DO NOT VIEW PAST THIS PAGE...


All mentions will be ignored

just like u have been Ignored (U weren't forced to view or comment in the first place)

peeps4u:
But I'm still surprised how 350k did or will do all these transformations. From changing fenders, front and back numbers, grille and other parts of the car to upholstery, painting, AC, Android DVD screen etc

Anyway, enjoy your car.

I wise man once said," u don't know until u know " most body parts like bumper and fender are Belgium, they aren't expensive,ask around u will be glad to get idea how much a Belgium bumper is, thank me later

amstamon:
Thought so too. op moniker( jacoBjamIE) ends with "IE" so also as the laBIE that's been advertised "IE" . unusual coincidence

bros, stop sounding stupid here, if u don't have a good idea on what u just wrote, no be by force to comment, ur theory is just stupid to think Am Mr Labie, if I am don't u think I will just come and tell Nairaland guys what I do and as a Direct Advert? When I see some comments just just assume the person is uneducated to post such

revilomichaels:
You eh
I no like u and the worst part is that you don’t just rant like those kids on Nairaland. U go just dey hammer points that can pain somebody.

The part where I like u is that u helped influenced our story teller to seen video links which we’ve been asking for since the first page.

So, I kinda hate-like u shaa

na just say I no want rush things, it was intentional so una go carry chair seat with bear dey follow the story na, last last know say una go score this car 100%, no worry confidence full ground, u fit still buy Bicycle make Mr Labie upgrade am to Power Bike oh, lol just kidding

williams20:
The hype alone is killing me softly , baba just make sure this car looks like toks else we drag you everywhere
�

I pray Mr Labie don't let me down, oya make una help me pray also lol, don't worry jor, I believe the guy die, him go deliver last last

peeps4u:
It is quite a money well spent if a total of something about 1m to 1.2m, together with cost of car, is spent to bring it 2011 model. Good job.

I hope the engine, transmission and suspension are okay though

was Lucky the Engine and Gear and Suspension is 95% great.... Tyres needs to be changed sha, just 2 of it needs Toks tire, Lucky me Abi?

You are still sounding very suspicious oga...

So you bought the car 650k out of a 1m budget...and na inside 350k u buy upgraded fenders, change car seat leather, buy Android entertainment system for 65k, pay for original Sikkens paint and oven baked, and all other stuff needed to make the car look like toks

And yes,with reference to where you alleged I didn't go to Law School, I actually did...I am a practicing lawyer ....One doesn't need to be a lawyer sef to know this your tale is one kind

I didn't want to reply u cuzz I owe u no further explanations ur proof of what so ever, but I will make u popular here a bit, I couldn't post Video here, reasons I don't know, secondly, 2ndly i don't owe u any explanation what so ever, it's just my experience, I don't see any reason why I should wanna Lie, abi Nairaland dey pay People? Just felt we all need to learn one or 2 things with our Experience that's all, and also carry who ever cares about this Transformation Journey of this car... That's all, suspecious or not, as long as no one Scam u or ask u for money, it's just Irrelevant to be suspecious for Nothing, so follow my story if u wish or Lockup..

buygala:
Boda Uche no make me change am for you ooo ...

Someone is acting suspicious and we should not ask questions because we are fearing Uche face?


Kindly park well Sir

freshvine:
You have idea of the price of animal skin genuine leather fire proof?

No sir, I have no idea, one can't just estimate it cuzz I believe it will be in Yards or Lenths, it then depends on the Quantity u want, then pricing comes in and the cost of a Yard of it

Observations Nairalanders.... NOTE: when a Seller tells u A. C needs Gas, it's working sir but needs Gas, bros than na big lie, 95% of them no be true, why won't he fill the gas before putting up for sale?? Na just like 3k or 4k filling na abi? Na when u buy finish go fill Gas nai them go tell u say na The whole A. C machine Don spoil and na 55k to fix, So let's always assume the A. C component is faulty when told "A. C need Gas" so u go deduct the money to fix a complete set that's if u still like the car oh...
As the guy Don lie about the A. C, e go get plenty things wai him go Don hide from una.... So flee as the spirit leads lolss... UNA HEAR? Correct me if am wrong oh, Oga Mr Sabi it All lolz

uchman:
Oga oversabi,
what do you stand to gain by derailing this thread eh?
Wait now make we learn one or two things abeg,
Op don clear your doubt, why still disturbing him?

Relax and learn oga, no be you know all...

I no come know for the guy oh, me tire for the way him want turn Lawyer for my head yet him no go Law school finish, anyway sha make I continue my experience

mejai:
observing

bros na because na the color of the original interior be that, the footmat, roof and hand rest na that same color, so I no go go put different seat color onto say I like Rainbow? Lol I know say if na u, u go choose Pink or Danfor Yellow.... Lol u know ur type na

freshvine:
OP, there's a difference between faux leather and genuine leather and you can't afford the later in a car cos its expensive .

U are right, but note this, with this my car Experience, Leathers are in Qualities and the price varies, u no go want Original Quality come give am 10k for the price of Original, prices dey for each Quality...... it depends on ur pocket Value, but at least no go for the least even if u no get money for the best, try no carry Last lol

LESSON LEANT : NOT ALL FIRST BODY CAR PAINT IS ROAD WORTHY OR GOOD TO BUY OH, na the mistake 95% of Nairaland buyer make in here when looking for a car to buy. For instance
I saw a car that's not first body due to minor scratch from a child writing ABCDEFGHIJ and he decided to spray it, Not FIRST BODY BUT THE CAR ENGINE AND GEAR PLUS EVERY IS SOUND LIKE TOKS,
And another car that's first body but has been stupidly used and Abused from Engine to gear to Legs, due to Bad Gearbox oil or Engine oil...
Most Nigerian Buyers go pick the First body car just cuzz them dey hear every body dey shout First Body, first body lols.....
AM I MAKE SENSE? IF I NO DEY MAKE SENSE MAKE UNA TELL ME OH, Am always open to corrections lol Mr Know It All lol

Icechillz:
Can I get his contact

why don't u wait till I finish up na, una too fast, anyway sha that's his Number

chineduisaac:
OP why are you advertising for this guy. Is it that you will get a discount or what

sincerely, am not getting a discount but am impressed by what am seeing, and I said to myself I will not keep it alone, I will share my experience with my Nairalanders, since na here I buy the car, I shouldn't take all the glory, in Nigeria we are always quick to downgrade people and not Upgrade them or speak good of there Talents and work,
Na so ANTHONY JOSUAH take Run leave una go Do Boxing for another country oh, cuzz una no appreciate say him Sabi Blow " sorry" Box lol

For this guy above me who thinks otherwise..... Anyway back to my own Story, make we leave those once for them, this one na my own experience,

These are some Upholstery Jobs the Guy did for others, Depends on what u want and how u want it, cuzz I know say Nairaland people get mouth to badmouth A Good job Well done, just like the Oga above this my post,

mejai:
Mr Labie no Sabi sew leather nah. Me no go give am my motor sef
The thing rumple. Check the first seat nah

I intentionally left that for the first person to comment before I hint the first pics.
LESSON NUMBER 1 : Never judge from a books cover, ...... The first Pics is the Old pics the former user made with a Fake leather Matarial that's why it got started and started pulling off, made from a cheap Upholstery Guy,
LESSON NUMBER 2 : SPEND MONEY TO MAKE MONEY, SPEND MONEY ON WHAT U HAVE TO STAND OUT, IT'S UR PRIDE, GO FO THE BEST, DON'T CUT CONNERS, for the former Upholstery guy, Penny wise pounds foolish, if to say na him still get the car, he would have just go for the best than going for cheap low quality job.... FIRST PICS : HARD LOW QUALITY LEATHER, 2ND PICS COZZY AND SOFT QUALITY MATERIAL FOR MY BABYS BABY...

Upholstery ready, but not yet mounted, (Since am doing color change Oven Bake Paint Job) The 1st Picture is the old and turned Seat of the Crv,
the 2nd is the one Mr Labie made, it's Original Leather...... I will post the rest of the pics as soon as I can, later guys

BHyundai:
Oga you wan chop the VIN?

The car is a private property and isn't for sale.

why should I share VIN? For what purpose? Na me suppose dey ask u waiting u want use VIN do?, it's pointless sharing VIN when it won't be for sale, Doubting Thomas, it's not necessary sir,,another Lesson learnt today : Don't always doubt Everything u hear , somethings u might have heard without seeing might just be true, stay Focus sir... (SAME WAY THE TELL US SAY LION DEY EAT PERSON NO MEAN SAY AS WE NEVER SEE AM WITH OUR EYES WE NO GO BELIEVE AM)

DMPaulSr:
OP answering these fools won't lead you anywhere. Ignore them let the thread keep moving forward..

Bros no mind them, na say there question funny me, that's why I dey answer to clear the air, and to make it more interesting, u know say we get Comedians for Nairaland wai no fit make person Laugh?, even Investigator wai never ever solve Case before, for here u go see professional Book writer wai no fit read... Lol abeg make I continue were I stop jare

buygala:
No vex Sir

Oya post vehicle VIN tag as earlier requested...

Or is the VIN tag part of the parts that need to be changed in the vehicle?

Lolss E be like say them send this guy to come distract me, lols u funny sha, I no want sell the car so no need for VIN, what apps me make I send u the Video of transformation make u take relax for now, 07031112795

peeps4u:
You didn't answer my question. You stated in your earlier post that you've spent about 1m so far and the car is still a good buy as you can sell it for 1.6m. I am asking if the acclaimed 1m includes the 630/650k for the purchase of the car or the 1m is the total amount spent on transformation alone?

bros, I replied u, check well, I said it was gotten for 650k, cuzz I included the Battery I bought that same day, the seller didn't give me a working Battery, on paper is 630k, so my estimate for everything I will be spending is 1M including Purchase Transformation in total, ... I hope it's clear?? If u doubt send me a msg on what apps let me forward it to u.. Thanks.. Where I stop for the gist abeg Una all dey distract me oh this Nairaland people sef

See waiting I go see in person, when I went for inspection, owner tell me for phone say it's CLEAN IN AND OUT, BARELY USED BUT NOT FIRST BODY, FRESH AS TOKS,..

THIS WAS THE CAR ADVERTISED ONLY, LOOK ING FRESH AND DOPE ABI, MY PEOPLE? oya make una wait make I show una waiting I go see in person....

Another Point to note : get a trusted Mechanic oh, some mechanics can get influenced by the seller to tell u the car is in perfect order so to bribe him with small thing, not just any mechanics oh, some sellers are so desperate to sell, pictures coming soon everyone, 80% done

Guys, Number one Rule to ask from a buyer when u want to inspect a car here on nairaland or other places are this..... 1: ask the seller if him go give u a good Car battery? ..... Na so after we negotiate finish this mumu seller say Battery no dey, the one wai we use start test the car na for another car, Carey dead battery put for inside, na so we Waka that day dey look for Belgium battery buy, last last we see néw one for 23 k or so,..... For what ever reason dey do that I have no idea. Maybe them want sale the good battery get small chop on top.
2nd Point, ask the seller if he won't remove the radio, this point, my guy go buy Toyota picnic, na so after we go print change of ownership come back Radio dey miss, when we asked he said he isn't selling it with the radio after we thought he advertised that car with the radio in it, we just feel say we fit get radio for 5k for Ladipo, so we didn't just bother.
Guys sincerely those small things, u go just feel say who go want remove radio or battery from car wai them want sale, some mumu sellers dey do that shit, trust me, na waiting them do me for this car, except for the radio which isn't working but in it.....
