The support means everything, thank you so much!
I'd be more than happy to have you at the shop. I'll keep the forum posted the biggest challenge for me has been finding the right location and commercial/industrial space. If anyone here ends up finding me the right location, Ill Raptor Line their rig for the cost of parts at this point!
Again, I really appreciate your support. I'd be proud to be able to line your Jeep or even just have people visit the shop. As for the girl, I'm certainly keeping her! We met freshman year at our university and she's been there for me since. I'm glad to have someone so supportive knowing I'm taking a risk trying to open up a business given the times we're in.
I honestly couldn't tell you. He had purchased it before I got my hands on the Jeep. It wasn't perfect whatever it was and you can tell in the video that right above the Trail Rated badge the fitment was off. I'm pretty sure it was a fairly inexpensive steel hood. Sorry I couldn't be of more use!
I guess it's a cycle for everyone and we end up realizing what you're saying! I know the good karma comes around for us and we don't regret the help we gave because after all, the Jeep community always finds a way to give back. In my case, just reading all of these responses has been enough for me and I can't thank everyone enough for taking the time out of their day to read and join the conversation here. Thanks for looking out!
Thank you so much! It takes a lot to commit to such a permanent finish that's not only matte but textured. It certainly gives it a more rugged look, but it's definitely not for all. In the end, I think it's more practical for harsh trail use, but maybe not for those who enjoy their glossy paint.
I think by far the most important interaction for a creator that someone can perform is liking a video! Thank you so much and I hope you were able to enjoy the video as well!
Or NH ?Let us know once you opened your shop in the Boston areathis is def something my JT could be interested in
It means the world to me and the channel, thank you! A thumbs-up on the video is paramount for YouTube to see the video worthy of promoting in suggested videos and the browse feature.
My girlfriend and I went to Portsmouth just a few weeks ago to check out NH as well. She works north of Boston about 30 minutes so NH is certainly an option! In fact, I think both she and I would fit in NH more than Boston haha. she grew up skiing in VT and I've always been into Jeeps and raced DH and enduro mountain biking in college. My offer stands in that I'll definitely make a deal with anyone who can help me find a location for a shop! I think the lack of sales and income tax may help although I haven't done the math with respect to the increase in property tax.
Just leave off any canned "what's loosely called" music, I'd rather listen to finger nails down a chalkboard or a metal grinder.
The options for copyright-free music are slim these days. I try and keep the background music as neutral as possible, but better options require a license and that's just not something I'm willing to add to my budget at the moment. I appreciate the honest feedback though, I'll be able to allot money for these music services one day, I just need to prioritize elsewhere for now!
understandable it just sucks to start having some of them blasting out loudly in middle of night and like. 
the grinder is free ?
