Ever not had enough money to repair your car?

So, who want to donate $3,000 for real paint job?
Anybody? Didn't think so.

Why would any one do this, haven't you read the text in the first post?

The Audi, this Audi, not yours, this one, had a ruined paint from someones abusive antics. 2 separate bottles of degreaser and brake cleaner ate their way though the bottles all the way to the sheet metal, scratched ~25-35 times far bound a buff, vandalized, and can be bought for $3,000 all day long on Craigslist.

$3,000 for paint

Some one trashed the rims, all curb checked, used abrasive and clear coat eating solutions that destroyed the rims. The local shops, wanting $250 + time to sandblast, Discount wanting $110 to unmount and remount, $150 for professional paint supplies to re shoot them, and another $430.21 for 2 tires as Discount wouldn't remount the existing ones.

$3,000 for paint + $940.21 = $3,940.21

Go ahead geniuses, drop $4,000 for paint and a rim re-finish on your old B5 platform, that's all you. Besides, I already have other nice cars and trucks, this is just a beater.

I can understand that people get personal, they think about their own Audi, this isn't the caliper of your Audi.


YOU SPEND $4,000 REPAINTING AFTER A CROW BAR!

I ALSO WANT MY WINDOWS BACK, MY TOOLS, MY NEW PIONEER LCD DVD, MY TURBO TIMER, MY SHEET METAL DAMAGE REPAIRED, WINDOW TRACKING REPAIRED, MY ENTIRE CENTER CONSUL, AND COMPLETE MB QUART SYSTEM BACK THAT TOOK 2 YEARS TO BUILD!

OH YEAH, EDIT! I ALSO WANT MY BRAND SPANKIN NEW POLISHED METHANOL FULL CELL I INSTALLED THE NIGHT BEFORE BACK! THAT WOULD BE GREAT!
