Default A LITTLE MUCH?

MONDAY I WENT SEARCHING FOR A WELDER(PERSON) TO DO MY SUBFRAME CONNECTORS. HE TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO REMOVE THE SEATS AND CARPET TO PREVENT HEAT CATCHING THE INTERIOR ON FIRE. THEN HE TOLD ME IT WOULD COST 400.00 TO 500.00 TO DO THE JOB. ANYONE SEE A PROBLEM W/THIS!

yes that is rediculous...go somewhere else. any muffler shop/welding shop will weld them on, you don't have to go to a performace shop

$50-$100

it is a 20 minute job tops

try a muffler shop , and tell them you don't need a reciept...that way the guy who does it will just keep the cash.
