Well....a good friend of mine just got a
nice loan and he wants Gullwing Doors on his car. We were talking about it last week, and he said he wants them done. I didn't actually think he would go through with getting a loan and have me do it. It's a 91 Civic that has a bunch of engine mods and the interior is pretty much all done up as well. It just needs paint and a few other small custom things. So, he wants ME to do this mod on his car for him.
Considering I have only done this mod twice before and it was with employees from a professional shop to help me out with it...I have to wonder if I'll be able to do this on my own. I have no fear about doing it, and I'm sure I can have it done with the help of a few friends....but since I'll be doing a majority of the work..it's going to take me at least 3-4 weeks to finish this..compared to where a shop would only have the car for about 2 weeks. I also would have to rent some special tools for the job. He said he would pay for everything that I need and he will also compensate me generously for doing the work. He also wants me to shave all emblems, and his rear lights. He wants small Honda "H"'s cut into the rear bumper and to be used as his brake/turn signal lights. Those things will be very very easy for me to do. And last, he also wants a custom Dupont Maroon with red microflake paint job. Also, not a problem. I'm just wondering if I should take a chance on his doors. I would feel really bad if for some reason they didn't come out the way they should.
What do you guys think I should do? I've been thinking all night about what I should do and I'm cluelss on it. <img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle>
