complaints:
#1-consolidated freight shipping-long story-
they tried to "price gouge me& held my kit HOSTAGE for days, waiting to fix their mistake

#2-the forums,,,,yes, these darn forums! I keep reading posts that tempt me to get more HP, or spend more $$$$$ here & there. I used to think I would be happy with a cobra, (but thanks to all you "bad influences" here) I now want a GT40, and a daytona coupe too!
