Welp, got the kit yesterday. Dealership is going to put it on tomorrow and warranty for $300. Will post the before/after pictures with measurements when its all done tomorrow. So here is how it all played out.
I am an idiot and hit the "buy it now" option on eBay, having never used eBay I thought it would just add it to my cart so I could check if there are taxes etc. I also saw the kit on Bonanza for $7 less from the same guy and thought, what the heck, $7 is $7. Bought it off there. All on Sunday.
Get an email from eBay asking me to pay for the item a bit later and I was very confused, googled a bit and found out what I really did. I messaged the seller back the same day knowing its Fathers day, expecting to not hear anything, asking if he could cancel the eBay since I bought on Bonanza etc. Thinking I was about to have to pay for 2 kits. He messaged back a few hours later say no worries and he would cancel the eBay order and ship the Bonanza.
I had also asked if he was willing to negotiate any on the price, myself being active duty, with proof of service(I sent a picture of me in uniform). Instead of dropping the price he said he had a kit with the TRD logo's and all still on it and he would send me that as a "thank you for your service". I was very ecstatic because call me stupid but I like the TRD logo because I think it adds a type of "OEM" to the truck.
