Just keep me posted. If you wanna talk at the next meet about a potential date we'll go from there. As long as those guys have plenty of notice it shouldn't be hard to get quite a few of them out.

I'll see what I can arrange on the roundel.

I'm going to PM you the info for the guy that did my car in a minute. He's and older, kind of rough around the edges fella, but he does damn good work and his prices are reasonable. Not to mention you sit in his garage and watch TV while he does the work so you can watch him work and take notes!



EDIT: I figured it'd be easier just to post stuff up here in case anyone else wants some tinting done.

I'm sure there won't be any issues... I've heard some stories about the local BMW crowd; however, at least 4 of us at the dinner on Saturday were previous Subaru owners and ALL of these guys were pretty cool. It should be a good time.

And yes, I'll change the date and location now. Thanks for the reminder!

" BTW, "ESSO" just sounded cool... we obviously wouldn't discriminate against ANY Subaru owner (or former owner) that wants to come up and "represent!" "

just like it says on the first page,..... woot woot!!! we all come together under one common ground............ SUBARU!!!

and on that note im going to bed, night all!!!

The local BMW crowd is usually a bunch of older engineer nerd types. With lots of concern for gas mileage,...and willing to share with you the details of the 20 hours they spent making some special tool that saves them 4 seconds on each oil change.

They're never rude,...just old and generally nerdy.

When I was last in the club (2 years ago) this was one of the 2 Bimmers I rocked. The other was 3 serries I tracked and DD'd.

I've just heard some real stories of general doucheyness... Not really RUDE, per se, but the types that spout out at the mouth when they have no clue WTF they're talking about. "More money than brains," if you will. I'm not judging though, since they are just unconfirmed rumors...

And you should seriously get another 850i... regardless of whether it's FAST they just look oh so pimp!
