Hello again everyone,

Just heard back from the mechanic. So far he said he`s figured out all of the problems but he`s still going to have another mechanic look at it:

Both rims are scratched and bent - he has sent them for repair to see if they are still repairable. He said each rim costs $1100 brand new.

The fender and the frame thing under the door that goes all the way to the back will be another $1200 to repair without the paint. (

)

There is also a rod bent on the back wheel which needs to be put replaced - $400.

Suspension so far seems to be ok unless the other mechanic says theres a problem.

Everything is what I thought it would be, but can someone please shed some light on the rims.

I like the rims specially the ones in the back as they are `staggered` and really go in with the depth, but 1100 for one rim seems too much. I found some cool rims here for half the price for one: Wheels Tires Rims - Custom Car Truck Chrome Discount Cheap

Any information on rims please... I was going to get a new set of rims anyways and use the old ones for winter. Please advise, as I don`t want to spend $2400 just for 2 rims.

Thanks!! Pretty happy nothing serious has come out yet and everything seems cosmetic.
