HARD TIMES
Things must be getting harder with the world economy.
OH MY GOD. "RARE" Keith has put down the price of the trunk mat from $900 to $725. Bargain basement price ![]() |

Considering the stupid thing was $90 dollars new from Toyota, he can go screw himself.
Since it is a rare piece, I might, if im really desperate to have one....pay half that. But still....$700 bucks...come on. |

eBay Motors: JDM 91-99 SW20 MR2 Red Stitch TRD SRS Steering Wheel (item 250312943606 end time Nov-21-08 01:17:46 PST) or even $1500 gauge clusters eBay Motors: JDM SW20 98 Spec MR2 Turbo Red 260km Gauges Cluster (item 220299232032 end time Nov-20-08 23:31:55 PST) |

i mean it's a pretty neat lookin thing, i don't think i've seen any other 2's with it, but JESUS! that it was too much money for that. maybe if it was made out of a material that gave my car 50+hp, made it fly, and go back in time, then MAYBE i'd think about paying that much for it.

You know if someone actually took the hit and bought it they could could easily replicate it and make back all their money.

OMG!!! Is this dude even for real???? We could make a mold of that thing by hand and have it made in carbon fiber for like half of that!!! Heck we could do it for probably a lot less if we did a group buy!
Hey keith- Puff, puff, pass bro! Puff, puff, pass! You know you on something! |

I was about to say that, for that kinda money you could probably have the molds made to reproduce them & the some.... I have messed with carbon fibre, manufacturing my own things for a while, to know that it can be done pretty easily |

What a loser! "No, Very Rare!!" Yeah well when the one he holds on to like some priceless diamond rotts away because he can't sell it for the price he is asking, then they will be even more, "Very Rare"
You know every time I take a crap each turd looks different, I wonder if they are worth a bundle?? Hey they are very rare! lmao that dude is pathetic! |
