Hand to god, the only thing I'm really interested in selling is my car. Which you can have for the one time offer, low low price of whatever my pay off is at the moment. I really am looking at getting a Z, was dead set on a 370, then realized there was no way in hell I was gonna pay 35k for a year old example with 25k on the clock, and wound up lurking here trying to learn more about the end cycle Z33 with the 300hp motor.

Ifn ya need to edit the post, feel free, its ya'lls forum I'm just visiting.

Had a detail done by him, great job, great price. He also does tint, and does minor body work and painting.

Had my car detailed by him on Saturday, good to his word, great price, and got me in and out at the time he said he would.
caution: if you have a hard to match paint color do not use him. i spent $600 with him to have body parts that do not match. he tried twice and failed twice. nice guy but he couldnt get my ppw to match.

Default thanks for the heads up!

Thanks for the heads up Nexx, when I was there last he had a paint matching machine, not sure when you went to him last, but think it's a relatively new addition. I'll let everyone know how it comes out.

thanks again!!

I just tried to call Steve's Auto Refinishing and it is no longer a working number. Are you sure you posted it correctly?

Tunerlifestyletv Window Tinting
  • National Lifetime Warranty
  • Llumar window films
  • No color change warranty guarantees the tint will not turn purple
  • Perfect cut and fit
  • Roll up windows micro-edged for that factory look. No visible gaps
  • One piece rear glass
  • Invisible dot matrix on rear window (Corvette's, etc.)
  • Appointments required
  • Over 15 years of automotive window tinting experience

Customer Review
"Even though this business is in a residential garage/workshop, don't let the location fool you. The window tinting service and prices are the best I have seen. It only took 1.5 hours to get my vehicle tinted and the prices are the best that I have seen for Llumar. The installer is very professional and you can see that he has many years of experience, just take a look at his website! I guess in this economy it makes sense to work out of your own home rather than to paying leasing fees. What an idea!"

Check out the tint samples on the site. Currently offering a $99 special for 350z members on Llumar ATR Charcoal!

Rich's Performance Muffler shop in Wylie is fantastic. Owned and operated by Rich Rigsby. He built by custom magnaflow duals and they are awesome. I also know of a guy on g35driver.com that had header work by rich and he loved the quality of the work. Prices are decent in my opinion, maybe a little high but you most definately get what you pay for there. The shop is located in Wylie off of highway 78. Not sure of the exact address but they have a website. richsperformancemuffler.com
chech it out he has pictures and sound clips of a lot of his work. They are also a fully functioning automotive repair shop as well.

Can anyone help me change my spark plugs? No shop on the planet seems to have the time to do it... and if they do, they're rapists when it comes to prices.
