of other big order. Pay retail or pay less.
4. they take really (LARGE) parts.

show me the pics...and not like 50 ft away. give me some details in the pics. also number to your place you're referring to. do they do mailorder? maybe you can wait but most only have one set of valve covers. unless you have another car on the road it'll quite difficult to have a engine part PC with a wait time of 2 weeks+.
all i'm saying is Tom is reasonable and does a top notch job. you have to come out of the wood work and say that you can find it cheaper elsewhere. why not post that you found a place that does PC BEFORE i posted this? why do you have to chime in when i found a place?? next time you're selling something on line or even find a service i'll be an **** and post a place i found for less.

I don't understand what exactly you are trying to achieve here.
I know that most of members here, on maxima.org, are not aware of such places as truck workshops and what they can do for them LOCALY (no mail-in orders) and save some $$$.
I wouldn't ever use place you are advertising because I LIVE IN CANADA, and not just in Canada but in OTTAWA. And I would never place an order outside of my HOME CITY unless it is something I can't find locally.
Now ... I didn't advertise anything - YOU DID. Folks in NY area might be able to use services in your place. But what about the rest? Mail-in orders?????!!!! Pay for S&H???!!! Wait 2-3 weeks to get it back???!!!
I'm happy that you find this Tom person very entertaining and handy but I don't CARE. I just showed another way to have PC done for maxima.org members ... LOCALY DONE (not everybody on this MB lives in NY area!!!).
And please, stop this BS.

PS: I would send this message just on your e-mail address but you turned it off.

you can show another way on your own thread...not one that i created. it's called hijacking a thread. i'm showing you that you're doing exactly that...so that's my point. don't hijack someone's thread.
it's not just NY...if you actually clicked the link you can see he does service across the country. UPS ground is one week travel time. USPS priority is 3 days. 2-3 weeks? where are you getting this from? maybe in Canada they have slower shipping time.
you don't like to send things...doesn't mean the rest of the world feels the same way.
also where are those pics of your truck stop work?
don't email me...PM work great.

Sorry guys, I got tired of scrolling the screen to the right in order to read each post so I tried to edit my post (delete the pic) but this 1440 minute rule bits. Maybe a moderator can delete my post all together to save you guys the hassle. I'll keep this "big pic post" in mind for the next time.
