well you said add it up so i did. I used your highest numbers and came up with $5345 which is a long ways off from "over 9,000.00" . I also doubt there is 500$ invested in the frame, unless an outside fabricator was paid to mod it. I don't think you can justify your work to build as $500 either, but thats just me.
