Racing beat full turbo exhaust! around 700USD but totally worth the money. Thats my goal exhaust

If its just a muffler, **** that.

oh yea, btw, JUST for safetys sake, make a record of whats going on and leave it at your house, in the form of a letter or word document. Include all the details like his #'s and stuff.
I find it really odd that he didn't want to talk to the police, and he's willing to pay everything off in cash. He might be on the brink of losing his licence and can't afford to get his licence suspended or have his insurance triple over possible multiple accidents beforehand. but there is that small chance that he's involved in legal trouble with the police, bigtime, and he's trying to avoid the police at all costs. At that point last thing you want to do is **** him off or something..

call me paranoid but theres two good reasons to do this

-You live in the states
-Better safe than sorry right?

i dont see why everyone likes racing beat...too quiet, plus the tips looks totally weak. sorry, just in my ricer opinion. besides, exhaust is not really something that merrits 800 dollars if you ask me, money could be well spent on many different things(including a cheaper exhaust). but then again if you are trying to squeeze the most free stuff out of this guy, i guess it makes sense to go with a nice pricey system haha. good luck

I wasn't there, I didn't see this guy..........but, I'd be cautious. Too many wacko's out there. I be real careful trying to get more than you deserve. This guy might flip.

of course, this is just my opinion

Dude, you need to go to the police right now! This guy is hiding something. He probably won't even show.

Wait untill you price getting the bumper fixed. It will be alt least $200 to get the on eyou have refurbed.

Ask me how I know??? Just went throught this two months ago.

I say GReddy power extreme cat-back exhaust. I got it on my '90 N/A and have no complaints. Great tone, too!

get prices from the dealer for the exhaust and take it to an expensive body shop for an estimate to paint the rear bumper. should be close to $1k for it all.

They will just give you a check for how much they think your exhaust and bumper are worth and you can do whatever you want with the check.

^thats pretty shitty, how do they find out its value, what determins it? If its a lowball offer can you goto the dealership and get a quote, show them (if its way more) and they'll pay you out for what its worth?
