Anybody need a set to TPMS sensors. I bought a set about a month ago from a forum member when I thought I was going to different wheels. Will be keeping stock. Paid $100 + 10 for shipping. Let me know if you are interested or barter for spring install?

Doubtful. The stealership always comes out on top even when we feel we made a good deal.

I know of a few instances where they don't make much money. My car when i bought it, they only made $50 off of it.

My car is probably going to sit around there so we'll see. The RWDs ATs at Bloomginton Infiniti sat around a long time and they werent asking anywhere near 16k.

I might be able to use them, my 19s didnt come with them installed. So I have the stupid light inside that keeps flashing at me!

We have situations were we will lose money on a certain car, and then turn around and make a couple Gs off of another car. It all depends on the perceived value, also how much work if any the shop might have to do to it...Janiks obviously wouldnt be much. But you would be surprised with some of the shiz that ppl bring in LOL. They sat on my coupe for quite awhile, but, I'm sure they whole saled it

As I loom to start making some purchases of mods, are there any specific vendors or brands you guys would recommend to buy from or to stay away? Best or worst out there for product quality?

They gave you a ridiculous amount for your coupe though.

My car did need work though. Brakes, fluids, oil change, etc. Needed a lot lol

Yes it was - now if the weather ever warms up, I'd like to get it out of hibernation. As far as what I will do with my free time, pretty much anything I want - may need a pt job if it gets to $5/gal!
