Default Help me clean my garage out

Hey guys, been awhile since I been on here. I have a few things I'd like to get rid of in my garage, just wanted to see if anyone on here wanted them before I tried other avenues. Here is what I have:
-black front and rear lip for 03-05 neon $75 obo
-centerforce dual friction clutch part #df325417 $450obo

Both items are brand new. I will not ship the lip because it costs too much. Unless you want to pay the hundreds to ship. I am in northern Michigan for anyone interested in the lip, otherwise I fear I am going to throw it in my trash can to get it out of my way. Any yes, I still have the neon. It is running like new at 102,000 miles. I just did the timing belt, water pump, thermostat, idler pully, and serpentine belts. So it should be good for awhile longer now.

would like to get the lip, but you are about a 5-6 hr drive each way..( from the 45th parallel reference , i am assuming around traverse city? or Leland? we used to vacation in Kalkaska when i was a kid. only reason i know the time offhand)and the rough math would put me near another $75 in gas (round trip).

still it'd only be $150.....(he says not knowing what they cost elsewhere)

Yes, I'm around the Traverse City area. I really want to get this thing out of my garage, I have it hanging off the rafters right now so it stays out of my way. I would love to put it on my car but there is too much snow and my car is too low it'd be wrecked in one snow storm. I daily drive it year round. 100+ inches of snow every year.

I'd love to take it off your hands if I didn't need it shipped. If you ever come out to California, let me know!

Yes Darth, I haven't been out to California just yet. But chances are if I am I likely won't be driving out there, lol. I would love to ship the lip because it would have been gone a long time ago it just costs so damn much. It costs more to ship it then I am asking for it. And as for the clutch, I was going to turbo my car a few years back and I abandoned that plan. If anyone knows someone who needs this clutch let me know, I am asking lower then retail for a NEW never used clutch. I believe it also can be used in non turbo talon/laser cars. And the guy from Ohio, if you want this I could probably come south a couple hours (grand rapids or lansing) to meet you or if you are up in my neck of woods, literally the woods, lol then let me know.

"guy from Ohio" here, I really need to stop thinking out loud on the internet....
I love the look of the Lip, but alas, even @ my current stock ride height, there are a few places around here my stock bumper bottoms out(transitioning to certain roads from certain parking lots, etc.) I can just see that getting 100x worse with the lowered clearance. And while it's no where the Amount you get up there in Hoth, i mean Michigan, we get enough snow i could see it being a winter driveability issue as well, (Also getting ready to ship out to Texas for vacation), so all in all, while i would love to have the part, and the price is definitely right, all signs point to "i'm gonna have to pass", but good luck.

- Unless you know any G.I.T.'s(Grease monkey's In Training), heading to, or currently attending UNOH (University of Northwestern OHio, lots of Michigan kids in their auto/diesel and/or motorsports programs), which just happens to be in my town. in which case we might be able to work a deal.

It took me about 4 times reading your post to actually understand what you meant, but no I don't know anyone attending that university. I will get rid of this thing one way or another.
