I haven't even read through all of these, yet, but damn...

About 6 months or so ago, before I moved up north, he sent me a PM, asking me to quote a bunch of work. I couldn't even really understand what he wanted. Stuff like, 'a DD in the dash, maybe 2, and a couple DD's in the back'. By DD, he said that he meant double din, but I still couldn't figure it out.

I asked him to bring the car by, and he said it was too far just to come in for an estimate, but if I gave him a good price, he'd just bring it in to let me start. I asked for pictures of what he wanted, and he sent me all sorts of pics, of all sorts of installs...ranging from simple to insane. I finally just told him that I wouldn't give him an estimate, without seeing the car.

I kicked myself for a little while, thinking that if I had spent more time with this guy, I could have had a really nice, big job...boy, am I glad I didn't...

Sorry you took him on, ImportGuy, best of luck. And by the way, the work you did looks absolutely fantastic!
