Red Powder Coated AMG Surge Tanks 55k

I have a set of power coated AMG surge tanks for sale. Price is set at 300 plus paypal fee, you will have to return your OEM ones to me after you have installed this. Powder coating is resistant to fading due to the heat in the engine bay
If I know you I will not charge a deposit

Might be true but this universally an a**hole thing to do in someone's For Sale thread. With this set you wouldn't have any downtime if the car is your daily. Also, maybe a perspective buyer doesn't know any powder coaters but knows Shardul is a good guy? Bottom line is if you don't want them, don't buy them, but either way stuff your opinion in someone else's thread. Bad taste.

BTW Shardul if you get a set in gloss black let me know

Yes that is F-ed up to jump a great members FS thread. I think you are ripping off the whole community with remarks like that and by your post, bring nothing to the site.

I have a set of Gun metal AMG tanks for sale at 350.00, if anyone wants them? Why? Cuz gun metal sounds cool and cost more.. lol

No it is because he has been a member much longer than you , has more history dealing" PROPERLY " with other members , and he wouldnt post remarks on someone's else post for absolutely no reason what so ever , just to mouth off...I am curious .. have you spent the $100 and got yours powder coated ? if you have , then great good for you , if not , then there are plenty of members here who know what it cost to do a proper powder coating , trust me , they dont need your advise .

^This.

Plus he is a valued member because Shardul helps a ton of people work on their projects, offers good advice based on his experiences and is generally a good guy.

Based on your retorts I can tell none of these are things you hold in high regard, but others do and that's why you see people rushing to his defense while condemning you. If your sole purpose here to truly be an 'instigator' then I highly recommend other forums, like your local 'street scene' where flaming and being a general nuissance are appreciated. However, if you continue this behavior, I'm sure you will find out what others like you have, you are not welcome here.

Regards

I guess I don't understand why people are getting so upset because I informed people they have other options. So flame on none of you people know me or what I can bring to this board.

No one has 'flamed' you. We are simply saying if you do have something to bring to the thread other than mis/underinformed posts, then please do so, but even now all you are doing is trying to defend your original post which was done in bad taste and offered nothing to a reader besides your attempt to undermine this for sale thread.

With that said, I am going to let this be a For Sale thread again and not clutter it up any further.

Shardul best of luck with selling those man and I may be in touch soon for that gloss black set. They look very good.

Ok Let me see if I can spell it out .. you say " If he can sell them for that price more power to him " .. GREAT , thats the point here .. your comment is is inappropriate IN THIS POST because it serves to undermine someone else right to post and ask what he wants for what he is selling . You have advise for fellow members on costs of powder coating..then the W211 AMG or non would be the proper place to post your advise.
Sorry to the OP , and best of luck with your sale... if I can fit these on my N/A engine I would buy them right away.
