Do it, but ask for compensation. And remind them about the chip.

They have a whole lot full of brand new Z's and they want yours for a commercial? hmm....

Sounds like they don't want to fix the problem, yet "give" you something in exchange to make you feel better about it.

More info?

Naw, I dont want to put my car on their commercial.. I just don't want it =\
Its a good place, but they chipped the front little mud guard. I didnt notice till after I got it home. They're commercials are way cheesy and they're going to want me to say "I get my oil changes here, and I get great customer service all the time" and they want me to stand next to my car and smile lol.

Its not at all comercial worthy. lol. Its a local commercial for the local stations. I dont know if they do that in LI. Its just a silver Z w/ work wheels and an exhaust.. I told em no, and they havn't called me since. Im sure they found another Z owner or used their own Z.
