I'd like to get my carbon blasted

in the next year, any place in Charlotte, NC recommended for it?
2009 w/ 45k miles, so it's not urgent but getting to be time.

Im at 50k and would like to get mine done in the next 10k as well. We should try to get a group and get a discount price on it!

I'm in...lemme know when and where

Cool, I think euro wise is getting a carbon cleaner very soon, and i will talk to the owner and see what we can arrange and see if he can give us special pricing if we get 5 to commit.

Mike, owner of Eurowise, said they would be willing to do walnut blasting for $450 if we can get 5 people to commit. I just talked to performance BMW in Chapel Hill and they quoted ~$600 so this is a nice savings! Lets get 2 others in the area to commit and make this happen within the next few months.

bootay · 10-08-2012, 09:00 AM

cool - I'm up for it, and eurowise already does the work on my ride (being 5 minutes away), so that's perfect.

nccoupe · 10-14-2012, 02:09 PM

lemme know a time frame and i will try to get over that way

james008 · 10-15-2012, 11:53 AM

Cleans your intake valves with all the carbon that is built up in these cars. Most people do it 50-60k or so. It seems like we have enough people.

Since a lot of holidays are coming up soon would you guys rather try to plan something like this before Thanksgiving holidays or after the new year like the second week of January.

bootay · 10-15-2012, 06:22 PM

January is better for me.

james008 · 10-15-2012, 07:12 PM

Im good with either. Bootay you in Charlotte?

statelax3 · 11-01-2012, 07:41 PM

i am in charlotte and would commit to the eurowise deal at 450. if you guys get it lined up shoot me a pm and i am in.

james008 · 11-02-2012, 10:09 AM

I have seen some other threads where they got a group buy at $400. I am still in at $450 but maybe they will go a little lower?

sofresh · 11-02-2012, 10:00 PM

I had mines done recently and wow could I notice a difference. I have recently come back from a deployment and now have 80k+ on mines.

nccoupe · 11-02-2012, 10:25 PM

Some chick totalled my car or I would be right there with you guys to get this done and maybe a little finals well. I should have another one within a week or so...

yep, in CLT just a few miles from Eurowise (had my DPs and FMIC put on there).

statelax3 · 11-03-2012, 08:43 PM

so who is in on this? i would do it Monday if we have the people. i am 100% in and ready. who else is?

james008 · 11-04-2012, 10:51 PM

I'd prefer after new year traveling here and there for holidays.

marcus321 · 11-06-2012, 02:14 PM

I already talked to Eurowise and we are going to go ahead and do it in January. I will update you guys in a few weeks with exact details. Most likely we will break up over a course of a weekend. I will have exact details soon guys!

Hey, 135 N54 here, I'd be down with that.

Was going to get the stuff to do it myself, but I live in an apartment and its not really feasible to store all the tools lol.

marcus321 · 12-11-2012, 01:40 PM

there is another thread for the Performance BMW of Chapel Hill which is closer to you and offers a better price then Eurowise. We are doing the group buy there now.
