I bought a Viper from a guy in OHIO. It was in good condition but it was very Dirty. He had a little girl and I don't think he had time to be anal. I have a friend that details sleds. As I stated this sled was nasty. Take a look now

Pipes and more

As you can see the pipes look Bad. I'm going to have them Redun Right. CCPERFORMANCE is the only place to have stuff coated. I had My SRX pipes done and they looked like new for 3 years. These CPR pipes were coated 1 year ago and they look like crap. CC didn't do them originally and it shows.

You can also see in the pic's the Former owner had a hard time fitting these pipes. He beat them with a hammer to make them fit. Not good. I'm going to pull out the dents and weld any cracks prior to getting them coated.

Don't know what domes they are but it pulls about 145 pounds of compression. I did a leak down on it and it has 4% across the board. the motor is solid!! ;)!

I'll post pics on the pipes as soon as they are done.

What do you mean he "details" sleds??? Is it a hobby or a business? I have never heard of that before...I know guys who detail their own sleds but not for others...if it is a business what would you charge for a service like that?


Good guy to know I guess :dunno:

He does cars as a side biz. He does the sleds once in a while on the side. If you look closely the sled looks like brand new. I really wish i would have took before pics. It's insanely clean now.

He wanted 40.00 to do It I felt bad and said I'll give you 50.00 because it's so Dirty when i got there I had 3 fresh 20.00's and I said we are all set I was so impressed.

He even armoraled the Track!!!!
 
$50????

Man....all the effort I put into "cleaning and polishing" my sled in time alone is worth 10 times that.

That's a good guy to know! I would pay double that if he did that nice of a job!
