Anyone can give you some made up email addresses, I'm asking if you had people on this board vouch for him?
If not I would suggest you cancel that check asap and Ask it be sent COD.

Hmm, Navy acct? Sounds like one of the Scammers that was recently listed in my Sticky Classifieds post. Look through there next time and also ask in that post and on the board.

Now Im curious... wouldnt it make sense to put the Mugen hood with the Mugen bumper since they were designed together?


Hey this has been bugging the hell out of me... Am I in the presence of THE milfhunter? I cant help but see how Mike K's trip to Canada coincided with the website... If you are THE hunter... You sir are the man.
