Capleys Paint & Body on Dickerson Pike close to Summit Medical Center
They did a really good job on my friends dads Supra. Tell me if you have heard anything about them. Yea I mean the Mercedes is fast enough, but Im not a fan of them. He wants a sedan though so either. Lexus LS600h Bentley Flying Spur or another Mercedes.

Yea for some reason my dad only wants a car in the Long wheelbase version
so like all the sporty big sedans are out of the question, except for well Mercedes. I think he should definitely do Bentley or wait for the Aston Martin Riptide? or Porsche Panamera? Those both are sexy. We will wait and see though, because he wants to be a little economical so the Lexus LS600h is looking pretty good

Hey Volks, so I am going to have to bring the ride in to get the wheels/tires rebalanced as they have had a vibration since I got them last week. Tire-Rack will reimburse me the cost of the balance...but I think it might be a bad tire, which they will take care of as well. I know you guys have a Roadforce, but I am worried about my rims getting scratched (the finish seems like it would be scratched easily). Also, do you guys torque the lug bolts or just throw them on there with an airgun?
Oh, and I would assume that I wouldn't need to take the JB2 out for this, since it is just a rotation and not maintenance.

I actually don't have one, never have brought the car in before. I talked to Wayne, I think it was, on the phone, but that was just to explain the situation, I didn't set up an appointment or anything. I am going to try to bring it in Friday.

So Tischer is the cheapest for OEM Mtech kit out there which I will be getting. Volks do you know if Capleys Paint & Body on Dickerson Pike close to Summit Medical Center is good and well reputable, or even a well Certified or w/e body shop? I know they did a good job on my friends car.

911-i havent had a car that came in that had work done by them yet..so i cant really say? i know crest sucks, i know vogely sucks, the dent shop seems to have done the best ive seen so far and even they arent good enough for me..so idk?
tn3-wayne was working for my SA yesterday for a little bit since she was out sick. id suggest scheduling it up just ask for karen and tell her you want me to do it...balancing is an hour. now if one of the tires is jacked up or i have to phase match the tires it may be a bit more...but we will hope thats not the case. let me know if your going to be bringing em in. |

My friend messed with my head yesterday!!!
He said if it was him he would not spend that much money on a bodykit. At least he said it looked good, but now I'm like ahh because I was going to order it today. Now Im thinking about waiting if someone hits me or something because he was like, you don't even know how long your going to have the car so save up for the next one to do stuff. Grrrrr what should I do?!? I do love the Mtech though. Maybe I should buy something that will last for awhile...a Valentine 1..... even though I have money for both the bodykit and V1. Then he was saying that it will cost a lot to paint it, Im in such a squeeze or however you call it. Rant over... I do this too much haha, now I dont know if I should get Mtech

Volks- I am going to call today to make the appointment for Friday. When I talked to Wayne, he said $80 to do the balance. TireRack said they would reimburse up to $80, but the lady said that they have done up to $100 depending on the situation. How much would the phase balance add?
EDIT: I talked to Ryan Lewis, he said he talked to Karen and you were pretty busy this week so I wouldn't be able to have you do it until next week. I need to go ahead and get this figured out so I made an appointment with Ryan for Friday at 0915. You guys won't do anything to the computer where I would need to take the JB2 out, would you?

Thanks man, when you see it come in on Friday, make sure you tell whoever works on it to be nice!
Oh, and I told Ryan that I knew you and that is why he asked Karen what your availability was and she said you were slammed on Friday. Oh well.
