As the Lawyer said, he obviously knew he was getting more than a paint job. You're probably already doing this, but I'd go to every site he posted on, and gather every thread where he bragged about all the 'bad ass' mods he was getting.
Also wouldn't be at all surprised if the 'expensive gear' was also scammed. On second thought I'd be really surprised if he has bought anything over $50 legit.
Best of luck, and set up the paypal account...I'll donate.
