o_O? no $$ xam?



i stopped by this other place today, near my apartment in san jose. they said if i bring everyone, itll be $150 each person. lifetime warrenty, bubbles or discoloration gets fixed free. n they dont cut around the brake light. which is a good thing.

i guess ill make a run w/ wonderz this weekend to the place in the mission. whichever place is cheaper, lets go there

cool, np.

and asahi.. yeah, i should be at your place around 2 or 3. i'll definitely call u before i come over.
oh yeah, how do you think they gonna do the tint if we have like 4 or 5 cars? do we have to wait there for a few hours for them to finish?

and if you know any place in sf that does cheap oil change, let me know... like i give them everything (filter and oil) and pay them like $10 and they'll help me change it. do we have places like that in sf?

hm.. i think there are. i duno tho. havent had my oil changed in sf. only once so far at sears. n then my 10k mark hit, so im getting the oil done during maintanance @ honda. why dont u change it urself? i should get off my *** n learn too.

the place in san jose says itll take 2-3 hours each car. about other cars.... i doubt we'll get more than 4. i think xam is alrdy out? so that means its just 3...

oh and the guy i talked to wants 2 kno what kind of BMW it is. he said itll be 150 for each car, regardless of 5 or 7 windows. cuz it dont matter (?).... but for the beemer, he has 2 see which one it is first. no idea why.

the BMW is a 325i sedan. maybe he want to make sure its not some SUV or something.

so for the tint, do we just wait there like 6 hours then? i mean i don't wanna rush them, but what do we do for that time, and i don't think my friend's comfortable leaving the car to them.

and for the oil change, i just don't wanna get myself dirty changing it, haha.

u woman! just change it urself, so i can learn too

2-3 hours each car, once urs is done u can bounce if u need 2 go somewhere. as for leaving the car with them, i have no idea. i dont want em 2 take my sub n amp or nothing. lol, but i doubt theyll be like that unless their bitches.

if u wana wait there, just bring a laptop or something. ill try n see wahts in the area, maybe a pool hall or somethin.

haha, there's nothing to learn in changing oil other than try not to get the oils on your clothes.

oh and when do you want to go, this weekend or next weekend?
'cause if we do next weekend, we'll have more time to shop around and stuff.
and just to make sure, the sj place said we can still have $150 even if we bring 3 cars, right? i can talk to you more on saturday.

yeah. well depending if xam wants us 2 wait, or what ur bmw friend wants 2 do. i was thinking go 2 the mission place n check prices. then whichever one is cheaper. we go there. if the mission one is cheaper, then we just do it on the spot, n u call ur friend up. if its the san jose one, then we can work taht out. im always up here during the week, i live 3 blocks away from the tint place

just a quick update on this.
asahi and i went to the tint place in sf today and the place said they can do $170 for the civics, but they wanted an OUTRAGEOUS $220 for my friend's BMW just 'cause its a BMW. and their lifetime warranty doesn't cover the 2 front side windows.
and asahi gonna check on the place in sj next week to see what's up.

--------


my car is there right now, getting tinted. Normally if ur getting a group rate ur supposed 2 have all the cars there, but the guy was koo about it hooked it up n said we can come separately, as long as im there everytime 2 let em kno.

its $150 each for the 3 civics (me, wonderz, xam) and $200 for the BMW 325i. (cuz the bmws are a bitch to get to the windows in the door panel or some ****, i got no idea.) oh and its cash or credit card, no checks.

u guys can go anytime u want, i just gotah be there wen u go. so they kno that ur with me n ur getting the group rate... i live down here in san jose near the tint place during the week. n come bak 2 SF on the weekends.

wonderz u said on the fone that ur gona go this friday right, n then saturday w/ the bmw? let me kno wahtsup so i can work out my schedual.

n xam, when did u think u wanted 2 get urs done
