    The problem with this is that there are ZERO E28s on the local market, it has been a long time since I have seen a cheap one.

      The real problem with this is that your time spent equates to $0.50/hr by the time you actually see the profit.

            It's good that there are people like you out there so that people like me don't have as much competition.

                  What tint places have you guys been using recently? I've used tinteks, but it's just too far away. I forgot how bright the sun is in a car without tint so the Golf R needs tint soon. I had McDonald VW do the clear bra and they actually did an incredible job for a decent price, lifetime warranty, 3M materials, etc. They want a ton for tint though.

                    Who has an extra M20B25 crank position sensor?

                    I seem to be one short.

                    ...not to direct attention away from Brad's question.... I have never in my life had a car tinted, so that is why I have no input.

                        If anyone is looking for a Nikon D40 with a 18-55mm non-VR lens then shoot me an offer.

                          Sam that sensor has been making my engine purr for over a year now.

                          I used clear tint in Boulder, but they aren't cheap either.

                            Word. You are in Brighton, right?

                            Yes so it seems. What your sensor is certainly not doing, however, is giving spark and fuel to my M20.

                              This place? http://clearchoicetint.com/

                              That is within walking distance of work for me, so that could work well.
