Bought my first 2nd gen

Picked up this car this weekend. Currently non-running. Have not started to troubleshoot it yet but was told that it does not have spark on any of the plugs.

Almost any metal yard will take it, Call ahead and see what the requirement is to bring it in. Some require that the Gas tank is removed and the tires.

They are paying around $6 per 100 right now, and the price keeps going up.

the wheels, not really a hot item but im sure you can get at least $50 for them.
the tails are one of the first things converted on an s4, so they are in pretty high demand.

LOL at the japanese stickers on the back.. Nice s5 tails they can net you at least 150.00, and looks like you might have an aftermarket exhaust there. Gotta laugh at the wheels, they are on backwards.. Hey hades any good stocks lately? check out EBOF they just bought into an ethanol company. I would like to see what your imput is on them..

Edit* s5 sideview mirrors too

I had not even noticed that the wheels were not matched up correctly.

Exhaust is just tips.


In stocks. POZN, I will check ebof.
