You wouldn't happen to work at SAIC and own a white Nismo would you?

You guys wanna meet up and roll into the hard times springfield meet monday?

I live in springfield so it's just a couple miles down the road :P

EDIT: Unrelated question... Where do you guys get your brakes done? I need my rotors resurfaced and new pads put on. I could do the pads but I figure I'd just let the shop do it when they resurface the rotors, only problem is the places I usually go to apparently won't put the pads on unless you but them from the shop. But I already have the pads.

Ah cool. My buddy works at SAIC in Kingstowne and told me there was a dude there with a white Nismo. I figured maybe it was you since you said you work close to there.

Merchants tire told me on the phone they wont do it unless I buy from them. I usually go there because my buddy works there and I get work free sometimes. And another place we take our work trucks to will take my pads, but they do horrendous brake jobs for some reason. Wouldn't trust my car there.

Now, anyone know of a paint shop? ****tard on GMU campus fell off his longboard in the rain and it smashed into my car. He then took off. Have a deep ding in my front bumper as well as several what appear to be stress cracks. I've about had it with stupid people this past week.

For brakes look into moores automotive or currys both great shops.

Body shop NT auto body they do a great job work with Nissan of Alexandria so there paint jobs are as close as you can get to dealer quality. I had them fix my door after someone keyed my door. Perfect color match to my PPW z

I actually found that the ****er hit my bumper so hard it snapped two (supports?) on the inside of the bumper. Now I have two chunks missing and several cracks. I talked to my insurance company and apparently they wont raise my rates if I claim it. So I will look into that.
