the VR6 car got a dinged fender. the cost to repair would total the vehicle because the FMV of the car is like 1000$. and NOS fenders arent available… so, shop time, plus materials + other parts would have cost well over a grand. how the coupe came about:dave and i went to CT to where the coupe was. swapped a few things around between the cars, kid came and bought the 4 door from the place we were getting the coupe. bought coupe. put steering wheel from 4 door in the coupe… you dont know what youre talking about, stop assuming. silence yourself, listen and learn
