As a note on sealants, the guy I sold the to just texted me last night asking what I used on the car because it's still beading up and he wants to use the same stuff.

5 months later is quite an endorsement of the turtle wax stuff.

I actually bought :tits: a hotdog and got myself a Diet Pepsi on the way out, tried a bite of the dog, honestly quite good. I'll probably grab that deal for $1.50 every visit moving forward :lolol: Their hot dogs are legit. If I'm ever there around lunch time I'll usually get one as $1.50 can't be ...

The other guy next door has 440i with a but he’s a dickhead. I think someone has a C8 in here too.

Summer mode engaged! These wheels are going to be a MAJOR pain to clean that’s for sure. New floor jack is 5/7. And it’s nice having those little adapter puck things. Recoded my headlights with bimmercode. Gonna mess around with ambient lighting too since the standard options kinda suck. In the pict...

I just got back. $183 today. :tits: was impressed we spent under $200. I’m questioning what we bought for $183. Costco is :waxer: I bought some grass seed for $60, two cases of protein shakes for :tits: at $32 each, those were the biggest ticket. Got a good amount of groceries. Still, too much mone...

I went today and blew $295

Even with that unexpected $50 I was only at $165 today today

There are good detailing products everywhere these days, honestly. I use The Rag Company for all things microfiber, including wash mitts. https://www.amazon.com/stores/page/DF6F5F07-497D-496A-9218-CF22586184E6?ingress=0&visitId=072748b2-a9ac-4dd8-a8cc-19bd613dbdb4&lp_query=the%20rag%20compa...

Not sure he’d appreciate it.

He has a 5.0 on google with 53 reviews.

5.0 on yelp but only 4 reviews.

So far so good. He said the film goes back about a half inch behind the badges. Replaced both pillars that were bubbling as well as the the film he put over my sidemarkers as those were bubbling too. It’s just funny to me that he can tell me not to use a pressure washer while standing next to the pr...

That's the plan.

This guy's work was getting absolutely shredded by the bmw bros. Another ppf installer even chimed in and was all

Picking it up this afternoon. Hopefully he actually fixed it and if I see more shit under the film.....

Ah balls. Yeah way too small for the child fortresses that are rear facing car seats.

It's like... -esque in size by my estimation.

The caddy and alfa are about a class size down in rear seat space when compared to a 3 series which is why they got dq'ed when I was looking.

Peepin.

Hopefully this shop doesn't total the car. Car seems ok… buttttt I see dust specs under the film . :lolgasm: 3M film also smells like a 55 year old lawyer from Kansas https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExNGZtMjZqdGlra2E4YTl4bTZ3eHJwbHk1MDBucTF6N3RoeWVxa2sxdCZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYn...

Car has been dropped off at the detailer of doom. When I pulled it out of the garage I thought of checking the passenger side too. It’s way worse. In what world is this acceptable? Of course he wasn’t there this morning so I had to show his helper all the stuff that needs fixing. When I brought up t...

New 4runner looks hot. I'm sure the TurdPro will be like $80k.

You drove the truck 300 miles in 6 months, and you're looking to add a 3rd vehicle....? :wat: Replace it with something more fun that I’d drive more The clear answer is either CTR/ITS or M3. It just depends on how much $$$ you want to spend. Go put out some feelers to honduh :dillerman: and see if ...

If it was done right the first time this wouldn’t be an issue.

Is there a jcw steering wheel, shifter, and ebrake for this year? That’d be

Oh wow they are fully backing him on this … :disgust: Unfortunately not unexpected by a newer company.. easier to stiff-arm the consumer than to acknowledge you didn’t fully vet your “licensed installer”. :dat: I think he was actually just another installer up in New Hampshire. I looked up other vi...

Edited. Bolded is from the rep. Regular text are my comments

So I’m making a list of sports cars that would be within each price bracket that are decent … 1. GR86 (30-40k) 2. Miata (30-40k) 3. Type R Shitvic (40-50k) 4. GT premium (50k) 5. M2 (60-70k) 6.

The rep wants me to give him another shot. They don't want to break trim which is why the fender badges weren't removed. Because apparently I'd be paying for replacements if they break it? So, taking it to a professional detailer and they don't trust themselves to remove this stuff? :really: Bubbles...

The fender badges seem particularly egregious to me. They're so easy to take off as there's no adhesive to remove or anything. Pros do it no problem. Don't give me bs about them snapping.

Now playing phone tag with a US rep from covrgard.
