My friend bought everything from Car Trend, what you think?
I got nothing to do with this but he told me he got a good deal from Car Trend.
Here the story, he ask Wai, the owner of Car Trend, whatever his name is..
Wai offered him 98 gsr motor from Canada for 3,500 dollars with 15k mileage.
He took it in and wait for months, it was swapped and he picked up his car. Overall the installation cost him 1,500 dollars plus 300 dollars for gsr intake that doe not include with gsr motor and to fix his rear suspension that went terribly wrong, wtf. Also his DX exhaust was broken somehow. Now he paid total of 5,300 dollars. Last year, he got the skunkwork suspension and kyb shock for 400 dollars, plus his 17inches tmw wheels with set of kumbo ecsta 712 tires that total of 2,500 dollars, 100 dollars for ingligo gauge, he paint his stock hood black with chinese letter which phase the word "dragon", that a 100 dollars more. Plus he bought his car in Manassas for 3,000. He screwed his Dx motor and tranmission was shot dead, had to replace the clutch which cost him 700 dollars. So far what I know he spent on his car about 12k. Every thing what he got on his car, everything from Car Trend. I told him it waste of money and Car Trend ripped him off big time. I am very shock that he doen't see Car Trend ripping him off after I show him the website of motors to purchase over the internet. He believe ordering parts from good source honda parts online won't do any good. He not reckless with the car, very reckless with the money.
He really got rip off big time. He will keep buying there for his whole life.
