    dude i say why does it matter if they are off ebay they use the same electronics and most of them now come with a 1yr warrantee. they are proly ganna last, and if they dont they send you a replacement so where are you ganna find a better deal for around $50 even if they last just over a year im pretty sure it would be worth my $50..
    just my thoughts on it..

    OK so heres what I did today.

    I changed my thermostat cause its never been changed and my car takes a while to heat up when its cold so I think it was getting stuck open.

    I also changed out the front water outlet with one I started to polish just cause I might as well.

    Installed the brackets to hold the brake lines.

    Raised up the car like a half inch.

    Changed my tranny fluid.

    Heres pics :)

    Thanks. The seats are awesome. Very comfortable and sturdy. They're collision tested for 15g and even tho the weren't my top choice for brand, they were 130 total for both brand new so theres noo way I can complain.

    i was wondering if you had used nightshades, its a paint made for that, i had used it once but when i sprayed it with clear it didnt turn out right, they kinda looked matte.
    but i like how yours turned out

    Thanks. I was looking at the VHT night shades, but its like $20 bucks. The rc car stuff was $5 or $6. Also, the reason yours came out matte looking is probably because you sprayed the clear from to far away or didnt put a thick enough coat. Putting a pretty thick coat, but not too thick is what makes it shine nice.
