Put me down for 30$ worth.

Cool, we are also going to try and setup an online account so people can buy their ballots ahead of time. For those who cant make it to the show. I’ll put up a post when I have it figured out, hopefully later today.

Put me down for $40 dollars worth

“Brake Upgrade: Russell Stainless Steel Braided brake lines, powder coated callipers, EBC pads and rotors.”

lol @ powder coated “callipers” being considered a “Brake Upgrade”

Well it is a car show…they gotta look nice :slight_smile:

25,000 for a paint job

and 10,000 for upgrades

do we have this in the wrong order or what?

and even with 10,000 dollars I’d be able to do better than painting brake calipers

sounds like a cool idea,
but it needs more thought into where the money goes,etc.

I knew this was going to happen…

$25,000 gets you the most craziest paintjob you could imagine, custom colors and airbrushing. Not to mention the bodywork that is involved. Unless you have a brand new car that just rolled out of the showroom, there is going to be dents, dings, scratches, rust that will need to be fixed before any kind of paintwork can be done.

As for the performance package, it includes all the labour to install all of these parts. We are not painting your calipers either, powdercoating requires full dis-assembly of each caliper and then a full rebuild. Also when is the last time you installed a full urethane bushing kit? That requires basically every part of you suspention to be taken off the car and the old bushings pressed out. Again something that is very labour intensive.
Good luck going to any shop and dropping a list like that and paying less than that.

What you need to do is include some before and after dyno time in that $10g’s :wink:

Haha or better yet…maybe some lap times :wink:

man, I need to quintuple my rates if this is $10k worth of work and parts… last time i did a full bushing kit was on an FC, took ~ 6hrs with frozen bolts to contend with. Not sure about you, since you’ve only been doing this for a few years now, but that works out, with a prothane full kit. ~ $500… powder coating calipers, with sandblasting is ~$250 … with all those product parts listed…

Brake Upgrade: Russell Stainless Steel Braided brake lines, powder coated callipers, EBC pads and rotors.
Suspension package: Tokico adjustable struts, Swift performance springs, Full urethane bushing kit.
Full Custom stainless exhaust.
Custom cold air intake.
Fuel system upgrade.

with similar parts using koni/Eibach/hyperco/Esplier/prothane/ Full custom exhaust/CAI… fuel upgrades…

LOL $10G… wow thats like $5G++ profit potential… but I suppose it’s for charity and you need to up sell the product for a good tax write off and to make it sound juicy.

And free is free… so hey label it what you will… I would not even have bothered to comment except you pulled out that idiot statement about, " good luck finding anyone else to do it for less ", crap… like you were some sort of great deal fairy come to bless those around you with good deals…

Well Ian, I’m sorry that I have to charge $75/hour labour to cover my monthly costs of operating a 4000sq/ft shop.

Can we buy the tickets at the gate kinda deal ? hows that go about

So the ticket(s) could either win you the performance or the paint, or both ;). Anyways how do we go about buying these?

Well if you are at the show, you can come to our booth and buy the tickets there. Or we are working on setting up an online deal where you can enter on our website. Hopefully it’ll be up before the end of the week.

You can win either the paint, or the performance package…not both lol.

^aha i meant like i.e. buy two tickets and both get drawn…well enough dreaming lol. So you do two draws, and pick on ticket per package correct?

Wow, you got a booth there, Thats a big change from “Bruce County”. But some of us still have to work those days. I’ll buy a few online.

I do not really car what what the value of the prize should be, if it is more then the money that people are donating it is awesome because of the cause this is for. Ill be donating for sure.

You are not tied in with RPM Mag at all are you?

Hey Jordan, whats been going on? Last time I saw you was at Dirtpigs at Swiggers place right? haha Walkerton is awesome! Your “new” car is looking wicked too!

No I have no idea what RPM mag is…

Instead of taking the paintjob… can I just take $25,000 in cash?
