Default What would YOU do ?

ok as many of you know i ordered a JDM Front end conversion approx 2 weeks prior to xmas , it was supposed to take 9-12 days to get here and i still havent seen it , i have called a million times and there supposedly a dock workers strike of some sort going on keeping it from shippin , he told me i could pay for AIR shippin but it would be like 800 dollars , FUCK THAT ... or i could cancel and get my money back , would you wait for it not knowing how long it could be or get the money back and just work with what i can get here in the states ... if i cancel i will have 2700 to do whatever... suggestions ?

2700 won't get you something outrageous, but do something "nice" with the engine. Swap in a GSR motor or something and dress it up really nice. IMO a nice engine bay is better than a body kit and etc.
