Do you think I can sell this Corolla Hybrid for a profit?

@mbrock5532 says:

Go to O'Reilly's and ask for their Value batteries. They're in the back and cost less than $100 with a one-year warranty. Perfect for a car you're fixing to sell.

@HansonAuto says:

Headliners are the worst… Ive done 1 and they are no fun at all. Found it is easier with thinner versus thicker material.

@NickWilliams-b5t says:

Mum to the rescue

@NickWilliams-b5t says:

No suit when spraying ? Got to look after your self mate

@westdieselservice6499 says:

I can help you with a headliner. How far are you from Vancouver?

@shanew3293 says:

Find a mobile Headliner installer.. they can fix it up. Good Job BTW..

@mariusvanwyk1999 says:

Dude, fix the color mismatch. That does not look good

@kenmeyer5930 says:

sometimes there are small businesses that redo headliners. can be an economical choice. possibly use your already purchased fabric. good luck.

14:58 my front bumper cost 400. For a damn mirage and yes aftermarket. Theres a trim around a foglight that the dealer want 250 for. I glued it on. So I should of gotten a corolla.

@PainDeVie648 says:

This is awesome! Well done. But it really explains why insurance companies will write off a car very easily. Modern cars are so complex, so there is an incredible amount of stuff that can go wrong.The insurance company probably finds it easier to write the car off. The owner is happy, and there is no hassle of repair work being shoddy. It’s also a reason why I likely would never buy a rebuilt car, unless it was massively cheaper. You do a thorough job, but I imagine a lot of places try to cut ever corner imaginable. Not exactly what you want for a car you’re buying!

Look forward to seeing what you do with this car. If you drive more than 25,000 km (15,000 mi)/yr, keep the car. The gas savings and reliability alone will make it worthwhile. God bless!

Keep it going brotha!!! Happy to see this video

@JoshuaCarbaugh-f6x says:

The whistling sound in the background of the video had me tripping thinking of someone in my room, whistling at me I had to keep pausing the video and start a video to make sure I wasn’t tripping

@LaventiranYuwaraja says:

can you do e60 build

@RandyIsham says:

I didn’t see much on the headliner you guys kind of quit kind of fast but that could be just a video. But M3 makes a tacky glue spray. That you spray down and then you rub really hard on each section. I would get some clamps on one side and work your way to the other and why you’re doing this you’re pulling tight and rubbing it into the tacky spray use maybe the squeegee from doing Bondo and slowly work it till it gets tight.

Guten Morgen

@mdrahinzaman1980 says:

Was waiting for it! Visited your channel multiple times to see if I have missed this vidoe or not. :')

@smithsalvage3577 says:

Hey man don’t know what part of Washington your in, but if your near a pick and pull they always have tons of refurbished/used batteries

@Kellenwrona says:

can’t wait for the g80 build

@worldhello1234 says:

17:17 I'd start to get the hood and front bumper from a breaker yard or scrap yard for a better or near perfect color match as long as the price is close enough.

@2oneil says:

I have a 2024 toyota corolla Le, the back bumper is paper

@Canadian787 says:
