yeah....hard to get the $$....2 kids, stay at home wife, mortgage ...Painted lowers low on the list.
but that is not to say it will never happen. But the car is 3 years old and hard to justify the additional 600, I will think it over while watching the new DLP......

The LCD was the Projection type. Sony Vega. 42 inch. the LCD pannel died in 1.5 years.
Ive been a Sony guy for 15 years since i bought my first 20 inch TV at Costco in 89. Time to move on bought the samsung at Costco for 2700. 56 inch- great picture, even came with the matching stand. Same setup at goodguys, 4K.

Re: Ive seen one other. ...it was a blue one on Ebay
Costs.
Bumper $416
Grills. $148
Valance $134
paint $1300. also painted hood, and fenders. car was in a sand storm and the front was pocked up
In the paint cost. the valance was painted - to match the lowers. as it comes primed. - however to paint the rest of the lowers would have added $600 to the bill.

ha...i understand...enjoy the TV
I personally chose the 19" TV and painted lowers, but then again, i don't have wife, children, mortgage to deal with, so decision making is admittedly easier...

DAMN that's expensive
it only cost me $350CDN (about $280US) to get both parts of the USP front bumper and the door blades painted. Did an amazing job too, with scratch-resistant hardener and buffed it out
guess I got an amazing deal!
