  1. So I FINALLY received my estimate today from this douchebag. Here's what he had to say:

     

    1. Dig and pour footer from house around complete outline of bump out App: 4’ x 10’.

    2. Lay up block foundation to correct height.

    3. Frame in new bump out area

    4. Install 2 new double hung windows

    5. Install new full glass door

    6. New siding and wrap on exterior

    7. Tie in and shingle new roof

     

     

    Total $4560.00

     

     

     

    Here is my response:

     

    Thanks for getting this to me. However, items 4 and 5 are not what I asked to have done. I do NOT want a door on the bumpout. I want windows all around.

     

     

     

    Yeah, so I won't be using this guy. He'll probably re-quote it and then I'll tell him to piss off because he didn't listen to what I wanted and took 3 weeks to send me a quote.

  2. Yeah, I definitely want to be able to check out someone's work before I sign or hand over a deposit. That would just be foolish to do that. And I definitely don't want to use someone that does it on the side. I am looking for a real company that is established.

     

    Sam, I'm not sure how this works, but if I'm able to tell a company that I would like to provide my own person for the foundation work, I will contact you. I don't know if companies are set on using their people or what.

  3. I'm looking for someone reputable to do some remodel work on my house. There is a section of wall on the back of my house by my kitchen that I want knocked out and converted to a bay window sitting area.

     

    A guy came out about 3 weeks ago to give me a quote. He said he would e-mail me in a couple days. Still no e-mail and I've called him a couple times. So, I've decided not to do business with this chump.

     

    Recommend me someone that will follow up with a potential customer and will do good work.

  4. Damn I misjudged the response to this thread by a mile. I figured someone else would say this, but here goes.

     

    You are a fucking moron, you put valuable shit in your car that you tint and you park on the street in the campus area? Not only that I bet you play it at least some what loud so that it can be heard. So you most likely "mark" yourself. Then next you are going to tell me you don't even put a fucking $100 alarm on the car to give some kind of deterent? Then after all of that you replace it and still do nothing like buy a cheap alarm? Now you want sympathy and you are getting here from people? WTF, you spend all that money and can't buy a fucking alarm? Yep Like I said you sir are a fucking moron. I think it is crazy to think that only the same people would come back and steal again, "Lightning could not strike twice" As the officer said in this thread you have tinted windows, it's marked.....

     

    Holy shit I can't explain the amount of fail in this thread.

     

    I thought it, but decided not to say it. He'll learn...eventually.

  5. Congrats! I did the same thing winter 07/spring 08. I pulled the trans myself and shipped it to texas for the rebuild. i reinstalled the new clutch and rebuilt trans myself without a trans jack or lift. It was my first time for such a project. I printed out directions from LS1Tech, which helped a lot. It does feel great when you are able to accomplish something like that on your own.
  6. You fail at turning the wheel the correct direction for pictures.

     

     

    Doh!! I wondered how long it would take for someone to say something. I was in a hurry this morning when taking pics. I'll get it right next time.

  7. Yeah, I know. It needs tint and lowered. Hopefully I'll get to do both this year.

     

    Thanks for all the compliments.

     

    By the way, I fucking hate bugs!! Anybody have a good way to get bugs off the bumper without scratching it all to hell?

  8. Today is her first day out of hibernation. Changed fluids, wiped her down and applied a coat of scratch x remover stuff and a coat of high gloss wax stuff.

    Took some pictures before she hit the road. I'm trying to decide which one I would like to use as a sig pic. Any suggestions? You can check my album for all the pics, but here's a few that I like.

    A co-worker drove his Mustang to work today, so I snapped a few pics. This is my favorite:
