I live in upstate NY and had a gentleman ask me to powder coat a set of 18” wheels gloss black for his civic.
Quoted him $1025 for tire removal, sandblast, powder coat, tire mount, and balance. I feel like it seems fair for everything but I’ve gotten some pushback from a few people on the price. Thoughts?

Felt rubbing/grinding on low speed turns and could feel it in floorboard. TPMS sensor and wheel temp have been going off for front driver side wheel (suspected problem wheel bearing). After going for drive with mechanic, was told it was 100% a wheel bearing. Was a little hesitant since the car only has 48k miles but I’ve gone to this shop for a while and they’ve always done me good. Got the car back and the same issue persists, but now every once in a while, while turning I’ll hear a single click/clink coming from what seems like below the front of the car.
For some extra context, recently had my front control arms replaced, transmission mount, and passenger side engine mount.
Any ideas as to what’s going on?

Had to get a wheel bearing on my car replaced and it was more expensive than anticipated. Currently have $5.97 until Friday and just need to buy groceries and fill my tank. I would appreciate the help!

Trying to diagnose a ticking sound my girlfriends Subaru is making.
- ticks on idle
- ticking speeds up with acceleration
- ticking slows down with deceleration but increases in noise when decelerating
- ticking goes away and comes back randomly
Trying to figure out how urgent of an issue this is and any insight would be awesome
Found him in a shipment of diamond plate. Was told the shipment came from Florida. I’m located in New York.
Here's my current specs for my pc
CPU - Intel Core i7 -10700f @ 2.90GHz
GPU - ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 3080 Trinity OC
RAM - Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 64GB DDR4 @ 3600MHz
Motherboard - ROG STRIX Z590-E Gaming WiFi
Power Supply - Corsair RM850x
Essentially I know my performance is mainly bottlenecked by my CPU. What I'm trying to figure out is if I just get an 11th gen Intel (such as the 11900k) and call it a day or suck it up and upgrade my CPU to a 14th gen as well as buy a new motherboard and make the grossly expensive switch to DDR5.
If there's any other paths I could take here, any feedback is welcome, thanks
Feel free to ask if I have anything else to offer too
