I'll be honest: looks like some nice work, although as has been mentioned there are some problems (tires, fork brace, etc.). But to answer your question, most folks on this forum do stuff themselves. They want the bike that looks like the before photo, not the after photo. You're marketing to the wrong folks. That being said, you must've been paying shop rates to get $4k into that bike; I don't see how doing it yourself could add up to that.
