Yeah those sills are expensive. I'm concocting somthing else instead though. But damn romas, you got that thing with some great options.

4700$ ?? thats crazy good deal...
So where can we get those celica door panels? And doggy, if you run low on money I will be more than happy to buy them off of you! maybe you should make some if its possible (dont lie to us we know you can make anything )a group buy for these would bring you plenty $$$ for lhd conversion -------------------- QUOTE(tufy @ Jul 19, 2006 - 7:40 AM) [snapback]458074[/snapback] i dont drive fast, i just fly low |
