22463, Free parts FTW!
Posted by cs82685, Mar-25-07 01:44 PM
Went to an Evo meet yesterday and made out like a bandit. Spent $10 on dinner and came home with a two piece B&M shift knob, and the low spoiler that I was told came stock on the '03s, to take place of the gigantor wing that comes stock on the Evo. It's painted black too. Sweet considering I wanted to tone it down and was planning on removing the wing or getting a low spoiler at some point this summer


Anyone else luck out like this before?

no.

I can't even find a decent 2g awd with a screwed up engine to swap a 6-bolt into. i want a turbo!!!!!

nice find with the parts though. that low spoiler will look waaaaay better. i like the evos with the small one.

Post a pic of what the differences are between spoilers. I thought they were all the same?

I've gotten a free manifold and j-pipe from my one friend. (He's on this site forgot his sn).

In return I gave him a 14b actuator and I'm going to give both parts back as I bought an EVO III (manifold) and had to get a dejon j pipe for my front mount lol.

So I guess I got lender parts for free.

I got free foglight inserts, dirt cheap almost-new-foglights for $70, free side mirrors and a free car cover from Destruckeclipse, plus he stores a shit load of my car parts at his house free of charge and helps me on all if not most of my installs/fixes. I think I lucked out like that before :7

I got a set of brand spankin' new headlamps once. Was just hanging out at a meet and I had cracked one and this random guy I've never met said he had a pair he didn't want and just gave them to me. He refused to take any money or anything. Pretty cool.

I'm getting a nice set of sway bars here in a week. Guy wants to go back to stock and needs the stockers and said he'd give them to me if I did the work.

The low spoilers look pretty clean INMHMFO. Nice score!
I still want to get rid of mine. I need to find someone with an rs who wants to trad so I don't have to deal with the holes. :thumbsdown

I bought Trickee's old motor off of him and I thought I was just getting a long block, he just kept on giving me more stuff, SS bolts and nuts, gaskets, he even gave me his old manifold and various other odds and ends
