    A bit more news, I ordered my Wet Blasting machine this morning, I am going to call it Lou as it reminds of me the Hulk.

    Lots of other bits and bobs have been arriving in preparation for opening day (mid april) , Phil picked up some killer 2nd hand office chairs and I nabbed a cool 2nd hand desk last week on eBay.

    Prices have always been subject to customer attitude :lolsign:
    Used to know a bloke in a Toyota parts place that never looked up the book price, just went on attitude.

    That's what they have here except it is based on race. It is called falang price.

    Yes, that one, but I don't care, just laugh and walk away. It is really very difficult to compare across cultures. Their take on ripping you off is different than ours because of their obsession with face and a whole lot of other things. I have lots of really positive stories too but this is not the topic of Kiffsta's thread :)

    Looks good. Foresee any legal issues with the exhaust hire? Can't imagine TMR would be happy.
