He also states that he owns a collision center out of his shop and so that is where the additional parts would go. Now if the Kit cost 5-6k (I checked) and he's charging 10-15k depending on my options that he told me, "WHY IN THE HELL WOULD I WANT TO GIVE HIM MY PARTS FROM MY CAR ???" especially for free ??? I mean I am paying full price for his parts "right" or am I being unreasonable ? any thoughts?
You own a Dusk Edition, don't mess with it. You won't be happy when you're done and you have cheap parts hanging on your car with scotch tape.
