Going back to stock! Lots of RARE CF parts, etc!
Tuesday, January 13, 2009 9:17 AM
Hi Guys,

I have not been around here in years - some of you know me as the guy from Blue Cav Customs. I ran a small business here for awhile, sold a lot of carbon fiber and brushed aluminum parts, made a lot of friends and also pissed off a few people...

Bottom line is that I am going back to stock. Business went under a while back and a lot of what I have on the Blue Cav is one-of-a-kind and will never be made again (at least by me).

I would prefer to meet people in the northern VA area so that most of these parts can be swapped out with stock ones, but I am willing to arrange shipping situations where we both get our parts around the same time. I can send COD if that makes anyone feel better. I only want to swap for stock parts in good condition - I am sad enough as it is to be doing this - I at least want to drive a nice stock car.,,

Here is a listing of what I have available and the parts I need to swap...pics soon to follow

Carbon Fiber armrest (made by titus and a very nice piece)
need stock armrest

Carbon Fiber HVAC face with silver icons printed on it and Chrome knobs from the guy in Canada (forget his name - Roy?)
need stock hvac face and knobs

Triple Pod Guage with Voltmeter, Oil Pressure and Air/Fuel mix. These are custom from Speehut and feature blue LEDs in the needles and brushed alum dial covers. All lettering on these is blue. These have a lifetime warranty from Speedhut but do work fine. I will NOT be able to remove the sender for the OP guage from my engine block.
need stock D/S pillar cover as this is attached to my old one and has been drilled. I will label all wiring to make it easy for you.

Complete set of engine caps from the guy in Canada, lol. These are beautiful and custom. I had them powdercoated in a nice candy blue and they feature cf centers with silver icons. need stock caps

CF Radiator cover - rare to find this anymore - used to be sold by RK Sport. Mine had been lovingly cared for but is 6 years old. Has very slight yellowing in a couple of areas but very limited cracking, etc. It is a whole piece and very nice for its age.
need stock radiator cover.

CF sunroof slider - one of the prides of my interior and one-of-a-kind. See pic below. CF is smooth and flawless - very nice piece!
need stock slider

Custom Sirius Radio built into dash. This is the pride of my modding days and my interior. Dash is in great shape and I have all wiring, antenna etc. In my car and working right now. The Sirius/XM merger means that I am going down to one radio. need stock upper dash in great shape.

Carbon Fiber fuel door - very nice piece in great shape. Need a blue stock one, though.

Please email me at strafingrungames@yahoo.com to make offers. Thanks!

On my way to get pics...

Sunroof Slider


Engine Caps


Sirius Radio Custom Dash


CF Radio Cover


Pod Gauges and Cluster - turn sigs, needles, all warning icons light up in blue!


Engine Bay...


Rear View...


Such a sad time for me...she was so beautiful but I don't have the time or disposable income to keep up with her any more. Hopefully I can part her out and keep the dream alive in many small ways and hook some of you guys up.

I am literally almost bawling right now!

If you see anything not mentioned, please make me an offer. I am not in a position where I have to let this stuff go to pay bills, etc. so I will be only be accepting offers that are realistic. All of this stuff has been well-cared for and polished, protected , obsessed over, etc. and some of it will literally have to be pried out of my hands - but it does need to go!

Thanks again!

Steve

how much for the engine caps

Let me check to see if RK still has a price on that radiator cover...and I don't remember what I paid for the armrest...I was hoping that you guys would make offers so I would not have to try to attach a price to anything, lol

I will add a price to these two when I get back from my web research in a bit...

Here is a pic of the armrest - the CF window switch was sold a long time ago...


and yes, I am the one with the custom garage...lol


there is a thread on JBO somewhere with lots more pics called Pics of my Custom Garage or something like that if anyone wants to bother to search...and yes it is still awesome and I plan to keep it pristine to help sell my house in a few more years...lol

Looks like the RK Sport CF radiator cover is no longer available for the Cavs but they sell one for the Sunfire for a little over 200 bucks. Mine is used, of course...a few little hairline cracks, etc but you can really only see them close-up.

I am going to go with a starting asking price of 100 bucks for the radiator cover and I am not going to be too picky about the condition of the used one I get in return as long as it is decent. I will pack it extremely well to protect it and shipping is free with stock part shipped to me in return.

Best offer emailed to strafingrungames@yahoo.com by 4pm EST time today gets it.

Armrest, I honestly cannot remember what I paid titus but it had to be around 75-100 bucks I'm sure. Make me an offer to my email.
On interior parts I need stock parts in good shape because my interior looks like new. You can probably get them cheap from the dealer, eBay etc. I'm looking to get around 50 for the armrest but I'll let you guys bid.

Engine caps - I know for a fact that I paid a ridiculous price to get them made plus the carbon fiber detail work I did and the powdercoating. I have at least 200-300 bucks invested and they are MINT. Make an offer to my email. I am not too worried about what the replacement caps look like but you mayeneed to get from a junk yard so you can drive your car while you wait for mine. I need to drive my car every day unfortunately (one of the reasons I am going back to stock).

I'd like to get at least 100 bucks plus stock versions for the caps. They are one-of-a-kind. But they need to be sold so let me know what they are worth to you.

Thanks!

Steve

The carbon fiber sunroof slider is in perfect condition and I am pretty sure one of a kind. I will include the graphite-dyed rubber moulding that goes around it.

BUT I want in the neighborhood of 150-200 bucks for that piece. I had to work on that template forever and the carbon fiber plate alone cost me well over 100 bucks. There are no scratches of any kind on this piece and it will be something that no one else has. I really do not want to get rid of this one in a bad way.

Send me an offer, though!

Any further questions can be sent to my PM so we don't clog up the boards with this. I will be checking and updating here as needed, though.

Thanks,

Steve

PS- if you don't have the stock part to send me or dont want to, I am willing to work things out as far as getting prices from the dealer and seeing how to adjust things around. All I want out of this is a decent stock car and a little percentage of the cash I dropped on this car. I know that it is not realistic to expect anything NEAR what I put in, but its always nice to get something back for your time, etc.

I would love to get the slider, but don't have the money for that right now. Sucks all the parts I want come along at the wrong time. I have always wanted that slider.

Sad to see you selling things off man your car was always a good one.

You have any plans for something else or just stepping away from the car scene for awhile?

stepping away from the scene. Just can't keep up with the whole thing any more. It's tough to keep a car looking good when you drive it 50 miles every day. One rock chip on a rim or body kit, etc and it ruins the whole thing. Plus I don't have time for the regular washings, going to shows, etc that I used to. I am getting old...

how much for the Carbon Fiber ignition coil cover??? or is that sold already.





Re: Going back to stock! Lots of RARE CF parts, etc!

Let me check on the condition of that part - I think it is OK but I have to see if I can remove it without breaking it. It was attached with 3m tape.

If so, I will sell it for 25 bucks. brb

Tuesday, January 13, 2009 1:36 PM
Wojo,

Part came off fine with no damage at all. I stripped the old 3m backing and applied nice new tape. I will sell this shipped for 20 bucks if we can seal the deal today. Add 10 bucks if you want to change the chrome Ecotec logo to any other color (I work in a sign shop).

LMK - thanks!
