Austin dinner thread

ToadHollow · 09-20-2009, 11:48 PM

since I'm not the ultimate Import fan I didn't bother posting any of the import shots here. The few I did manage to get were taken late and didn't come out as well as I would have liked.
Congrats to Terrance!!

ToadHollow · 09-20-2009, 11:54 PM

Here are just a few quick shots of M3FTW's SG/M3 I detailed today. It didn't need that much other than a good cleaning so no before shots ....... I was happy with the results though!

Alright guys time for me to roll out everyone take care and it was fun while it lasted. The only action my car will see for a long while will be my 29 yr old brother and my 57 yr old dad driving it maybe once a week to work poor car. Well I'll try to keep up with the thread and drive safe everyone. Later

Take care Kevin

we will miss you for sure

Terrance28 · 09-23-2009, 02:31 PM

I still think you are gonna find your way back to Hood, this place is like a black hole.

JacobT · 09-23-2009, 06:56 PM

Hey Kevin,

Take care and we'll see you back here soon

Terrance28 · 09-24-2009, 06:58 PM

You will not believe the nonsense I just went through with garlyn shelton BMW. My driver side fog light has been fogging up and lately the headlight stopped working. So I took it in because they are close and thought they couldn't possibly screw this up. The SA comes and get me and tells me he needs to show me something. He shows me a quarter size hole in the back of the fender liner, and then tried to tell me this is the reason the headlight stopped working. I told him that is complete nonsense and that hole has been there since I had the car. I pointed out that the side grill on the side can also let water in but I don't see you blaming it on that. I also wanted to know if this is how crappy BMW parts are that a $1200 headlight can go out with a simple sprinkling of water. He just kept on telling me thats the reason and they won't fix it. I was pissed at myself for going back to this stupid ass dealership and should've went to austin in the first place. And to make shit worse they scuffed and scratch my brand new bumper I just had done. I didn't notice it until I reached home, and if I know those assholes like I think I know them they will say it was there already. I hate that fucking dealership and will never return to it. I'm even thinking about filing a BBB claim with them if they don't fix my bumper. I sat there and waited for 2 and a half hours for nothing just to end up worse off than I was in the first place.

TTexan · 09-24-2009, 07:45 PM

I always go to the Austin dealership, take good care of you there (plus there are usually decent looking women in the waiting area).

randomquickness · 09-24-2009, 08:17 PM

^TRUE TRUE

and easy terrance...we're gonna have to rate this thread NWS with that kinda language, although I felt that same frustration last weekend AT the austin dealership!

ToadHollow · 09-24-2009, 08:53 PM

When did you go to the dealer T? You could've tagged along the wet & dreary ride back to Austin! lol

Sucks man ... I know there was absolutely NOTHING wrong with the bumper since I was commenting on how well it turned out today. I wonder why the dealer has such a stick up their a$$???

Side note ...
I had to relocate the PS reservoir since IT was actually into the hood when closed. Otherwise, everything is perfect! Wheels are getting done up next week ... $125 per wheel, curb rash fixed and the paint has a lifetime warranty against ANY problem with the paint. Black Forest wanted $1300 to do the wheels, install the intake & alignment. What a joke ......

Terrance28 · 09-24-2009, 09:01 PM

Hey Tony i'm sending you a text let me know what you think.

Made it to Korea ok Terrance you have all the luck. James you should see my front bumper from our little joy ride when you were home on R&R I detailed the car before I left that bumper is horrible at least 200 imperfections in the paint from the road debris you kicked up.

AAAAAhhhhhh......yeah

as for the debris in the road kicking up on your bumper ....... AAAAhhhh I did'nt do it.

AAAAAhhhh..... I think it was the wind or maybe that State Trooper

all I can say is ....... I am Sorry Kevin that wind was really kicking up that day because the front of my car got a good chipping to, even my painted reflectors

Terrance28 · 09-25-2009, 10:24 PM

BMW of Austin hooked me up with a brand new headlight. They also updated my software, didn't ask them to they said they had to to program the new headlight. I was pre 29.2 but this new software is not that bad at all.

Pay2play · 09-26-2009, 04:17 AM

No biggie that was a fun day.

Good stuff Austin BMW took care of you. Constance has to take my car today to them. I wonder what kind of loaner she is going to get. They have to reset everything in my car and I WILL LOOSE MY AA SOFTWARE

but that's cool AA is going to give me a more aggressive software and send me my catless exhaust pipes I ordered and I will take off my AA high flow cats

a little more HP and some more loud exhaust sound I like

. I will let you know when I need the ECU taken out again Terrance.
