I told vicLX to post when he knows what time he's coming into town. I know it will be in the evening off the 401 (Canadian Tire would be a good spot at white oaks).

Hey guys, I just posted this on LAC, but figured you'd want to know too.
KRISPY KREME is setting up shop in London! They're opening a store @ Southdale & Wonderland.
They dropped a bunch of donuts off at my work to make the announcement. YES! lol

Oh yah, Krispy Kreme!!! Thanks for the info.

Nice buy on the InJen and DC header, but why through the dealership? They charage an arm and a leg for aftermarket parts.
My InJen CAI currently is a SRI. I'm waiting for spring just as bad as you are right now. Plus, by then I'll also be able to put on my new CF Altezza grille. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

I called up several shops around ontario...including Unathorized, and received quotes for the parts I wanted. I take the best quotes I get, give them to Chris Butters. And he either matches them or beats them. So London Honda's okay with me.
I do intend on giving unathorized some business though. They're great guys, and ALWAYS give me the lowest quotes! Good shop to deal with.
Another reason I go through london honda is, they won't void my warranty if they install my parts. My car's only a year old, so warranty is key!
Now let me eat my KK donuts!

Yeah, it's a lot nicer. They just need something nicer to put in the center of their shop. Right now they have a stand in the middle with emblems, engine loom and other little things for sale. They need something that really stands out for the center of the shop. But other than that, .

Really!! Does the price matching apply to everyone, or are you on a "preferred customer" list? Either way, thats awesome to hear. I'm looking for some rims shortly. Do you think you can hook me up with your connection?

I got my car from Westgate and I mentioned about making mods and installing myself. They didn't say if it would void the warranty or not. They said they'd have to prove that THAT mod was the cause of the problem. ex. put in a CAI and shocks blow - they're covered! But I see where you're coming from. Sometimes its better to pay the shop rate.

Your best bet would be to just walk in there. Find Chris, and just ask him..."what kind of prices can you get me on parts?" It's a business, they'll be eager to sell you parts, and they're really trying to spread the word on their little performance shop.
Sorry I can't really help you out bro. But I'm sure if you do like I said....mention you got a quote for $$ at this shop..."can you match that?"
Good things will happen.

"nonono, im sorry... while installing that CAI its possible that you unbalanced the car by replacing those stock components... you'd be surprised what an extra ounce of weight can do to that front right shock.... im sorry, your warrenty on your shocks is void" [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]



just be careful.. they can come up with a lame excuse for anything
