umm....i have no prob with him spending his money...<it just doesnt make sense if i do>

but all im trying to say is : be smart about it...
ure spending on 1000 for doing the bodywork??
another on kit and paint??

dood....i used to auction off cars and i can tell u that 2 grand can get you CARS...read that..CARS....not just body panels...
even in the market....hatches are getting pretty cheap....im sure you can find one for 2000....
i just dont think its wise to take it to a shop and spend 2 grand on it....

but in the end....it really IS your car and ur money....
